well done m8, welcome to the corrado ownership. cant wait to see those pics.

welcome....burgundy pearl...yum yum....good choice.....any pics?

Well after a couple of days of washing/claying/polishing/waxing and spending time on little things like door handles and touch up etc....here we are!

 

Still a little way to go, and sorry the pictures aren't too good...but you get the idea!

 

The colour's officially called Black Violet Pearl Metallic apparently, but I always thought it was called Dark Burgubdy Pearl. Got to admit I like the sound of Black Violet Pear! Looks fantastic in the sun, especially after a coat of Zymol!

 

 

 

 

 

Only real changes I've made apart from a major wash clay wax etc is turning these....

 

 

Into what you see up there....they'll do until I can get some replacements!!

 

 

Quite like the wheels too, not my choice but they will do for the moment (Lenso RS5's)

Haha, trade size, does the job!

 

Looking through the old MOT's...

 

Most recent one says car colour: Purple (which the V5 says)

 

one before says black, and the one before says brown!

 

Wheels are 17" Lenso RS5's!! :)

[Guest]

well just grab the colour code and compare it on the chart mate, then you'll know for sure :)

Cheers guys!

 

Think I'm gonna get the charger rebuilt for peace of mind...any reccomendations (Have heard very good things about G-Werks!)

 

Got a couple of quick questions though...

 

1) My sunroof only tilts and doesnt't slide....is that a real pain in the arse to fix?

 

2) With the car unlocked, if you open any doors (also works if you press the little button in the door jam for the interior light etc) You can hear what sounds like the central locking pump make a noise...

 

a) Is it supposed to do that

b) If yes, what is it oding

c) If not, why is is doing it??

 

Cheers! :)
