VR6 0 Posted June 12, 2005 You can add more than one attachment per post .... Looking very nice! Get some photo's in the Show Some Lovin' thread :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigneil 0 Posted June 13, 2005 Phil - no probs mate, figured you guys were hung over, the 4x4 suspension was not put back on either VR6 - I actually didn't know that... Maybe I can work that out for next time! I think Hugo has just added some 3 way onto the Corrado Wales Lovin post! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Claret Badger 0 Posted August 11, 2005 not to be rude - how much did she cost? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigneil 0 Posted August 11, 2005 £7,500 with the RS's and FK's included It's quite alot really but there aren't many about in a dark colour with dark leather sub 80k miles. I was also still drunk when I bought it - I nearly bought a 328i Sport instead, good job I didn't as the engines are made of cardboard and fall apart.

biggerbigneil 0 Posted August 23, 2005 Cheers for the nice replies! Radford - My license plate is seriously cool I'll have you know! I'm having my speedlines refurbed this week! I can't believe how expensive it is! I also have a couple of dents which are being removed tomorrow by Dents Plus. They are the size of a 50p piece at the largest so shouldn't ruin the paint, however I'll give it a darn good polish up after! I'm still on the original paint all round which apparently is a good thing? Personally I'd rather have a fully resprayed car to factory standard Recently purchased a 50mm front spoiler with the metal pannel above and all the screws/bolts for £82 from the stealers :shock: and that was trade price! I really need to get a different rear wiper as the standard one looks very silly with the Lupo fronts. Going to have a look at Colbornes tomorrow at those transporter vans and see what I thinks I need to get my car looking pretty for the Coupehaus massive!

biggerbigneil 0 Posted August 31, 2005 Dents have been removed by Ben @ Dents Plus who I can highly recommend and I have used the Maguiars Clay and polish which has also worked a treat! The Speedlines are suppose to be ready this Friday (I hope) which is cutting it fine as the solitudes are looking a little worse for wear and not ED38 worthy. The 50mm spoiler has been fitted and I prefer it over the 90mm one - it makes the front look wider I think. Just replaced the VW badges on the front and back also and touched up some paint also. This weekend should be a good opportunity for some new pics and hopefully she will be on the CCGB stand for Sunday! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigneil 0 Posted September 19, 2005 I don't suppose anyone took any pics of my car at ED38? and yes unfortunately she is for sale please see page 1 Neil Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigben 0 Posted September 19, 2005 I think you would get more interest if you put the Gay, sorry Cay number plate back on it. The corrado did win best gay car of the year 1989 after all, according to Guy's mate... :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigneil 0 Posted September 19, 2005 Really???? If you aren't taking the piss I take it you mean 1999? or did the prize go to the pink Roller? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigben 0 Posted September 19, 2005 1989 ! When it first came out :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 24, 2005 Lovely. I like the ride height too, spot on. Did you prefer it on the Speedlines, ride and handling wise in the end? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZippyVR6 0 Posted September 24, 2005 I'm having my speedlines refurbed this week! I can't believe how expensive it is! Where are you getting your Speedies refurbed? About time i got some real wheels back on mine, and would be interested to know how much im looking at. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted September 24, 2005 I got my redone by http://www.pristinealloywheels.co.uk at a cost of £230 and they're mint, well worth the money. I bought 6 Speedlines off someone for £60 and they came out to my work, took 4 of the best ones and sent them back better than new! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted September 24, 2005 looks spot on mate , i like the oem and modded look but not the neglected look looks minty Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigneil 0 Posted September 25, 2005 Cheers Guys! Kev - The ride on the Speedlines is perfect and the new Avon tyres are very good also compared to the dunlop sports I have on the solitudes. The FK's are actually pretty spot on after recently driving the car with the original suspension back on. I really didn't enjoy the ride on the RS's Zippy - I got the wheels refurbed with Wicked Wheels in Guildford - they did a very good job, they were going to go to spit and polish until I read a review by Dave (GradeAFailure) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
