dubber31 0 Posted October 6, 2005 Just spent just over an hour reading all 47 pages, and what can I say apart from WOW!!! I have just joined the site as I used to have a Passat 1.8t which was recently stolen and i'm looking for a new car. Was debating between Mk3 or Corrado and this has made the decision a whole lot easier, LOL!!! Congratulations, the car looks truly awesome and the attention to detail mind-blowing!!! Hope everything get sorted out with the front end quickly so you enjoy it some more!!! Paul p.s. anyone selling a corrado!!! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

biggerbigben 0 Posted October 7, 2005 yep new beetle. Jay, sorry I didnt make it back out late night. Sarah was tired so decided not to make her drive me back into B! Hope the rest of the move goes well and catch up with you soon no doubt. At least you didn't miss out on the hang over! By god it got worse throughout the day on sunday!!! :-P Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted October 7, 2005 dubber31. Cheers mate, I am flattered you read through all 47 pages!! I think the decision to get a Corrado is a good one, MK3's are alright, but nothing on the Corrado. :) Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 7, 2005 Excellent, good to hear the car is booked in already, you are one dedicated enthusiast! Agreed on MK3s, although they share a lot of stuff with plus axle Corrados, they're just so chalk and cheese. The MK3 GTI I have at the moment (a loaner whilst AmD fettle my C) is totally bewildered by bends the C doesn't even register. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

24V Renshaw 0 Posted October 8, 2005 Kev - I have to admit, I have driven very very few cars which cope with the fast twisty stuff as well as a sorted C. Any of the hire cars etc.. I have had are scary when you go into bends you are used to taking in the C. No idea what courtesy car I am getting when mine goes in on Tuesday, but I know I will be gagging to get mine back after a couple of days in it. :) Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think it was an excuse to do a few more things before any shoots!! lol. Looking good, as always, looking forward to 'finished' pics. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted October 24, 2005 Cheers ToffeeRado. Sorry its such a long thread! :) Shaggsy - I wish it was an excuse mate. I am pleased it will get rid of the last 4 years of stone chips from the front wings, but otherwise I could have done without it! :) I am also going to have a OE 90mm front spoiler in place of the MK2 one, so it will change the look of the front end a bit. For now thats it, but I have some small plans for the front end in the future... Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted November 3, 2005 Just got this photo from my mate who works at the bodyshop where my car is being repaired and its all done!!!
