Turbo banana

I hope above hope that this is not some sick joke, but seems real.

hopefully if there is anybody in the area they can attend.

So took my mate out for a play in the Raddo last night as he has never driven anything you could call quick before. He runs a mk3 Golf GTi but it hardly sets fire to the road.

Anyway after a long few thrashes we turned back for home, then it developed a misfire and slowly died :scratch:

After quick check for sparks and finding all present and correct, Fuel check showed the needle still above red but after a quick crawl beneath and tap of the tank the echo from within told otherwise :bonk:

Anyone else had this before?

Yup the snow can sure be fun to drive in, although at 5am on the way home before the plough has been it is sometimes a tad daunting, the Corrado is to be a summer toy and not going to have to endure the winter though. The good old bus of a Passat is the daily hack for such purposes that and the old 82 Caddy:)

So my G60 has decided to start weeping it coolant :(

I am finding there is some issues froim a couple suppliers as to which rad to fit as i am here in UK and my car is back in Finland.

Is there anything odd about these rads????

/i have a non air con model, one supplier told me its the same as Golf 16v another said its a one of specialist one for that car, another has a choice of two and without a reg number he cant help?!?!? how hard can it be.

I am hoping to pick on e up here before i fly back due to price differences, any help is much appreciated.

Car is a LHD '90 G60, originally from Germany.

As the title says really, I am originally form Edinburgh but a few years back i moved out to FInland.

Anyhoo, last weeek i found myself a very sick Corrado G60 and picked it up for 1500e and with the addition of an operational Engine Temp sensor i had a car that passed its MOT first time despite having sat for a year =) (finish price on this car would be between 2500-3000e as it stands now. A bargain i do believe was had

The car come with smaller pulley wheel on the charger and a new chip in the ECU. Stainless zorst from cat back 2.5" Coilovers of a brand i do not know but hopefully somebody here can help with that' 16" borbet alloys with brand new tyres, only Falken but still new is new.

Alas my radiator has sprung a leak and i need to track down a new one. and some new leads. after that a good service and its ready to fly again =)
