Bilstein B12 Suspension Mk4 Climate control (without aircon) 02J Gear Linkage 16 Speedline Vento Cup Race Wheels with 4/5mm Rainsport Tyres Cruise Control Double Din Headunit with Sat Nav and 32GB Micro SD Card Uprated Headlight Wiring Loom Aero Wipers Clean cloth interior Uprated cooling fan New Old Stock Steering Wheel Cat 1 Alarm with Certificate A change in lifestyle means that I unfortunately need to move on with the Corrado. It has had a complete mechanical rebuild in the last 10k which included stripped and coated subframes and wishbones, rear axles and all other running gear. New bearing all around and a complete brake system overhaul. The brake system overhaul replaced the unreliable rear bias valve with a more reliable 4 channel ABS setup with new pipework throughout. It has 312mm brake discs and braided lines throughout but the pads are not fantastic. They have a bit of a poor initial bite but work fantastically otherwise. The car also has the larger and more powerful Mk4 Golf GTi servo and master cylinder. It has had new OEM bushes everywhere. The only uprated bush is the front wishbone rear bush which has come from the Mk4 Golf R32 platform. It has had a 24v conversion carried out which runs completely reliably and efficiently. I regularly obtain 450 miles from a tank. The conversion was made to look and operate in a completely OEM manner and doesn't display any strange quirks that some conversions do. Part of the conversion included fitting cruise control which works in exactly the same way in which it would have if it were still fitted to the donor car. The engine has done approx 125k I believe. The chains do rattle a touch but the AUE engine does not suffer from the same chain issues that the R32 engine was famous for. A brand new clutch was fitted during the conversion. The standard heater controls have been replaced with the Climate control from a Mk4 Golf GTi and works perfectly. The only part that doesn't work is the aircon as that was never fitted during the conversion but could be if the new owner fancies a project. The interior is pretty much perfect and it had a new old stock steering wheel fitted during the conversion. The bad bits and the reason for the price: The mechanics are spot on but the bodywork on this car is definitely letting the car down. There is no rust apart from a small bit on some of the arches, but they are really small. A few mm's across. What lets it down is the paintwork. It's showing its 202k miles badly. You could replace the front wings but the car would need a respray ideally. I won't try and butter this up as something it is not. I never really bothered about the paintwork as I enjoyed the car knowing I didn't have to worry about another stonechip. There is a link to the build thread in my signature and and those interested can look through my google drive page to see all of the defects in the bodywork. The price is firm at ?1500. It's worth more in pieces if you are that way inclined but I will not budge on price or swap for another project. I have been as honest as to the condition. It's 202k miles old. Great car, tatty paint, nice project for someone with access to a paintshop. The price is a side effect of using Panjo. ?1500 firm.
