Rados only please.

Other guys will feel sad and left out if they are driving something else.

And we don't want that...

lovely jubbly!

 

mechanic rang & the VR is ready to be collected

 

it seems there was a pin hole in my oil cooler somewhere & it was causing the leak when pressurised

 

new penny washer on the rear exhaust heat shield mean no more annoying little squeak when going over small bumps - that took me a little bit to work out I can tell you

 

& freshly refurb'd speedlines now have my bridgestone tread on them & ready to roll

 

just need to get to work on getting the centre caps painted to match

 

oh yeah & the small issue of trying to fit 3 rado's on my drive lol

new penny washer on the rear exhaust heat shield - stopping it from going 'twang' over small sharp bumps

bridgestones swapped over to refurb'd speedlines (centre caps pending refurb)....

I keep finding myself glancing at the VR in the work car park & im liking the black wheels & the decision to go shiny rather than matte

The VR is looking nice . I've got to fix my heatsheild too . As soon as you hit 2.5 k revs it rattles in a nasty tinny sound .

thanks m8 :)

 

im hoping to get the few scabby parts of paint whipped over quickly to get me through until I can get a full respray done

 

lol the twangy kinda noise mine made was making me think I had an issue with my rear top mounts or KW strut - such a loud noise for such a small part

Nice poppin. You luck man not only do you own 2 corrados but they both work as well. All you need now is a G60 to complete the collection. Winner winner corrado dinner.

thank you kindly m8 :)

 

ha ha it is already musical cars when I have to swap them round depending on which I want to drive the following day, another would make it comical lol

 

plus I am today trying to work out if I could raise enough for the storm turbo by selling the VR & valver, it is like torture of the mind

You lost the valver once could you live with your self if you lost it again? I couldn't

 

hmmm now that is a good question

 

I think possibly giving up the VR & valver for a VRT monster could make it worth it

 

though I would probably remove the Kamei skirts first

 

that said, I do smile every time I see the valver on the drive again lol

Yep. Would be good to have a local GTG.

 

Though would arguably make some sense to head over to the VW meet held in Nuneaton every Wednesday by Bally?

indeed there are quite a few of us in the same kind of area

 

unfortunately I have only just learnt of a classic meet taking place this evening in stratford upon avon at the museum - way too late notice for me & other I would imagine

 

however, I will speak to my friend who told me of it & also have a google to see if they are regular

 

I know that for Cov, leamington & myself stratford is only half hour ish away

 

how would it be for you Tan? & others?

 

im thinking maybe we could all do the next meet if there is one
