  1. I've looked into it before. Think the cheapest quote I got was £30. You're then trusting a courier company to not **** it up and bend it in some way! Do me a favour and check the paint code for me and I'll have a think. If it's the wrong paint code,it doesn't really matter anyway.
  2. Bit too far for me mate, 450 mile round trip!
  3. How much would you want for the bonnet? Whereabouts in the country are you?
  4. Possibly drivers door and bonnet if there's no rust. Dependant on price. Cheers
  5. Reflector received, excellently packed and in 1 piece! Cheers mate
  6. Which Green is it, Classic or Dragon? Also are there any of the panels left?
  7. I'll figure it out, somehow! I'll take the passenger side reflector (the duller one). PM me your PayPal details and I'll get £15 over to you mate. Cheers.
  8. The passenger side is the duller one, I'll need to have a look at mine and see if yours is any brighter. The reason I need one is because mine is quite dull and I have a feeling it'll fail it's MOT because of no beam pattern. How do you remove the reflectors? Can it be done through the front of the headlight after removing the glass. Or do you need to remove the whole headlight and take it out from the back? Reason I ask is because I can't get the full headlight out because the middle, low down screw is completely rusted through. Cheers

  10. Just the passenger side reflector assembly.
  11. Hi mate, interested in the passenger side head light. Have you got pics, need to see if it's better than the one already on the car. Cheers
  12. Hi mate, interested in the passenger side head light. Have you got pics, need to see if it's better than the one already on the car. Cheers Headlight reflector assemblies - left and right available. Good condition - ideal for Joey modding. £15 each.
  13. Yep, I'm interested too mate
  14. I'm with HIC on a classic limited mileage policy, paying approx £250 for the year. Towards the end of the year I'm planning on buying a BMW 330ci, which I'll be applying my no claims discount to. After talking to HIC it turns out that on a classic car policy, how many years no claims you have doesn't really make much difference to the cost of the policy. So any company offering a classic car policy for a Corrado should be relatively cheap.
  15. Whereabouts are you? I used a company in Bradford to do my Borbet C winter wheels. They only charge £1 per inch, so it only cost me £16 per wheel. This was to blast off the old black paint and then powdercoat them.
  16. This post has scared me a little bit! Seen as Kev does appear to know his stuff, I'm considering going back to my original plan of going for an 8L version of an Audi S3. Or is there the possibility of gigantic repair bills with this too? Kev, any input greatly appreciated.
  17. I've gotta agree on the 6 cylinder BMW, everybody I've spoken to, including a couple of mechanics have said the engines pretty bomb proof. One of the main reasons I'm going for one.
  18. Winter tyres are a lot cheaper in 16" for the Corrado, plus it's a lot cheaper to repair if I do end up sliding in to a kerb! I know it might be a bit blasphemous to some on here, using a Corrado as the winter car, but the way I see it is that it keeps it on the road, and I can't bring myself to break it. It's a little tatty, so not really worth that much if I try to sell it. I've looked at the insurance situation and it looks like it's going to cost me approx £200 for the Corrado on a classic policy with limited mileage of approx 3k. BMW should be about £500/£600 with the 5 years NCB applied.
  19. I'm going for an E46 330Ci in November, when my 5 year NCB kicks in, it was a toss up between that and an S3. I'm still keeping my Corrado though, but as it's only an 8v daily it will be mainly used as the winter car. Rear wheel drive and low profile tyres are absolutely useless in the snow and ice etc. I've been looking at the Club Sport editions too, but I can't get past that ugly rear spoiler, really let's it down. It looks like something your buy from Halfords.
  20. To be honest you're not really going to gain any bass with 13cm components, they only produce mids & highs. You will need some type of sub or at worst some 6x9's for any discernible bass. I've got some JBL components up front, that we're cheap as chips from eBay running off a 4x50w Kenwood head unit, the head unit does have a decent onboard amp though. In the back is an active 8" Alpine sub that was around £100 from eBay, even though it's only 8" it gives a really decent amount of bass
  21. So sad, bell ends are bell ends
  22. I'll have the rear Passat handles and mechanism, as long as that is everything I need to delock the car?
  23. Ooh, I need to see this car. I'm in Bradford with a Classic Green Corrado with cream Borbet C's!
