Hi all,

 

Thought id share this with you. Sorry not the best pic and my scanner wouldnt.. well scan. So ive just posted a pic from my phone. Its a Corrado review in the afore mentioned paper (dates 9th may 2012), that my mechanic pointed out to me. To my suprise i see that its featured Kips Corrado :D

See link for a better pic - http://i1143.photobucket.com/albums/n639/critical_mass08/20120515_183040.jpg

 

Note the mistakes, SOHC, 2661cc to mention a couple. (assuming you can read the words due to the pic quality/size)

 

Not sure if you were aware of this Kip, if you were you kept it quiet as i didnt see anything on the forum about it.

 

Enjoy :D

I think there should be a few dash screw covers, roof mouldings & other mental costly things in the parts pricing section too!!

I don't think that's me.. I don't remember giving them any information. Possible their writer just has the same name as me?!

 

I'm confused :)

The pricing on parts is a little off, id say. Front wishbone bush £2.48 inc VAT... that cant be right :lol:

Aside from a few errors though, I thought they were pretty good with their summary... :)

Why don't they contact the club to have the facts of the article proof read? (or the appropriate owner's club for any article) wouldn't cost them any more than an e-mail and would save them looking stupid or misinforming people??

Makes you wonder what other garbage gets printed and readers assume is factually correct because it's in print, at least with the web you can cross check with other sources to try to get to the truth, ...or just get 20 different answers :lol:

I think I've been on the web too long, it's too easy to get lured into the 'someone is wrong on some minor point' mentality :lol:
