  1. Same seller is also advertising late heater controls for £90 which look far from in good complete condition. However, if someone wants to pay the asking price, then good luck to the seller.
  2. I have everything for both doors/sides.
  3. You'll achieve best results if the springs and dampers are matched together. Infact, to achieve the best handling and comfort the springs/dampers/bushes/tyres/geometry all needs to work in harmony together. The main problem with putting shortened/uprated springs onto the regular OE dampers is that the damper will be working in a "travel" range it's not designed to work in. Also, the spring could dislodge as being shorter it will not be under any tension when the load is taken off the wheel(s).
  4. The original one out of mine was a OE VW SACHS one, stamped with VW part number and SACHS as the manufacturer. Never gave me any issues and it wasn't even bloody worn when I took it out! That was at 79k miles. The new one I've put in as I'd already bought the complete KIT when doing the chains was a SACHS one. No issues at all with it.
  5. Why is it that when someone is selling some front seats or the whole car they ALWAYS seem to forget, or intentionally avoid, taking a picture of the drivers seat lower and upper outer seat bolsters. This is the bit that shows the true wear and tear!! Yet they always seem to take excellent photos of the rear seats and the passenger front seat!!
  6. If the buyer for the fronts doesn't want the rears, then yeah sure you can have them for just the postage cost.
  7. I'll have this please. Sent you a PM with a couple of question.
  8. A fantastic original Corrado. Superb. The best thing to do with the underneath of the car is precisely nothing. If it ain't broke then don't try to fix it.
  9. Black late style Front Door Cards Drivers and Passenger side late style front door cards. Both a in excellent condition and have not been cut or water damaged in any way. Come complete with Speaker pods. The rears have had the corners cut off. They can be easily fixed and used. As they are cut I will throw this in for free with the sale.

  11. That's fair enough. The only advice/thing I will say is that you won't get anywhere near the originals as they are not simply a moulded plastic. What you may be able to do is have a one piece moulding manufactured. It will look okay if a manufacturer can do it for you and it may be reasonably cheap and cost effective.
  12. Neither am I Sean, I use my VR everyday, but the facts are the facts, so don't shoot the messenger. I have another new set which I'm keeping for myself. I'd be happy to let them be copied, but as I've said before, they're a 4 piece construction and not easy (if not impossible) to replicate
  13. Absolutely 100% spot on. If you're restoring a car to perfection then you will pay big money for obsolete parts. At the end of the day, a Corrado will NEVER win a concours competition if it doesn't have perfect OE roof trims.
  14. Well when I advertised and sold a set on the forum for £250 some thought I was being greedy......
  15. Unused Janspeed Branch Manifold Bought this genuine Janspeed 2 piece branch manifold many years ago for my MK2 Scirocco, but never fitted it. So it's completely unused. It's for an 8v engine. It may fit a 8v/G60 Corrado, may even fit a 16v one. It's a 2 piece manifold so I'm pretty sure it could be made to fit. So selling for 50 which I think is a bargain. Collection from Birmingham.

  16. The Schrick manifold has tuned inlet runners so it will give slightly better top end bhp than the VSR. However, the VSR allows the spark plugs to be changed while it is in situ. Also, as the VSR was made in limited numbers and is genuine VW, it will always be more sought after and valuable.
  17. Collection is from Bham. Sorry, can't post.
  18. Magnex Stainless Steel Back Box For sale Magnex stainless steel back box. Excellent used condition. Later style mounting brackets. 50 collected.

  19. I've never seen Kip's car in the flesh so I can't comment on it. However, I have seen lots of other "shiny" ones and they have been terrible cars.
  20. "Yeah never had a sherry before so all new lol! i like the no sunroof too. It still has your old Koni's on too lol! still feel as tight as a mouses ear ole " Them Koni STR.T's are excellent and completely overlooked by most on this forum. They are proof you don't need to spend mega bucks to get a sweet handling whilst comfortable car!
