  1. Ok less the sarcasm, Dont now a great deal about cars, im into fixing bikes, so if i do find out its been clocked, is it worth me doing the engine conversion??????? (2ltr bottom end, ported and polished head) i dont want to sell the car but dont want to spend good money on it, to not even be able to sell it when im finished with it or have trouble selling due to this reason + it will also stand me £500 - £900 more than it does, looking for help on this 1 not sarcasm thanks,
  2. Not nice, its not right that people abuse your genuine trust, get him banned from e-bay and let everyone know his details, i was just looking at exactly the same thing on e-bay yesterday, im glad ive looked on the forum today, i will stay well clear, thanks for the warning
  3. HELP!! HELP !! HELP!! Will some of you Please Please Please tell me some of the names of were you are insured im 25 from newcastle, no points been driving for 4 years, 1 yrs ncd i was quoted nearly 2k for mine, its only an 1800 16V on a G plate i nearly crapped myself, let me know so i can spend the money on the car, not those thieving tw*ts
  4. I like that saying " Corrado ownership is like a drug : You Always Find Yourself Looking For Another Fix!!!!! This couldnt be more true, and if this is an old saying dont rub it in by sending lots of messages telling me so, im quite new to the Corrado seen :D :D
  5. :mad: Well reading this has opened my eyes again to the Corrado's, ive learned alot since i started coming on here, the lying tw*t who sold me mine said the leather was standard in it, (it wasnt) he told me it only had 5 previous owners, he lied again ive just checked and its had 11, my fault for not checking the V5 properly ( i wont make that mistake again ) i think it seems like its been looked after it says its only got 116,000 on the clock but after the other lies im thinking of getting that checked to, its got full VW history with it but my mate who works at a car garage said the history doesnt mean alot if the car has been owned by a lot of people with good car knowledge, (in other words people who know how to clock cars the right way) the lad who had it before me got banned on his R6 and left it in his garage for nearly 3 years, he hardly used it because he worked away as well, So Come on lads i want a true opinion, what should i do with it, i was going to fit a 2 ltr bottom end and get the head polished and ported, but after finding this out should i sell it?????????? it looks mint, drives well and i love it, but am i throwing my money away by doing this to it?????????????????? :mad: :mad: :mad:
  6. Ive had similar probs with my corrado it seemed like every corner in the wet the backend was moving, it was handling like crap, my mk2 gti16v was 10 times better, ive managed to get a full new set of suspension, and im going to replace the tyres, but the back 2 are Yoko's so i dont understand it, i thought these were good, can anyone recommend a good set of tyres that arnt rediculously priced, and recommend i change anything else whilst getting the suspension fitted and tyres changes, it would be much appreciated so i dont have to start changing things after ive got the suspension and tyres fitted.

    Bad Boy kit on a Corrado, it should be made law that you cant distort perfection like that, theres a lad near me has one on his car and it looks crap, everyone on the estate round us agrees **mod edit - de-capped** stevemac
  9. Can anyone tell me where you can but these for my corrado, some little twit decided that they would try and break in to my car buy trying the door, then when realising its got an alarm they tried to gain entry through the grill and bonnet, by smashing the grill and eyebrow spoiler, I think it looks bear without it now, can anyone help, if they have 1 second had I will buy asap *mod edit - Please don't SHOUT your posts - De-cap'd for you - Henny*
  10. that Corrado is the best 1 ive seen in a long time, nice one, what i would give to get a hold of 1 that has been someones baby, like yours has, the 1 ive got has been neglected, (left in a garage for 3 years and wasnt moved, lad got banned and just forgot about it)

    Wet Carpet!

    :( I bought my corrado in the summer and it was fine until we started getting the crap weather, then the drivers footwell started filling with water everytime it rained, i pulled the carpet back and took all the plastic parts off in the drivers footwell to have a good look, when i did i poured water all over the car and it started running in like a tap, has anyone got any suggestions as to why this is happening???? i think that the car has been painted so i dont know if the screen has been taken out to do this, i know they are bonded so this would be the cause of it if it wasnt replaced properly, if anyone has any other ideas of what the problem could be please let me know, and if you have any suggestion as to how i could stop it until i get it ready to be painted again and get the windscreen put in properly it would be greatly appreciated CORRADO 1.8 16V ** Mod Edit - Please don't SHOUT your posts, it makes it difficult to read. - Henny **
