yours is a pre facelift model,you can tell by your bonnet as its got a sunken bulge

Yours is a pre-facelift model mate since it was in production before 1993. Main differences (off the top of my head) are: bonnet, wider front wings, slightly different front and rear bumpers, slam panel with different grille mountings, slightly larger headlights, fog lights and indicators positioned further forward, a few interior changes such as the rotary heater controls, clocks with a digital odometer and electric window switches in the door pods.

 

I'm sure there are plently more small changes that I can't think of.

Also interior had re-vamped door handles, door opening handles, window and door mirror switches/postions, stalks and dash switches, door pods, and steering wheel. Think that's it.... cue somone else!

 

That may be when the variable intermittent wipe came in as well but that's a bit of a guess.

I've never seen a Corrado with variable intermittent wipe. Hands up who's got that...

I think we all have, but its well hidden.

 

1. Put the wipers on intermittent.

2. Turn the off.

3. After the required delay put them back on intermittent, the time interval will be the time they were off for! It resets to 6 seconds when the ignition is switched off.

 

Well clever set up, shame they didn't make it more obvious.

Or those caught in the changeover period.

Mines an early H with no variable wipe action :wink:

 

A fiver for the relay eh? Sounds a bit cheap to me that, Walesy.

 

Think I'll phone our freinds behind the desk. Relay Number 99 innit?

[timg60 0]

Its true you learn somthing new every day!!!!!!!!!!!

[bcstudent 0]

Blimey. It's all news to me!

[dinkus 10]

The 2 files linked from The Corrado Buying Guide and Checklist covers most of the major changes... ;)

[colinstubbs 0]

You learn something new everyday..............just in time too, I was beginning to worry today.

[Critical_Mass 10]

REALLY!? feck, it is well hidden! ill give it a go. Was it standard on all models? Didnt realise my G60 had heated washer jets until i came to take bonnet off and put new/second-hand one on. Theres plugs to go into the washers but werent there on replacement bonnet.

[colinstubbs 0]

the washers work with the rear window and the heated mirrors. You knew about them right?!!! :wink:

[Critical_Mass 10]

Not until january, 7 months after buying the car.
