Black 2.0l 16v plate something like M690 NNY spotted in Largs - outside Vicky's Bar on Sunday.

Looks sweet man. :)

Cool man - I got VR6s black cloth interior and keep meaning to put up pics - my old grey one was horrible. I'm still to get black carpets though. You got any further mods in the pipeline - bet you have more time to think about the car now the exams are over. Take it easy. G

Welcome the the club Tony!

I hear you Roddy - I was certain though that I read an article about the Campaigns saying that they were only available in Dusty Mauve which was a hitherto unheard of colour on Corrados - I'm sure it said something like that and it then gave me the impression that after the Campaign's there were models available in that colour. The mystery continues............... :lol:

Interior's looking sweet! How long did it take you to change the carpets and put the interior back in?

My vavler suffers from this all the time - I think it sounds SPORRRRRRRRRTY! :wink:

That is sweet man - the DBP looks amazing in the top photo - love when the sun brings it out like that! :wink:

I'm still suffering with a button only spoiler too - have been since August last year!

sorry but its impossible(from the factory that is) :wink: ......tis a campaign-only shade........tbh urs looks more like twilight violet anyway......easiest way to check is the paint code sticker found in the boot or on the driver-side inner-wing Roddy - I've seen Corrados for sale on Autotrader advertised as Dusty Mauve but they were not Campaign models. I was under the impression that the colour had not been seen on Corrados until the Campaign model but after the Campaign it was a colour choice. :? Dunno if anyone can clear this up? I have always thought that Dusty Mauve shared some similar characteristics to Dark Burgundy Pearl. Looks similar in the above pic - just more reddish than purple really.

Engine by any chance? :wink:

Looks much better without the spoiler on the back mate! Wheels are growing on me too! 8)

nightmare man - that stuff pure stresses me out - feel like an obssessive compulsive sometimes.

The Westwoods were the Standard Wheels for the 2.0l 8v - what about the campaigns wheels though -

My wheels had a similar problem - when checking under the bonnet for leaves make sure there's none stuck in the top right hand side - there is a plastic cowling held on with 3 or 4 metal clips - check under here. I wouldn't worry too much about the rusting on the arch - especially if it's on the face. You can just rub it down, fill it and rust prime it. Then get your paint code and a can from VW (which comes with lacquer) then spray it and lacquer it. I did this and the match was incredible - took a wee bit of blending with Tcut but looked fine until about 10cm away. The face of the arch is on a different light plane than the body of it so even if the match isnt spot on it still shouldnt stand out a mile.

BADBOY! :x

Like it Chris! Will definitely need to pick one up - especially for £20! :wink: Cheers guys

That would be great man - would just spray it myself - paint match from VW has been really good. 8)

A stainless exhaust would look good though! :wink: Also - IMHO 3slat grills look nicer - check out Dubster's gallery to compare the differences. Think they just look sharper with the newer style grill. Best of luck and welcome to the forum.

I agree whole-heartedly with Kvwloon - car looks great - fine mint example of an Hplate valver. You say the car is in need of some love - that isnt apparent from the photos - are they any specific rough areas of it?

I've been thinking about getting a brow spoiler for my C just to make the front end look a bit meaner. I have the standard 3slat grill and have removed the 16v badge - anyone know any good deals on them or any particular style that would suit my car? Cheers

I'd just like to announce that Sir Jimmy Saville is dead.

Cheers Dave - found that out last night when I heard something rattling about inside - it was indeed the plunger! :wink:

You can appreciate Michael Jackson the performer and his musical genius while at the same time realise he is completely bonkers!
