well it didnt go to heaven, i had it fixed and it been fine for the last year, although i have just bought another car so it will be going soon!! it last week snapped a spring on the front left and with the mot due in 2 weeks will be selling it for spares or repair - not going to break it! it will be an easy fix for someone but dont have the cash to buy new springs get them fitted and mot it :( so once i write my for sale thread i`ll post it up. i reckon 80,000miles in one seat is enough for anyone lol cheers guys

isnt TSR in bridgwater pretty close? never had any work done there but i`m sure someone will have to say about the quality

the loctite one with the little mesh is by far the best and yes i did buy 2 (6years ago) not needed the 2nd so far

lol been driving my car for 90k taken every bit i could off just cant be assed undoing the couple screws to get it out

meh u dont need it mines been rattling around in the booklid for ages!!! (if you find a supplier let me know :wink: )

sorry sorry sorry!! i gotta pull out im afraid :(

aww i just seen a buzzard that`d been tagged by a car flapping about on the dual carriage it actually flew into my car - i had stopped! wasnt gonna try and rescue it tho they huge!!! poor thing

im still in

cool will have to get spending tomorrow after work!!

just seen it too looks loverly!!!!!!!

read once on pistonheads a game where if you come across a MLH that you should see how many times you can overtake then slow down let them pass and repeat thhe circle... the record i think was 11 times around before they noticed!!

funnily enough i havent even bought a corrado yet!! so will spec one up to as it required

i take it its corrado`s only? what class are your cars?

give me an add i`ll be up for that if im available

mate lovely C i`m on anglesy too havent seen you around! make sure you gimme a wave although mine aint as clean and shiney as yours ben

well the car has been fine for the last few 7 years bits and bobs obviously but when your seat runner falls through the fllor and you can see through it i think it might be time to call it a day!! not sure what to do as the floor will need plating but the cost involved and the worth of the car dont really add up so its either break it, sell it as a whole for spares or get it fixed????

gutted for you 2 its terribly upsetting hitting any live creature rest assured it wasnt your fault nothing you could do about it! and yes any animal which is meant to be enclosed you have to reports it to the police (i hit a puppy once as it ran out into a 60mph road it survived with a broken hip and bit me the little **** lol and the copper told me a rhyme which listed all the animals you have to report but i cant remember it - anything like sheep, cows, goats, dog .... etc) regards ben

viewtopic.php?t=54256 my mate cai has one, its been in the garage for a long time!

c reg mk2 XR2 black mint best car i owned - rolled it lol f reg jade green mk2 golf gti - sold j reg corrado 16v - still have it i`m 31 does that make the least on average?

black clean rado in tesco bangor north wales today with isle of man plates! looked so clean i made the gf go out and clean mine

320mm for me too, cuts off the top of speedo etc as it is smaller would be a pain

ah wondered what they were called i got a set sat in my shed that need a refurb but with new tyres if anyone has an 8 wheeled car

just google forza 3 calculator theres loads of sites that`ll tell you what to set stuff as
