ben16v replied to TomB's topic in General Car Chat
gutted mate! there seems to be a few C`s crashed recently, as you may know me&sonia are in a similar position, stripping the interior is pretty easy, did all of it in one day with a minimal of tools and experience, exterior bits like lights, sunroof etc also easy although i`m not sure your insurance will let you touch it unless you buy it back again sorry to hear it -
grill and front badge broke i`m afraid!! early bonnet is (obviously in red) and in good nick, one scratch and rain spots after its been sitting, it was only resprayed last year and a good polish would sort it! door handles both work fine Pm for pics on request
-

caiosG60 had lots of problems trying to source a fuel pump for his golf G60, there were 2 makes (i forget the names) but the pumps were part of the change-over and the pumps and senders are non-compatible, dunno if its the same for corrado`s but i`m sure it`s worth checking! :)
