    Private Plates

    I have a private plate on my A4, its K666 JMC... suitable for a Jenny, John, Joe, McCartney, McConnell, McCallion etc., etc... It was on the A4 when I bought it... Regtransfers offered me £400 for it so, I'd say it must be worth £800 to someone
  2. Sorry to hear that m8... thats the sort of thing I have nightmares about Sounds like it could be one of your mates playing a joke on ya... I wouldn't worry too much about that
  3. Nice clean looking car m8... lovely colour :wink: the silver always looks better in the flesh I think the wheels look fine from side on... Nice to have someone else spend the money on the engine work as well... as you say, it should run now for a good while without any problems
  4. I have a friend who has an upholstery company. He said that he would re-trim all my seats for free :lol: ... all I have to do is leave him out the seats & leather. I was toying with the idea of getting a hide of Connolly leather in a dark grey colour, almost charcoal (even got the samples sent to me). I too like the look of leather but, my last 16v Corrado had leather which I didn't like... it was very hard & shiney. Then I wasn't sure about getting either a full re-trim or half leather :? So as yet I'm no further on... what would you do?? Whats alcantra & where can I get it?
  5. Beautiful. I'd love to see it in the flesh... I'd say it could worth in the region of 18-19k to the right person Oh... just reminds me that mine has just turned 90,000 miles :(
  6. I like the 'all red' light clusters... & that first Corrado I do like the deep dished alloys as well but something like the 'Azev C's' are dished enough for the C
  7. They look good... its even nicer when you do something like that yourself 8) well done m8
  8. I agree, Looking at the pics, I was just thinking how much better the car would look with a black grille. What is that part you took off (in the last pic)
  9. Exactly Henny... Any Corrado from 1.8 to 2.9, will give you great driving pleasure
  10. Chuck, Are you not living in Belfast anymore then? cos, Chriss Knott couldn't quote me living in N Ireland
  11. 8) pics m8 and the nice thing about owning a corrado in CA is that you have no rust worries :mrgreen: ...

    Foglight removal

    IIRC, try sliding the indicators to one side... this should release them
  13. The tension mounts... Good luck with it Phat... hope everything works out well for ya. Looking forward to the updates
  14. I think I'll own one of those Nissan 350Z... one day :)
  15. When I bought mine (L30 VRG) it was £250 all in, transfer included in that :)
  16. Good tidy job there OSV, Looks like you've got the lowering just right as well.
  17. Very nice indeed Tempest... I think those are the best looking tail lights you can put on a Corrado 8)
  18. You should go looking for some Saxo's next Jim... :) just to remind yourself of the difference
  19. Can't remember the differences in the Schrick VSR's... one is a 368 or something giving better low down torque... Anyone know the differences & how does the VGI compare?
  20. Mine was the same... but when I was wiring in my laser/radar detector I had to remove the passenger side under-tray & another cover that has the feet vent in it (again passengers side) When I was looking about in there, I noticed that one of the little steel cables had come off. So I snapped it back on again & hey presto... heat for the feet :D The cable is easy to see but to find where the cable snaps onto, just turn the 'heater direction control' when the cover is off & you can then see the rods move.

    Road Tax...

    Mine is due now at the end of this month as well... still haven't decided wether or not to go with the 6 or 12 months. Makes economical sense to go with the 12months but... as you say Jim, its a lot of money :?
  22. I think the 50mm spoilers only came on Corrado's during 1994
  23. I bought the PVW every month for a couple of years but I have to say that I don't anymore. There's too many commercial features... i.e. the 'New Stuff' features seem to be all written by the suppliers themselves :roll: & so giving a biased opinion on the products. The golf magazine seems to give a more independant view on the products featured. It also gives more information on 'How To' do a lot of projects yourself... this is the sort of things I like to read about. Although they could feature more Corrado's...
  24. I'll deffinitely be getting that. If the Golf features more Corrado's then I'll take out a subscription on it. I think its a proper car magazine 8)
