StuartFZR400 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Here it is now, in winter/spring, before i put the BBS on. Oh bring on the summer please!!! Yes, this is my first Corrado [Nov 04], but not my first VW. It all began with dads Mk1 Golf Gti, wow! My Golf Mk2 1.6 was my first car, and what a good-un, reliable runner. You'll just see the Scirocco in the pic, and no its not a Delorian as all my mates keep asking... how sad. The Corrado feels quicker than the rocco, but only because its got a much stiffer ride on the lowered springs & low profile tyres; that rocco goes just fine. But i dont need to tell you lot that.

StuartFZR400 0 Posted February 2, 2005 Ahh, the Purple Head... i mean front. Anyone got any idea what kind of money the 17x7 Teamdynamics-Vulcan would fetch? [3 good cond, 1 with scuffs to spokes (by previous fella)]. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bally 0 Posted November 18, 2005 any plans for it?? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartFZR400 0 Posted November 18, 2005 Not sure really; although got a rattle somewhere - yet to find the suspected heatsheild. Firstly it'd be nice to improve and replace old parts, either interior or engine bay. Next would be to fiddle with the wheels and suspension again; goto a 16" wheel and 20 to 30 drop. However I've got an idea that i should get a VR6 and spend all my money on that. Whaddya think of the BBS? Not as nice as yours but a tad retro. What are your wheels (if bbs - what type) Bally? VAG zorst looks fine... . Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bcstudent 0 Posted February 27, 2006 That first pic could really do with thumbnailing! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartFZR400 0 Posted February 27, 2006 Not sure how to bc Here is the thumb: click for larger version (cracked it finally - cheers Phil) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted February 27, 2006 Hmmm, maybe resize to 1024 x 768 and upload to the forum. * EDIT * I find the 'Add an Attachment' option works well. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartFZR400 0 Posted February 27, 2006 lol Dear Mr Gallery Inspector Yeh, but I was trying to just use the 'uploadnet' site for pics and not overload this site. I think the above option works in a rough way. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartFZR400 0 Posted April 28, 2006 It was such a lovely night for a walk last nigh; the missus frowned when I brought the camera but soon realised it was for the car... Then these guys came back from the dog walk and nodded @ the C, then drove off... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PhillT 0 Posted April 28, 2006 looks nice what colour is it? looks like the midnight blue I've got on my G60 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartFZR400 0 Posted April 28, 2006 Purple Phil - not sure how common it is, but I've seen one other in this colour. Having said that I've not seen many C's near me; one blue, one *drownish dirty looking VR and a nice looking slammed black 16v. *brownish - oops, dyslexia strikes again Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhillT 0 Posted April 28, 2006 quiet new to C's :oops: ... mine's midnight blue but changes colour in different lights, looks more purple in the sunlight to me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StuartFZR400 0 Posted April 28, 2006 I've taken a look at your car Phil, looks nice other than the missing engine and tyre pressures. lol Can't say Ive seen this colour before, as I know of a very light blue. As dark as your blue is, I wouldn't say its as purple as mine; mine has "purple" on the V5. Be nice to see a gallery of all colour choices though huh...

PhillT 0 Posted April 28, 2006 :lol: tyre pressures are the least of my worries (they're bald on the front inner edges too) yeah would be good to see a gallery of all the colour choices hopefully mine will get to the standard of peoples car's here (apart from extreme nutters like A20 LEE etc..)
