Wayne2015 10 Posted June 28, 2015 Can you do it outside but as you say I'm a box? One warm evening this week when the heat of the sun has gone U don't know my new neighbours round here! Just been told off for parking in one neighbour s spot - let alone trying to do something that looked dodgy from outside in a box?!!! :eek: :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wayne2015 10 Posted June 28, 2015 something like that can easily be done outside with spray can , where a glove and hold it from the hinge as you spray it, then bring it straight inside being careful not to hit it, place it by an open window, you want the air/draft forcing out of the room/window so make sure you open the right one's depending on wind conditions, failing that im sure it would be fine in bath room with extractor fan on . Thanks - But I think u do not know my "Wayne's unlucky and disastrous" reputation! :eek: I think I pass - and stick with the vinyl. As discussed before, even trying to match the paint will be difficult as paint has weathered over the 20 years also compared with a new fresh spray of white candy paint... But thanks for your advice Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wayne2015 10 Posted July 11, 2015 Congratulations it's sold! Thanks Mark! Buyer s reply when he got home after 250miles or so... " Just got in. Had a short stop on way down. Car was a dream to drive. More fun the daily drive (C63) and that's a lot of fun. Thanks for everything. Will keep you posted with her development. A pleasure doing business with you " Sound guy Bought the C as a project to restore to OEM. Winter deadline is full body ReSpray to its former Candy White glory :clap: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wayne2015 10 Posted July 11, 2015 As I am C-less now I will be going thru a patch of C withdrawal symptoms - will stick a patch of nicotine (with a Corrado PIC on it) each day on both my arms. The weekly 3 times a blast on the bypass will be hugely missed by myself and my youngest. Joys of driving and huge respect and almost daily compliments from other drivers / passer bys will never be the same again. Other night 2 17 year olds started a conversation and always wanted one! Amazement from me as they are so young - and they do not look like yobs to me! Was showing buyer the C last night, and 2 passerby's commented "really nice car u got there!" Taking the PIC of both cars on the mai road - got a shout of a passing car "nice cars!" Well Sad day for me, but its done - been a roller coaster ride for me too Mostly all good, but plenty of not goods too! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wayne2015 10 Posted July 11, 2015 Well As I will be lying low now and will missed this forum hugely :( A massive thanks and respect for everyone single forum member here and the forum itself - its agreat community of like-minded and hugely friendly group of people here whom helped me hugely along the way. I will be around - but not as much... Hopefully back in 3-5years time! Anyone got a Passat moon roof , let me know! :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dox 23 Posted July 12, 2015 Hi 1st time Corrado owner bought literally this Tuesday ... Drove away from buyer and car broke down :( Unable to get into gear - RAC arrives. Apparently driving in heavy traffic and holding clutch overheats the system! RAC man suggests: Put in neutral when ever stopped. And look into Clutch Slave Cylinder! This has to be a forum record 0 - 162 pages in 6 months. The Rover looks nice, I hope it works out well for you. You'll be back :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Wayne2015 10 Posted July 13, 2015 Lol To be fair - I had the same concerns and nearly backed out a few times buying a Rover. But many online owners mostly have good things to say about the Rovers (esp the ones designed by BMW). And the people on the Rover forum as just as helpful as those on the C forum :thumbleft: For the money u can buy, I think it's a lot of car for it. And so far - touch wood - its not broken down yet :dance: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
