  1. have a look here folks, lets get a scottish corrado meet set up for feb/march???? seems to be plenty of us on here? http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewto ... 20&t=63731
  2. cheers mate, erm there is talks of a ring trip next summer, but hoping to go to australia for 3 weeks, and id rather go next again year cos me and my mate should have the derby track car we have finished and turbo'd by then. but back to aviemore soon, mates parents have the house sitting there empty between october and april, might aswell make the most of it! only 2 hours up the road :D
  3. looking good andy, photography in those last pics is almost perfect eh? :lol:
  4. just to pee you off more andy 19" SSW's fitted with 5x100 to 5x112 adaptors, 15mm front, 20mm back. Was getting worryed,I thought an ofset of 20 on the front would be ok, christ only just! Had to cut 3 threads from front wheel bolts and everything went smoothly. HOWEVER i have been collecting a few bits for the raddo, will get pics up soon.
  5. ditto, would love to see your car with the porka wheels on! 8) Nice work btw
  6. followed this on e38, great colour,alloys and stance. Any plans except for headlamp surrounds?
  7. Can i ask how exactly you did respray? Rattle cans? compressor and spray gun? What prep exactly? Top work!
  8. Yeah im hoping ill be doing that start of march/april i hope, its just that ill have to spray both sides, but buy the time winter has passed they will def need done anyway. cheers
  9. Excellent work mate!! Loving the engine bay work 8)
  10. Wee update, (sorry it aint a raddo- few wee things left to do then i make a start on her) This was up for sale but due to being rather busy with extra work I can afford to keep it now and still get onto that property ladder. Took her up north with my mates for the weekend,(see a trend here?) she ran ok considering she's been off the road for 3-4months, worrying thing is my remap aint working???? :? Service next. She could go lower at back and in general but shes rubbing alot at front so be coming up a few threads also thanks to council putting speedbumps on my road and my driveway is real bad! :lol:
  11. Mike can you please let me know which 6 numbers you think are going to win the lottery this week :) :lol: said to my old man i wonder how many folk did put a bet on Raikkonen, what were the odds? Been a good F1 season as in good racing,3 way fight to the end but all these sodding rules,fines,spying have ruined it really. Now when will Bernie see the light and get WRC Rallying back on where it belongs!!!!
  12. oh and use satin aswell,smoother better finish!
  13. it kinda sounds like you've almost made your mind up mate? If its a daily driver and you dont have or dont want to spend 2k id def go for it, but doesnt have to be matt black,any colour can be matt? If you dont like it,respray it again
  14. Hi mate, spoke to you at E38 and was ment to catch up after you pitched up your tent but never got round to it, sorry! All the best with it mate, as I said james really looked after it and spent a small fortune, plus its got the added factor of going to the ring and back twice and never braking down and doing some good strong laps! (unlike my Vr :( ) Good luck with it all! 8)
  15. b@stard! Saw the highlights last night, F1 has just got exciting! (finally) Cant believe im looking forward to next race :lol:
  16. Yeah gutted i missed this! What actually happened? Any links to the you tube video? My mate was out there in Hungary and going on and on about it and i dont have a bloody clue! :( Was working!
  17. If you read from the start you'll see :wink: Yes....I am aware of that but didnt know what kit Karl actually got? Hence the question. Yeah Karl think from this there will be alot of dyed leathers comign together in next few months or over the winter! :lol: , hopefully not red for your sake! My car is black too so dont worry,liking the look of tan tho! 8) Thanks for the info! :) :D
  18. Also while every1 is think about dying thier leather interior(standard factory leather) what parts are vinyl? Backs and sides? TIA
  19. WOW! I always wanted red leather in my car after seeing the M3 beemers! Looks wicked! Personal question here but how much has this dying set you back Karl? cheers
  20. WOW! jesus thats bad news feel for you mate, im seeing more and more raddos with rot on sills and around petrol cap......and now you have given me another area to check! :shock: Anything can be fixed for the right amount of money, depends if you can track down an extremly good welder or fabricator to carry out the work, i doubt there would be a repair panel imo? Just out of interest what years your car and whats the milage? Any evidence of a crash damage on that side at all?
  21. Yeah if any1 is up for a wee meet.....1st tuesdays on the month, 7/7:30pm,Flotterstone Inn, 5 mins from Edinburgh City Bypass, Andy (just_say_meth comes) down from dunblane and has done for the last 6 months...so no excuses edinburgh folk! for more info: http://www.scottishvag.net/phpBB3/viewt ... 58&t=18371 8)
  22. Was gona say get the other pics up of Ure VAG fleet :lol: Cars very nice, cant beat silver, ever thought about a late spec front bumper to get those fogs/indicators flush with the bumper? I reckon it'd improve the front end so much! aswell as the crystal fogs n indicators, ive never been a fan with angel eyes,etc but your car suits them! 8)
  23. so true! you can just picture them on the X5'x and Range Rovers cant you? :lol:
  24. Owner of this car off here? me and andy (justsaymeth) had a look round it,20vT installed and looked and sounded like he did it himself, good work! ReekieVr I still see you about, if you get flashed by a white Midlothian Private Hire Sharan taxi or white minibus's/coaches with "Edinburgh Group Travel" on them........its me! :lol: Same goes with any1 around Scotland with a raddo! :lol: 8)
