want something that looks nice and tidy and "proper" not necessarily oem. does anyone do a kit?? 1990 early bonnet shape.

if i blip the throttle the rpms seem to take a while to get back down to idle, any ideas or common/normal thing??

i have taken no pictures, will try and get some up over the weekend, took me long enough to find one as there are only around 12 corrados in nz, rust isnt a major over here (not saying we dont get it) but becouse we have no salt on the roads it doesnt get hold too bad unless you live right near the ocean, my car has always been inland and i live around 30 mins from the coast. my 1984 mk2 golf gti restoration is another story entirely!

well that was just a quote on ebay with international shipping when i clicked on shipping, i would imagigne shipping for the two will be up to around 20-30 quid.

beautiful car, simply stunning. ongoing perfection, congrats on what seems to have been a long relationship.

mine is identical, looks like a bit of a rust trap in the rear end having rusted on both sides but all repaired looks awesome, fresh paint looks good..

thanks, looking for a favour, is anyone prepared to buy a pair of scrapers for me and send them over all at my cost, i rang tps and they can get them but wont send them or take payment over the phone, i have family over there but there are no tps stores locally too them, i was hoping someone may live near one and maybe able to help me out, i can transfer cash via paypal no trouble so you can buy them, then send the shipping cost when you have them. i know its a bit of trouble but i can put a drink in it for you.. let me know if anyone is prepared to help out, i am peed off with my naff looking scrapers on what is a very tidy car in general. thanks Daemo

ive seen that one on ebay, and if it was a pair i would have bought as postage was quoted at 11.99, great thanks for that, bloody sun kills any rubber over here, i dont suppose you could give me the part numbers?? how much are they each?

great idea! thanks for that.

hope that is what they are called, rubbers that fit on the top of the doors and wipes the rain off the glass when they go down. need both sides, vw new zealand have none so have to go overseas, anyone know where i can get them from..thanks.

just tried to get a new drivers side headlight and was told they are no longer available (early 1990 car) so can anyone advise aftermarket etc..my reason for changing is that a brand new pass side light came with the car and makes the other one look like crap. also need a new hella drivers side indicator. any info would be helpful..difficult to source stuff in nz.

well that sounds good to me, could i pay you using paypal?? rally nz is on this year 21-24 june really looking forward to it as we only get it every other year now... used to follow rallying in the uk..

i am in Hamilton, just south of Auckland, that pug for sale was red, ive never seen a silver one over here but there are very few of them..its the wrong side of the world to own european cars really but its getting better, there was very very few dealers selling euro cars in the 80's 90's era.. to give you an idea of how small the "enthusiast" vw comunity is in nz visit here http://www.vask.org.nz most people are looking for alot of the same parts so prices are a little silly at times.. i will see what happens on the matrix, how much do you want for it?, i have just bought one for my mk2 gti from the uk and that did get a little damaged but only becouse it was packed by a half wit!!

thanks for the welcomes guys, 7 years on from moving to nz i still miss the cheap and easy to get car parts.. i know that corrado he is on vask but i dont know him personally, very nice looking rado tho. thanks.

actually, i think that pug is up for sale or was on "vask" vw forum, no there arnt many.. all us pommes over here know how good they were back in the day but very small folloing now and most fall apart the same as they did from around a year old...

gday guys, looking for rubber rubbing strip drivers side front wing, just the small peice, i know alot of people remove them but i like the origional look, mine has been lost for a number of years since the guard was painted, cant get one here in nz, also a heater control switch from a 1990 era car, if anyone can help out let me know, i can send small amounts of cash through the post to cover payment/postage. also where is the best place to get a heater matrix from, dont seem to have them listed on ebay when i was looking.. thanks.

shipping anything here is expensive, but if you want or need something i have no choice there are virtually no parts cars here, its a small price to pay for living in a place where there only 4 million people and roads are generally traffic free..

hi guys, living down here in nz origionaly from kettering, northamptonshire and a passionate life long watercooled vw fan, currently have a 1984 golf gti 8v, 1990 corrado 16v and a mk5 golf gti.... the corrado is one of around 12 nz new cars and there arnt many more than around 20 in nz so supply of parts is really limited, in fact all earlier vw cars golfs etc are really thin on the ground and they dont come up for sale often. my rado is a white 16v in as it came from the factory spec, ie not lowered etc or modified.. hopefully i might be able to get a few parts from you guys..
