A20 LEE 0 Posted June 12, 2005 ' Are you gonna be going to the GTi thingy at Harewood ? We are gonna take the mk2 golf Gti there to see if we can sell it . BTW... IMHO the best bit of the feature is the sentence that contains my name and ' owes a few beers ' pmsl... :lol: My car only had a drivers seat in it for the MOT as i remember. Yeah, i'll be at harewood. 30mile round trip!! used to at least 300. Beers, you said biscuits :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A20 LEE 0 Posted June 12, 2005 Got any beige door cards laying around Lee? :lol: Shouldn't cost much to get your inserts trimmed. I know that PhatVR6 is having some trimming done and his interior is probably the same colour as yours. Maybe be able to buy the spare leather off him to trim your cards :?: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A20 LEE 0 Posted June 12, 2005 sweet article dude. havent seen a pic of the rear seats though...it mentions at the end you've had a corrado logo embossed .....any pics mate? Here you go. Would have like to have done the same on the front seats but they were only trimmed the day before its debut at Tatton. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not this time, i'll probably do one of the more general mags next year Max/Redline/FC, so we'll see. Think there a few shots of some max babes earlier in the thread posing in/on the car. save you searching http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/download.php?id=7578 http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/download.php?id=7579 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A20 LEE 0 Posted June 14, 2005 why mk2 centre bases and not corrado recaro ones if you dont mind me asking ? Mk2 ones are better, thats it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubster82 0 Posted June 14, 2005 :lol: right, but in what way... its corrado recaro base runners right? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A20 LEE 0 Posted June 14, 2005 :lol: right, but in what way... its corrado recaro base runners right? the subframes are corrado recaro, the mk2 recaro centres are much thicker (deeper) than corrado or std recaro centre so MJ made them fit. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

(i copied you!) is it just the picture or does the back of the rear bench leather look a bit ruffled? is you guage panel a rhd one or a moded lhd? It is a little bit near the armrest as the shelf presses down on it there. I actually trimmed the backs of the rear seats myself as MJ was busy.

potatonet 0 Posted July 14, 2005 haha wow I just got my PVW here in the states, your car is amazing, I mean the paint just has this satin finish to it that is unreal. I am 2 years into my project, also in college so I got to have money for both, hope one day that it will turn out as nice as yours! Jonathan Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted July 14, 2005 LOL! satin??? it's just the way it's been photographed (or rather the lighting in the studio, it's actually a VERY high gloss. Any daylight pictures Lee? every time I see the car it looks almost black?? mines meant to be the same colour but it's nowhere near the same shade?? where's all the metallic red flake gone?

dubster82 0 Posted July 14, 2005 i've always said the best pics of lees car, was in bright sunshine, in front of a gate, and a faactory i tihnk it was. now they are stunning pics!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil VR6 0 Posted July 14, 2005 It does look a bit satin in the pics! I think it's a great car and the best thing about is that it's not hermatically sealed in a garage and only taken to shows. It's driven daily as it should be. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
