  1. Good effort old boy :mrgreen:
  2. Blue 16v M*** CLY followed me out of Hereford market today at 3.30pm, I was in work van unfortunately.
  3. It sounds as though you got a much better deal in the end, it's all too easy to let the heart rule the head! Some dimwit will end up paying over the odds for that storm and then end up paying more to get it how it should be. Only if you can pick one up for normal VR money will you be onto a winner. Yes storm is group 19 insurance for some reason, but my renewal has just come through at £322 fully comp, guess I could be lucky there but it's a small price I'm prepared to pay.

  5. The very early VR6s came with the 5 spoke Monte Carlo alloys as found on early Mk3 Golf 16v. I think the later Corrado 2.0 16v and 8v came with a style called Westwood, which are also 5 spoke.

    what oil?

    Go for VW's own synta silver if you can't be arsed to search :wink:
  7. Bit unfair having a '91 Mitsubishi against an '83 BM and Jag, but still good entertaining stuff though, they always have a right laugh blowing up old bangers :) edit - take a look at the trader, how the feck did Clarkson get hold of the last UK registered car for a grand??
  8. Why not? You can pick up an early 16v for
  9. Red G60 J*** MBJ with a rusty passenger door :( seen parked in Brierly near Leominster at 4ish today
  10. Just do the dividing line and see if that makes any difference, I don't think you'll need to paint anymore around the reflector, unless you just want to give it another coating :wink:
  11. Did this simple but effective mod myself tonight and am well chuffed, it looks good against the dark paintwork. I used a very thin brush with a small bottle of black industrial metal marker and it worked a treat, looks better with the dividing line painted too 8)
  12. Burgandy Corrado going past the main entrance of the 3 Counties Showground in Malvern at 11ish this morning
  13. Nah it's not Campaign, it's got a cloth interior, reg no. is K228 RVV, I've got this pic in colour in an old pack of Top Trumps cards! :-P
  14. Silver M reg parked outside the Green Dragon hotel in Broad St, Hereford last night at 10 pm
  15. Try here... http://www.beetles-uk.com/ :wink:
  16. http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=5637 :wink:
  17. Dark coloured J reg, yesterday at 12.30pm on the A46 going over the River Trent at Newark.
  18. Yeah I think the one on ebay was in Ross on Wye, not far from here, I used to see it around from time to time. The Corrado was sold in the UK from May 1989 onwards I believe so there were a few registered on an F before G plates came out in August. :wink:
  19. Yes they are exactly the same and came as standard on the Mk3 Golf VR6 Highline. :wink:
  20. This is such a tragic post, my sympathies to all those concerned. Have fun out there by all means, but stay safe. :(
  21. Thanks for the advice guys, cheers, 8) Dave
  22. It has a couple of cat scratches on bonnet and roof (feckin horrible creatures) and also odd stone chips along the lower half of the bodywork that I've used touch up paint on, this shows up quite a bit depending on the light (in my critical eyes). I'm not after a show car, just wondered if the G3 would help, followed by a thoroughly good polish, to make it look better? But is there a chance it'll remove the laquer?
  23. Found a tub of the stuff hidden away in my garage, can't remember when I bought it so should I consider using it to try and spruce up the paintwork or is this not recommended and should I just bin it?
  24. Don't really know much about the S2 and they do seem to be fairly rare, but as they are heavier than a Corrado VR6, performance wise, would they be on a par with a standard VR?
