Location: Grasmere, Cumbria. Price: 700.00 GBP Date added to Classifieds: 14th Dec 2011 Description: Hi. Selling my rusty Corrado to make way for a bike in a couple of months when the physio has worked her magic & I can get back on two wheels. It's not the best looker and the heater is blown meaning you get two heat settings: Cold, and cold as fook, and a main beam headlight is out. Everything else on the car is sorted. All electrics A1, sunroof, spoiler, later model leather interior in good nick, just spent £450 on Alpine speakers all around and can leave those in for an extra £100 if need be. New tires all round for the MOT 4 months ago. Lowered on coilovers, with unknown 17" multis on. Just been treated to an oil change, coolant change (Using the proper VW stuff, not the cheap crap) new discs & pads all round. Really well looked after mechanically, just a bit tatty outside. Done 128k miles, starts first time every time, doesn't burn excess oil unlike most VW's of this age i've owned before, coolant doesn't get suspiciously drained on long journeys either etc etc. Tax is up end of December but i'm still using it daily so I will be re-taxing it again for six months int new year. Cheers. Pete

UberMoose replied to trevyt's topic in Cars for Breaking
Same here, i'm looking t the bonnet & hoping there is a postal service which wouldn't charge double the amount of the item to post it to Cumbria. I'll look up the weight & dimensions online and price it up myself and get back to you if you can in fact be bothered to post something so big? -
That was my part-started, part run out of funds, as-yet-ongoing rat project :) I'm banging it up for winter (I get bored easily), and come springtime she's getting a similar colour lick as yours and either some AMG 16's or some KT1's. It's always ****sssin down 'ere bud, we're all alcoholics.

Sorry, I meant epic fail as in, awesome mistake :)

Epic fail

I stripped mine back a bit and taped them back on for a quick fix! But yes, soldering is the way forward, i'll be doing that once I have enough time to do it properly. You have to get the wires crossed over correctly for the dash speakers, get one wire wrong and the whole lot won't work! I figured that out the hard way, apologies for not being able to shed more light on the matter, all I can say is try hooking the wires up in different ways with the head unit on & some music playing & stop when you hear music. :) I'm such a cowboy...

Cheers for the headlight switch, Rod. In good nick & got here in good time.

As title. Looking to sell, or swap / p/x this beauty for either some 16" wheels & tires or audio equipment with either money your way or mine. Audio-wise, i'm ideally seeking Alpine PDX M6 type amp or alternatively a sub, amp & crossovers... But I know those exact items won't all be along at the same time so I may not be so picky The laptop is unboxed, but not stolen :smug: Cost me £800 8 months ago, it has a Mini DV to HDMI cable (42" HD Pornhub) & power cable, also has £400's worth of music Production software on it which goes by the name of Logic Pro 9 - http://www.musicradar.com/gear/all/computers-software/digital-audio-workstations-daws/logic-pro-9-218475/review - It has Traktor LE software installed for MP3 Decks (Mine are the Denon Dn-Mc6000, works spot-on). Very good, strong wireless system. Good HDMI picture on the big screen, handles Logic Pro 9 great with its 4gig of ram, has the built in webcam & I have a secondary HD webcam which I will throw in for noot. It has a couple of light marks on the lid from where it's been in my back pack, just from the velcro of one of the inner pockets, very barely noticeable (infinitesimal tbh) but i'd rather be straight about it. £500 o.n.o or £600 with Logic Pro 9 still on her. Free P & P. More pictures on demand if you'd like, just text or call 07917 468688 (I work long shifts so i'll call back if you miss me) or email me here at the CF. Ta for looking. Pedro xx

1: I d.j'ed at Gatecrasher & Kadoc after a years' practise on the decks 2: I de-flowered most of my friend's sisters, and have very few friends left as a result 3: I died in the back of an ambulance, and the first thing I said when revived was, "Can I have a double JD on the rocks please?!" :s

Stood in amazement staring at the back bumper for 5 minutes thinking dark, murderous thoughts after i'd discovered some c**t had clipped it whilst it was parked up & traded a load of red paint with me. Hopefully he/she is local, and I can beat the ****er half to death with my bare fists when I find them. Rant over

Nice one, very much appreciated Andy!
-
Yes it was, I showed my collegue the pic of Big Adam's car, "yeeess, that was most definitely it"
-
Ok, thanks buddy. I'll have a good look on here to see if there are any pics relating to the work and get crackin' with the knackin'. One amp for all speakers huh? Cheers FishWick. It's looking like amp work then
