  1. I never bothered joining after being gazumped by one of the main members when trying to buy a car, the price was moved on me and in turn was promised a bad time if I ever went to any meetings, not that I could have afforded his highmiler 16 valver anyway according to him ! I wont vote ham I dont think 8) Oh and local Vw dealers dont give CCGB discount anyway !
  2. so sorry about this L4 any cctv on the dual carriageway at all,just a thought. why would she wanna 3 point turn on a dual carriageway FFS ! :-(
  3. most limits with couriers is 25kg I would check out palletline and put them on a pallet or for heart attack try TNT
  4. But who is the judge of that? why would it be illegal ? if your car has 50k on it and you put a new speedo on it and change it to 50k what fraud has been done ? I just dont understand why you think there would be. if you dont ever sell the car you can put what ever milage on it you want as your not commiting a fraudulant act,ask anyone in the know. edit:Should have read dazzys reply,quite correct. oh you can know 25k off it as well cos nuggets carry the miles 8)
  5. its not illegal as theres no fraud being commited
  6. it could be a jazzed up renault fuego from the side and from the front it deflooks Jap
  7. was this padding for the bottom side or the tip drivers side
  8. sunroof leaking or the windscreen check if its water and take it from there
  9. if your planning onkeeping it..fine but 160k you are going to expect problems eve if you dont have them
  10. No wonder people get fucked off with the dealers and goto the specialists and you would get as good a job if not better. that quote is a disgrace get them to do an annual service about £100 if you supply oil and filter and get a specialist to do the rest Sod that...
  11. thanks :thumbleft: :thumb right: maybe it could fly :shock: :lol:
  12. He has a point,Im no expert just they are on and have been so far (touch wood) incredible compared to the old mk2 efforts its funny having a one click handbrake compared to seeing some of the photos of cars for sale with the handbrake rumped right up with me muttering ah it needs new calipers...
  13. I have had the water light flash on start up. I think Blinkys suggestions are correct on where to look
  14. thats terrible will, The poor corrado is fair game if nobody is watching it, jealousy is a terrible thing
  15. Does that increase value ? Na,it just makes me wonder why the original one isnt still fitted to the car chubbz
  16. mk4 ones are supposed to be an alloy so you arnt supposed to get the seizeing up the same as mk2/3 ones. I paid £66 each all in and no exchange so the old ones can go back on if cars sold at not the price I want. that was at hawcos vw in Inverness. they have been on a year and faultless. I was advised to fit a new handbrake cable whilst it was all off so did that as well,unsure if I had to fit a mk2 corrado one or not
  17. No corrado to me is worth 10k no matter what it looks like chubbz
  18. as far as I know they only introduced the 2.0 as a cat had to be fitted so they had to go higher in the horses game to overcome the cat. where as a 1.8 dones not have one. Not sure about standard vw lists but my one makes 144bhp with no mods
  19. hasnt even got a dealer front number plate on it and mine still has
  20. Rac windscreen computer lists two types of windscreen with a corrado. One has a green tint on the top of it described as rare to find. The 2nd is the one most cars have, even though I need one, the closest is sitting 200 miles away in Glasgow So not that easy to come by :| so if you wanna be a pain in the ring ask for a green tint one :-D
  21. My mitsi had an advise for slight corrsion on the rear wheel cylinders hehe testers are getting more panic stricken as its all on record to see
  22. distance selling regulations. also not fit for purpose or you could just phone visa and say you want a clawback to your card as you didnt recieve what you ordered.
  23. Inverness to Bristol then sat and exam and drove back again about 1100 miles also used to do Inverness to Cardiff and drive back again,about 1100 miles Longest without stopping at all was Inverness to Clacton on one tank of juice,roughly 540 miles. I do drive for a living though,so no probs really
