Hello from Essex

[TimJ 10]

First time Corrado owner saying hello... I'm Tim from Essex

 

I bought this 16v a couple of weeks ago, would have posted this up earlier but it's been giving me some trouble already meaning time spent elsewhere :/ This is my third and 'modern' VW it will also be my daily driver. A VR6 would have been nice but the base ones seem just too cheap??

 

Here is a pic, pretty pleased with it (problems aside) it has a really clean leather interior, BBS wheels, all the electrics work and it's fairly original which I like:

Hi Tim. Welcome to corrado ownership.

 

Everyone would have one if they didn't have problems, its part of the corrado's character.

Thanks for the welcome, that was quick!

I can leave that kind of character all the same... but back on the road today so can't complain if it stays that way.

Looks nice and original; get a few more pics up fella. There's a few of us now kicking about in the Essex area so I'm sure any help you need will be forthcoming.

 

Welcome

Nice looking car. Just out of interest, who do you lot all use to look after your car? I'm down Brentwood way and need some work doing on my VR, but don't want to chance just any old garage.

 

Cheers, James

I find Si and Paul down at Strictly Dubs are good guys.

I do most of my work myself now, didn't have great experiences just using the local general mechanics type of garages.

 

Am sure someone recommended a place in Maldon to me.

I am a professional mechanic so i tend to do all the work myself :) if anyone local needs a hand with anything just give me a shout and im generally more than willing to help.

Hi from another Essex member:)

[TimJ 10]

Brilliant loads of Essex Corrados. I will be keeping a lookout for you all on the roads.

I'm in Little Canfield and kettle is always on if anyone wants to come and take a look.

 

James153 where do you work? I had a massive row with my previous garage so am also on the lookout for a good mechanic. I'll have a crack at some things but always need a plan B.

 

I've put another thread in the members section with a couple more photos.
