Hi Stu, pm'd Cheers Jeff

Hi Stu, Is the interior still available and if so, is a plain black or does it have a fleck or whatever? Cheers Jeff

Hi Andy, Can I take them please? I'll pm my details Cheers Jeff hi Andy

Hi, I'll take them off you please. Will pm you my details Cheers Jeff

Now installed:grin: and all working fine. Thanks for everone's help Cheers Jeff

Hi to a white H reg valver in Sanisbury's car park Stanmore late this pm. Looked very nice! We parked quite close in M reg Blue 16v and 1971 white Dolomite!! Cheers Jeff

You can indeed! One ordered. Cheers Jeff

Cool, thanks. Careful will be my middle name!! Cheers Jeff ---------- Post added at 04:41 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 PM ---------- Just a thought, is the cage likely to be universal? Cheers Jeff

Thanks. Any advice on "just pulling the unit out"? Hasan, I'm lucky I don't have many rattles from there - plenty from the back of the car though :roll: Jeff

Hi all, Have a Sony HU in my recently acquired C. It does the job but the display is just toooo irritating, so have got a Kenwood - with Bluetooth hands free to replace it. Have fitted HU's before so not a complete novice but do I have to bear in mind any points re the Toad alarm fitted and am also wondering about getting the existing HU out. Any suggestions/ advice gratefully received. Cheers Jeff

That'd be great,thanks unless I could collect - I'm only in Harrow. I'll pm you my address. If you could let me know how much please. Thanks very much Jeff

Mission accomplished and the Rado is now helping to clutter up the drive. There must be a limit to our neighbours patience - but one of the Dolomites will hopefully be off to a garage tomorrow. Well chuffed with the new acquisition, I must say! Front wheels need balancing I think and ISV needs sorting but otherwise :dance: Not only that but the other half seems quite impressed too. (Just need to explain to her why it's so much better than a Golf!!) Cheers Jeff

Hi, One wanted here too please, if anyone has a known good one! Cheers Jeff

Sounds reasonable also wonder wheter the insuracne would be valid for what would probably be classed as business use Cheers Jeff

[quote=;770031]Hmm really?? How about I have that one and you have my 'project' valver? Neil, I've given your very kind offer some considerationbut will probably stick with my purchase thanks, as I'm off this eve on the overnight coach to collect my new Rado. Yay!! Then for a 7 hour A1/M1 blast home on Sat - that'll test it's comfort levels Cheers Jeff.

Well, I am teetering on the precipice of purchase - a sub £1500 valver but looks to be in good nick and well maintained. Mind you I'll have to go Edinburgh to pick it up but hey, what's life without a few adventures? Just need to consider the other half's reaction. :blackeye: I expect. Cheers Jeff

Cheers Cazza, Interesting, thanks. Am I right in thinking the G60 is basically a 1.8 with supercharger? If so, at what point does the supercharger cut in? Thanks Jeff

Might be worth trying RH Specialist. I've got all my Triumphs with them. Work out at £90 per car! Ok I'm old enough to pass almost any age criterion but my GF has also found them cheapest for her work car! Cheers Jeff

No clear winner then it seems :scratch: re VR6, don't particularly want too many maintenance probs - got enough of those with the Triumphs (to be fair though they're not too bad) and not likely to be clocking up huge mileage so may not be a deal breaker. Any real mileage will be long motorway trips so mpg may not be too much of an issue either! Cheers Jeff

Hi Hasan, Wealdstone way. I know Northwood (Hills) quite well, I ran a badminton club at the Potter Street school for years. Good to have someone in the vicinity. Cheers Jeff ---------- Post added at 10:24 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:22 AM ---------- Yep, I think that's my plan! Cheers Jeff

Been lurking for a while and thought it was time I stepped out from the shadows! Am hoping to pick up a Corrado to share daily duties with my 1980 Dolomite 1850. Used to have a 1983 Scirocco back in the day and absolutely loved it. Always wanted a Corrado though but could never afford one. Times change however and now I figure I can :cheers: Ideally I think I'd prefer a valver largely on economy grounds (although if I'm dead honest a VR would be tempting) as if I want a sports car blast, I've got one of these [ATTACH=CONFIG]51135[/ATTACH] Really impressed with the help and knowledge on the forum so far and hope to be able to share my Rado experiences with you all Cheers Jeff

I'm a Storm man meself :bonk: Cheer Jeff

I wouldn't take it personally against Corrados! Driving standards nowadays are deplorable. The Clio driver is soon likely to contribute to the rise in insurance premiums - especially for the young sadly. She should try driving my daily drives - 1973 Triumph GT6/ 1980 Dolomite - their brakes would soon slow her down:thumbleft: Both have more than enough poke to keep up with modern cars so I ain't no roadblock but I guess they're a little ancient to attract boy (or girl) racers. The closer someone drives behind me, the more space I leave in front. Will find out soon enough if attitudes to Rados are different though when - hopefully, I pick one up soon Cheers Jeff
