Critical_Mass 10 Posted May 15, 2012 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 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
northG60 0 Posted May 15, 2012 Nice article....very kind to the Corrado really didnt have a bad word to say except for the obligatory bash at the G60's charger lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Benjevw 10 Posted May 15, 2012 Nice! Wouldn't the clue be 'DOHC' on the engine cover? Lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sexybourbon 0 Posted May 15, 2012 Id say they got there pricing about bang on as well from a project to a concours car thats pretty accurate tbh Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIPVW 0 Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) Bloody hell! I want, had no idea about that! :shock: Ah Jim Taylor too. Think i remember Jim asking about this a few months ago. Edited May 15, 2012 by KIPVW Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VAG-hag 0 Posted May 15, 2012 I think there should be a few dash screw covers, roof mouldings & other mental costly things in the parts pricing section too!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted May 15, 2012 (edited) 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 :) Edited May 15, 2012 by Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Critical_Mass 10 Posted May 15, 2012 Suprised huh :lol: The pricing on parts is a little off, id say. Front wishbone bush £2.48 inc VAT... that cant be right :lol: Kip if you want it, its yours mate. Id be happy to send you it. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted May 15, 2012 Cambelt for 4 cylinder is a little off too Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidwort 0 Posted May 15, 2012 I see they have invented a new 'rare' 1.8 model too :) nice to see kip's car in there though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted May 15, 2012 Aside from a few errors though, I thought they were pretty good with their summary... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KIPVW 0 Posted May 16, 2012 Who am I to argue :lol: but yeah a fairly summary and sounding encouraging ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted May 16, 2012 Who am I to argue :lol: but yeah a fairly summary and sounding encouraging ;) 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: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G60 CS 0 Posted May 16, 2012 Bashing chargers is a bit wrong too if you look after them they're fine Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 10 Posted May 16, 2012 Who am I to argue :lol: but yeah a fairly summary and sounding encouraging ;) so you don't want to argue a concours car being 4.5-5k Kip? I'll be round with the cash in the morning. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
