  1. Good to hear mate, Your bonnett sounds like a cat has been using it as a scratching matt. pretty common as they like to sit on the warmth of a car that attracts the sun heat.

    New wiper link

    Hi has anyone got a new one of these linkages for sale for window wiper motor ? I'm trying to rebuild my wiper unit with as many new parts as possible. Thanks Part number 536955325 https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/U43eYI6x4uvqVvv_CLgPaNWr9CCruZkl4WR84zoIhgPR0YmcFIey4hQVJNgCfM-YM5sMGg=s170 Also a new one of these if possible. Part number 536955216
  3. Thanks for the message VW Rule it wont let me reply to your message off here and dare sign out and back in incase it locks me out of the site again for a week. Cheers
  4. Seems to be a car the seller has come into ownership rather then purchased . Which could be exceptional good for the buyer to negotiate a discounted price.

  6. The interior looks very unworn which is a good sign. Blood shockingly nice 1 owner G60 for sale to with 61K. Best time for a few years there has been a selection of very clean rados on the market.
  7. Also to add Im sure the old skool on here know about this little mod but those that don't. You can get a cover for the wiper motor and it fits perfect, it was from a Passat and classics sell it for about £12.00 Part number C3A2 955 128 Last two pictures on album shows the cover I fitted today. https://photos.app.goo.gl/KofL9bRESGSeZJv47
  8. Wish I had gone for these now pretty much the same price. https://phenixengineering.com/shop/corrado-billet-euro-light-adjuster-kit/
  9. 100 percent agree. I spent a fortune on these and have fitted and adjusting but a crap feeling when you buy something new and bits flying off, not sure how long they will last but all I can say is I was careful to install but when you push in and twist to house they start have little chips flying off !!!! It is a very brittle plastic it should have more play in it . In fact it should be aluminum in my opinion .
  10. Pretty much my exact thought. I have a spare complete mech - you can still get the passenger nipple that the wiper houses on to but drivers is obsolete, I have a complete spare mech - but these links are going to be a pain in the ronson in the future as they are obsolete. Let me know if you fix it mate as I have exactly the same issue. I will also update if I manage to fix it.
  11. Ok update, Headlights are transformed well worth getting the reflectors done. The new headlamp adjusters OE VW form ARZ in Germany that cost a fortune, what can I say! To fit them you have to press them in and twist to house to the black cover the bit where the seal is. So anyway the new old stock started to crumble under some little pressure, but there was plenty enough left to house, so in other words the new old stock are fragile as well so I would consider a modification rather then buying, quite clearly the plastic manufacture is well below standard. Hey HO !
  12. Think your probably right chap sounds like the spline has worn , it sort of happens for the first minute or so and then the wiper seems to settle and not slam the trim anymore.
  13. I fitted mine today as well I think I have something wrong with my passenger wiper arm or the bolts needs adjusting as still hitting the lower plastic window trim on full speed if that makes sense. Also still missing part of the centre screen. Checked and my arms are x2 rhd drive Lupo GTi so a bit mythed by it!
  14. The main thing apart from the adjusting is that they have a seal as well so if your rear adjuster is cracked or snapped it could let damp and water in the headlight unit.
  15. I actually have purchased two of the adjusters and just got off the phone to the councillor seeking redemption.
  16. That headlight is for an early car DR Mat. Arz are selling the OE adjuster for 60 euro each . By the way you can still buy the seal for the adjuster.
  17. Nonetheless they could not add a premium on to the car at the time as been a limited edition compared to the other models for sale. Im sure this car will do well but I would rather a black recaro interior anyday of the week. Infact for 40 K I would want two VR6 engines and a dual VSR ha ! Mk2 golf are a million times easier to run agreed ! Also cars like the E30 have a huge aftermarket and classic division support network so another great classic to own + BBS range is much more of a bargain !
  18. As regards to a MOT as long as you have evidence you have addressed it then not a problem at all .
  19. If you look at the pricing it appears that VW had it priced similar to other Corrado VR6 at the time and did not even put a premium on the car - I think the color combo was not an easy sell to be honest. There is a black VR6 automatic one with the same mileage and age that was even a few hundred more expensive.

  20. There is that feeling I have had with cars where I have spent that much money and just want to recoup- I nearly did it with my Rado last year but decided against it as why should someone else enjoy my hard work.
  21. Let’s get things into respective it has a red recaro interior and a body colour that you can spray off the paint chart . This is not know homologation special like an E30 M3 or a 190E EVO or even a cosworth . The car has no race history it was an incentive to get some laszyasses to sell some more cars. Also let’s be honest the colour scheme would not be a common required taste as red is not everyone’s cup of tea . Sorry just my opinion. Hopefully it will sell for that as I'm sure it will increase prices as a whole. Perfect rado for sale for me would be. Fully restored VSR manifold Black Recaros Vdo gauge pod Gemini Vw motorsport 6 dogleg gear box . Now that’s what stock special edition should be and also with lightweight panels and spoilers, power upgrade of at least 30bhp. Also I saw a 964 sell for 37K a couple of weeks backs from a Porsche specialist, what would you rather have ? Then you have a Golf Rallye which you could probably pick up for 20k which is a real special edition with many individual/specific parts which would of cost VW a hell of a lot of money to develop, not a phone call to Recaro trimming department !!!
  22. I used a place called Mars in Walsall . They sanded down the leather steering wheel and then spray paint the steering wheel with interior leather paint. Think it cost me £60.00.
