  1. Replaced a handbrake cable. was really hard to get the clips that hold it onto the rear beam off and the freezing cold didnt help I now have a fully working hand brake :D
  2. :lol: Is it wrong that even tho I know I cant afford another car (let alone another corrado) I've started looking at rado's for sale :ignore:
  3. Is that the one in couldards garage? I know of one also in newport that never moves, Its a engine problem I heard but its got a new charger I believe. My mates also got a nugget to and my other mate just sold one Ya that would be the one. Its moves around the house. One day it will be out front then the ext round the back :shrug: Befor I got mine I had a quick peek in the window of it and looks in good shape. Might pop over there one day and knock on the door.
  4. Im shore if some one contacted the DVLA they should be able to tell you. with this freedom of information act, might be and avenue to explore :confused4:

  6. They are genuine from VW as my gf's parents got them for me as a prezy. They got them from a VW dealer, just go to the parts desk. I belive the price is £65 but I will find out for you Thee is a pic on my members thread about half way down this page http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?f=11&t=80469&start=195

  8. Was sortting out all the documents that came with my car into a folder and found a recipt from the very fist owner. Was somthing to do with insurance around July 94 time but I know my car was registered around March 94 and on the papper it also says the car was worth £15000 at that time. Which seams strange as I thought they cost more than that new :confused4: Any ideas?

  15. I've got a simalar problem on my C I think it is the handbrake mechanisms on the back of the calipers not releasing propperly, which is casuing the brakes to stay on slightly.
