  1. WOW!!!! They look even better then I thought they would. They really suit the colour!! Hi Bobby, they are fantastic wheels and probably one of the best sets out there but never been up for sale anywhere.
  2. I'm after 4 to use instead of locking nuts.
  3. Nice wheels but you've got them rested on the car!!
  4. I'd have another, it was the acceleration as I remember it always used to push you back into the seat!
  5. Nice colour, is it the 225bhp or 210? I had a 51 plate 210bhp one in denim blue with silver leather, it was only a year old at the time but we sold it for a TT and regretted it afterwards. The S3 is a really nice motor with great acceleration as I remember!
  6. Good work Matt, just couldn't keep it quiet then eh!!!!! You'll have to fetch it down and take me for a spin, does it need a remap?
  7. I would be a maybe but depends how it clashes with my daughters swimming championships around that time.
  8. I'm going to fit a set before March next year and the group buy is great but doesn't look like we will achieve the 11+ to get a good discount to justify me spending the money now. Chances are I wont get to install them until after new year so a £25 saving isn't worth the outlay at this moment when I have a few other things to pay for. Sorry guys.
  9. This thread went in a completely different direction to what I thought although car polishing is quite a hobby anyway. I was thinking more that it looks a really nice, completely standard Corrado and wouldn't mind to see interior pics, mileage etc etc. Didn't know if it was anyones on here.
  10. You can never have too many photos!!
  11. Hi Matt, You can get them from VW, if you order today you will get tomorrow. Not got a Schrick have you???
  12. Did you take the ABS pump off to do?
  13. Brilliant stuff and exactly what I want to do over winter. Is it easy taking the engine out? What have you done to get the ABS pump so good?
  14. Snow foam is great but it is only a pre-wash, you still need to clean it properly afterwards. If it's detailed with a DA polisher it's pretty hard to damage the paint, there's plenty of lacquer on there. My next challenge is to wet sand and polish my Golf.....
  15. The finish would last a good while if it's washed properly (snow foam, 2 buckets etc). You need to accept that if you pay for a macine polish then no more car washes and you need to invest in good cleaning gear. I would have said that mine has a similar finish and mine stays scratch free.
  16. Just seen this on detailing world, anyone on here, looks really nice. http://www.detailingworld.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=320415
  17. Going to look really nice with that interior, nice recaros and you'll be original with them not being re-trimmed. Think you need some silver wheels though to break up some of the black. Once done you'll definitely be worthy of some trophys, get it in a show and shine.
  18. Just found this one from a motor show in Hull this year (my mates Calibra and Capri in the background)
  19. Looks nice on the Porsche rims, they fill the arches well. Looking forward to seeing it on the new wheels. You fitted the steering wheel yet?
  20. Just love Classic green storms and those BBS's just make them better.
  21. I also wouldn't mind a set if anyone else has any. mine has leather door cards but they are re-trimmed normal ones.

    Brilliant, was only thinking about this last night!!!!!!!! Definitely want the cams and a remap when its taxed next year.
  23. Quick picture of mine taken from a win at a local classic car concours show. Car now Sorn'd for the winter.
