  1. £2,500 and keeping the car and not paying the storage costs seems the best from a bad angle... the back of a glasses guide or a cap black book would give the higher milage values you want,but dont expect it to be good news as they punish the cars values to death. from a car for sale page : http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=16866 the guide slams it, but then again it slams all Corrado's to a pulp. If i told you an N-reg VR6 with 76k and a full service history and in good nic was worth £2500 to the trade, i think we'd all be confused, and you'd be forming an orderly queue if I took one's in for that money, even if I through a couple of grand on em they'd still be the ultimate steal. Tom,the only daft thing I can think of telling them is to see if they can find you a like for like car for £2.5k cos I seriously doubt they could Roy
  2. Some Looneys heading south on the A90 yesterday, A green Vr6 and a red 16v I think ! couldnt keep up for speed cameras and Traffic cars :wink:
  3. Yeah I tried driving without P/S put it this way I felt like popeye by the end of the day :-P
  4. As far as I know it will stop the light on the switch working when you nudge it to headlights but why would it affect the blue dash bulb ? are they easy to swop ?
  5. I know it has 16v on it but are they 8v wheels ? Im just not up on the new stuff chubbz its in cracking nick btw 8) :mrgreen:
  6. thats a crackng looking motor welcome to the forum :mrgreen:
  7. How much are new outers for these rims ? and are they easy to do ?
  8. 16 valvers dont do anything until they are over 4,000 rpm
  9. Welcome !! its nice to see the Vr6's across the water looking so good I'd love to be able to keep the car as clean as tha t :mrgreen:
  10. DB9 I reckon I could stop the wifes gob with it :D
  11. I was gonna say somthing really disgusting but true about VR6 drivers or maybe it was a girl doing her lippy and hair while he was screaming his plug thru the gears... :-)
  12. I thought french crap read it all and thought hmmm french crap ! if it was so good why mod it,feckin moron :|
  13. The youngster works at a hairdressers and guess what the owner has A silver Mini trust me to open my Gob again... :|
  14. Maybe having a surname like cleary I should be more clear then as should others. I thought it was just old age and not being able to keep up with everyone else :)
  15. i hate the way u have to actually pause and work out which year it is and have a ? next to it,,,hat great ideas the UK comes out with cars like this i would ignore normally,, but then again normally if u do call them theres no answer for a few days and than all of a sudden its sold Sorry Im not up to working out the 50 series number plates it was a question as I wasnt sure, all I could think of is how come it has depreciated so much I have a Y reg car and probably couldnt afford another new car of similar spec after buying it from new. as for 'uk comes out with', Skoda sell more cars in the Uk than Rover do If we were so patriotic we would all run UK made cars owned by Uk companies A question retorical or not ends with a question mark. Comprende :?: chubbz
  16. We used to bang the dashboard on top of the clocks with the mk1 golf and funnily enough the buzzer noise used to go away along with the worry ! :wink:
  17. Kev haywire is correct 'they' are now mounting cameras usually on bridges that can read the tax disc and if not there or out of date they fire out a default on sorn or non display (£150)
  18. Its a Skoda,to some people theres still badge snobbery 51 makes it 3 year old ?
  19. My thoughts Exactly The Mini and the TT are total girlie hairdressers cars I wont even start with Puntos and their Xenon headlights ! Chubbers
  20. try 192.com there cant be many people with the surname peck out there. even if you get the parents tell them your from visa and you need his address and phone number or your going to forclose any crap like that usually works.... chubbz
  21. who would pay 8k for it ? I wouldnt guys,sorry ! when it comes to values I agree they are worth more,but coming to think of it How would you value a scirroco Storm ? Enjoy them for sure,thats why our one isnt locked away. I would pay more for a better condition car, But Im probably not in touch with the VR6/Storm Scene. I'd be more worried about pikeys ripping the storm badges off and floggin them on Ebay for £80. Sick but true. chubbz
  22. Plastic that runs along the bottom of the windscreen, it needs 3or4 of those two piece clips, Im sure nobody is surprised as thats 3 weeks of waiting for the phone call from the dealer to say they are in,thats after me walking into check twice,he took me number ! And waxoyl again for winter,engine bay and underneath Fixing a relay on the headlights and changing fuse holders to watertight ones. I'll get the headlights done today 8)
  23. Some dealers throw in a new free filter when you buy oil from them My local does Synta silva for £17.99 with the filter thrown in. Have you tried to tighten it before you undo it ? also the silver rim at the top if theres some way of giving it a tap in the right direction with a hammer screwdriver combo. They dont need to be on mega tight,hand tight and half a turn is fine . Theres other reasons for using O.E.M filters,In not sure if these ones have non returns on them. Roy
  24. Mine had the tinted Glass,No sunroof ( thank christ as I wouldnt have bought it) and spots in the grill,changed the filler neck and was debating changing the gear select and clutch cable a faultless car really... and she loved it more than me,we couldnt think of what was more modern and a classic, cue the Bannana mobile.
