It's gonna be interesting to see what happens to Corrado prices over the next few years as even the youngest cars are fast approaching 20 years old now, time flies! Hopefully depreciation will slow right down and nice condition cars start appreciating in value.

Many thanks for the info. jon_vr6 and the pics. Yes I remember now that the 2.8 casting is different to the 2.9. Phil_OCC could you please modify your advert as this is a 2.8 Golf inlet manifold and not a Corrado 2.9. I'll leave it thanks as it's not the right manifold for me.

Hi, no problem at all. I don't think there are any differences between an early or late 2.9 inlet manifold anyway?, but it would be good to know what year it was made and the engine it came off, thanks for getting the info. for me. Is the manifold free from any damage and in vgc? It looks really good. Do you know who did the polishing on the manifold? Cheers mate.

Hi mate, I'm interested in the manifold if it's still for sale? Could you tell me the date stamp on the underside please, month and year it was made? If you could please PM me a pic. of the ser. no. and date stamp in the casting that would be great. Is it from an early or late 2.9 engine? Cheers

Had a nice afternoon at this meet, good company and many thanks Fay for organising this one for us. Highlights include: Matty helping a nice old lady with her parking to save his car getting scraped up! and I've now self-diagnosed that I have a rare plastic trim and air guide fetish, well I don't get out much these days, hhmmm air guides! Also Jez's OCD style car cleaning multi-tool with various brush attachments was a treat, if slightly disturbing! I joke ofcourse.

I'm definately in for this one Fay, see you all there!

Wow! That's serious money, but then they are rare as hens teeth brand new. I can't believe the seller's just casually placed them down on paving, concrete and dirt like that for the pics. I would have carefully placed them on a piece of carpet or some cotton wool to protect them! haha. My precious!

Nice one, look forward to seeing you all there! Yep probably a good idea to call ahead and let the pub know we're coming, many thanks for organising this one Fay. Phil

I voted for most Sundays but I can't make the 14th or 15th Sep. due to the Goodwood revival meeting, most dates are fine with me. I agree that a Saturday might be better as the pub could be quieter and more parking spaces available. Ofcourse alot of it depends on the weather and a sunny Sunday afternoon could mean a packed pub and not enough parking!

Great thread, nice work, love the clean and mean look of the G60. Front licence plates aren't mandatory in Canada and BC, is that right? It's an option and not law?

I could be up for this, sounds like a nice place to meet

It can't be, no...is it an early rare G60 Jet 'Mariners Edition' steering wheel?, a much sought after German dealer option! Sorry if I've just spilled the beans mate!

Would that be the ultra rare Wolfsburg Storm edition set of splash guards?, rare as hens teeth, stash them away matey! :lol: Hope they're not on the car and being exposed to the elements! :nono: Actually it is weird that even new air guides could be considered rare now and lots of other plastic trim. Chris what's the story with your mint boat sized steering wheel!? Do tell...
