I will be on hand to assist with buffing, Eric! :)

Nearly there hopefully. Wanting to test these on another Corrado this weekend just to be sure they fit OK! It's looking like I've managed to secure some financial backing for these to buy a bunch up front (rather than getting payments off everyone THEN putting in an order), and then will open a group buy and PM everyone who expressed an interested to officially order a set from me.

Think they look awesome, Mic! CH's are one of my favourite aftermarket alloys for the Corrado, no doubt about it :)

The only hassle with the AA is dealing with them at renewal time. They always give you a ludicrous renewal price, then you have to hassle them on the phone to get it down to a sensible level. I ended up taking out one of those packages with my bank where you pay an account fee but get AA cover, mobile insurance, etc - it probably doesn't work out any cheaper than getting the cover direct from the AA but it does mean not having to go through that crap every year, so worthwhile in my book!

Canadian Corrado's had the smooth front bumper (no requirement for front license plates) - I think US ones were the same too, but not 100% on that!

One thing I think that is 'fact' though is that on early cars, full closure (when locking the doors) doesn't close the sunroof - which it will do on later Corrado's.

Lots of little spots on it like that. I'll add it to the list as I hadn't noticed it myself :(

May well be worth getting it up on ramps and doing the MOT testers test of going round with a pry bar - if it's making such a noise, you should find something obviously loose!

Very disappointing to hear that, Vaughan. Always enjoyed chatting to you at various meets over the years! My VR looking distinctly unclassy at the moment - needs a damn good clean, and that damage to the bumper sorting out!! :) Graham fired that Continental up the other day to move it out of the workshop and my god it sounded glorious. Wouldn't mind an hour behind the wheel to see what it goes like.

Awesome! Really nice to see a Corrado being used on track and punching well above its weight! Will check those track videos out when I get home :)

Engine mounts?

Fascinating! Look forward to seeing the Nothelles on the car mate! :) And yet more cracking pictures by Dave as well.. he really is seriously handy with that camera. He's ended up becoming some kind of semi-official photographer for the Sprinter - always ends up with his photo's on the covers lately!

Hurray.. We finally have someone who has some direct contact regarding this elusive Campaign. Great news!

Stick it on youtube mate and link it here :)

As VAG-hag says there's a dedicated (and lengthy) thread for this :) http://the-corrado.net/showthread.php?t=12765 Cheers.

Excellent. Have to say it really stood out for me - a motorsport style Corrado just looked fantastic and it really worked in white. Rolling shot is excellent too!

Easy. You need to remove the plastic trim underneath the glovebox and around the footwell. The heater motor is on the left hand side - will possibly have a Valeo sticker on it and you should see a four cable square electrical connector attached to it. There is a tab / latch you'll need to release which is, rather awkwardly, round the back but then you just turn it (can't remember whether it's anti or clockwise) and it just drops out.

As has been said Rog, dead easy - 10-15 minute job tops, and the only tool you need to accomplish it is the screwdriver in the factory toolkit :)

New motor needed. Mine was doing the exact same thing! Get a motor off a breaker, and I reckon you'll be back in business :)

You speak good English! Welcome to the forum :-)

Believe you need the brake calipers, carriers, pads, discs, and brake hoses. I'd buy the friction components new of course, and source the rest from a breakers.

Never fails to amaze me just what can be achieved with elbow grease though. Never thought I'd compliment someone on the condition of their catalytic converter but... looks great!

Just an upgrade to MK3 Golf 288mm brakes will see substantially better stopping power. I'd take this route using OEM discs and pads.

Yeah - looks aqua blue. Think he's just made up the colour name there! Wonder if it's leather or cloth interior. Would certainly benefit from a few more pictures.

My car history is as follows: 1 ) Peugeot 205 Trio (954cc!) - Classic first car. Lady owned shopping trolley. Was a great little car but indescribably slow and almost comical body roll in cornering! 2 ) Corrado 2.0 16v - Where the love affair started.. 3 ) Citroen Saxo VTR - Dumped the Corrado as it was a bit beyond on my budget at the time. VTR was a fun little motor! 4 ) 1992 Corrado G60 - Was a fantastic Corrado. Enthusiast owned for years, had everything done to it. Great car, but again, got very expensive very quickly! 5 ) MK4 Golf PD115 GT TDI - My only eBay bought car.. comfortable, economical, and surprisingly quick. Great stereos in these as standard too. 6 ) Corrado 2.0 16v - The flash red one I had for years! 7 ) Mercedes 200 TE - Freebie from my parents. Ran it alongside the Corrado for a year before trading it in for scrappage for my then girlfriend to get a deal on a new Micra. Regret that a bit now! I love big German cars, especially estate cars. Wasn't quick at all with a 2.0 4 cylinder engine and was rather uncommonly a manual gearbox. But I loved it. Angular early 90's Merc styling, memories of family holidays, and whenever you saw another you always got a wave like you do with Corrado's! 8 ) Corrado VR6 - Had it for four years now.. and my current car :) 9 ) Fiat 500 1.2 Pop - Sweet little motor, and the newest car I'd ever owned - only had 786 miles on the clock when I bought it! Got bored quickly though despite it being really good fun to drive, and being loaded with gadgets. Took so much abuse from people at work too for it being a bit of a girly car! 9 ) Skoda Octavia VRS MK2 - Awesome car. Really quick, really comfortable, looked excellent. But decided I didn't want to run two cars any more and went back to just the Corrado as my daily. 10 ) 1967 Daimler 2.5 V8 Saloon - not got it yet, but will be picking it up in the next month or two as an extended loan from my dad. A classic he bought when I was 11, and it took about a decade to restore. But he just never uses it (done about 500 miles in the last three years!) and wants me to put some miles on it and enjoy it. Which I will! By all accounts it should be cheaper to keep on the road than a Corrado too...
