jenks 0 Posted March 26, 2004 After alot of saving and 6 months of patient looking I finally have my 1st Corrado! God shes amazing, :D worth the wait and money! My mates now all want one and the attention from the birds is just quality. 8) Shes just back from the garage, had a major service and a few bits and bobs, Timing belt getting done next week. But she still aint running right :( (see problem page!) Plans for just now is an exhaust system from Free-flow and coilovers. Momo knob,steering wheel,sound system all been put in jst now. Just like to say a big thanks to the forum, with out it I wouldnt have bought a Corrado properly and safely (excellent Buying guide!) and would be goin around in a mk3 golf! So im ordering the forum stickers and joining the corrado club and ill see all the scottish owners at the Rolling road day! Ohh an will I be the youngest Corrado owner? turned 19 two weeks ago, Just dont mention the 'excess'!!! :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
