Rusty 16V

Recommended Posts

I've picked up a V cheap Corrado, and as the saying goes you get what you pay for. It needs a passenger side sill, as the one on the car is Swiss cheese, also needs a battery tray, as the original has rotted through.

I've never had a rusty Corrado before, and all the usual panel repair places don't list Corrado bits. So does anyone have any idea where I can get these bits of tin? On the other hand is anyone breaking a body shell, and can cut the bits I need out for me?

 

Cheers

Chris

I've had a quote for the sill, £40 inc VAT from the dealer. There isn't any stock of the battery tray in the UK, but they're being really good about it, and trying a special order from Germany for me.

It is not that special an order, so don't let them try to make you think that they are doing you a huge favour. Stuff is shipped from Germany on a regular basis and is usually referred to as being on 'back order'.

 

Seems to happen to me everytime I order stuff these days!

Yup me too. Does VAG stock ANYTHING for the corrado, i get tired of them having to order it form Germany? e.g. something as little as a bumper bracket.
