EJ Taylor 22 Posted March 24, 2016 "The engine has had a significant amount of work carried out by the previous owner about 8 months ago, with receipts to prove. Head was fully stripped, pressure tested, skimmed and rebuilt new valve stem seals and valves re sat. New gaskets throughout New crank oil seal New top timing chain tensioner and chain guides New water pump New injector seals New oil, filter, coolant etc Gearbox was removed and painted" YER, in our world (corrado owners) we call that a mear service Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
EJ Taylor 22 Posted March 24, 2016 "Unfortunately the sunroof packed up and was also leaking so I decided to simplify things (less weight and less to go wrong) by just doing away with it and fixing a panel in its place (I’m not much of a sunroof fan anyway!) but a new mech and motor could be bought and easily re-fitted in future if that’s what you prefer. The rear spoiler works perfectly though which is a rare bonus on a Corrado!" "Exterior - Sunroof delete" "Bad bits - - The paintwork is the only thing that lets this car down from being a real show-stopper, there are stone chips on the front end and some lacquer peel on the roof, as well as a few age-related marks here and there. - As mentioned further up the ad, the sunroof delete does its job but it does seem to divide opinion somewhat! I personally like it but it could definitely be improved upon in the future, as it was only intended as a medium-term fix to keep the car dry and functional, with my plan being to get it properly smoothed in and resprayed with the rest of the car at a later date." Im confused, this is either a Joke, or the guy who wrote it is a few sandwiches short of a picnic. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mystic Blue VR 10 Posted March 24, 2016 It's April 1st isn't it? That's just about as poor an example of a Corrado I've seen in a while. Knock the 3 off the front of the asking price & he might have a chance. Fair play to him on the description though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
