  1. I still regret selling my first one 10 years ago, I had to break the second due to the bodged accident damage I found My current seems to spend more time in bits than on the road and needs a full re-spray at some point but I know if I were to sell I'd miss a Corrado in my life again The only car I regret selling more than my first G60 was my 3dr cossie Rather than a clio (which did not impress me at all when I drove a cup 172) have you thought of Polo GTI, same sort of size but probably a lot more reliable and has better tuning prospects.
  2. For the likes of sat nav and phone you could wire in a multi USB port, some come with extra power supply which could be 12v (from memory) That would cut the amount of space needed and give you the options you want
  3. I love a clean black rado
  4. The coupes always seem to be the poor relation, just look at the rocco against the mk1 golf the rado against the mk2 & 3 Golf (although mk3s seem to be broken up in larger quantities) and now the rocco again against the mk5, 6 and 7 golfs I'd love a new rocco but I have a mk5 golf I saw a perfectly good rado g60 get broken the other day cos the guy had used the engine in a mk1 and had lost the will to put another engine in the rado, it was black with no to very little rust and a full heated, electric cream leather recaro interior upsetting...
  5. They are around in Norfolk and Suffolk, I've seen 2 this weekend and mine should be back on the road next weekend and at the snet car park for the touring cars
  6. Yeah, mine are like that as well

  8. I can wait, I have buggered my gearbox this week so that now has shot up the priority list :(
  9. I've been waiting for someone to do a door build
  10. How do they get the ripple effect (probably the wrong word) along the bottom of the sills after treating for rust?
  11. Nice, white wheels are the way forward ;)
  12. How did you get them to fit, I have a pair and couldn't find a way to make them fit a Corrado. I ended up buying a pair from a Renault clio 197 with bolt on brackets (same as Seat brembos)
  13. My rado had 170k mls on it and I had a freshly rebuilt 1.8T in the garage so it was a bit of a no brainer for me. I believe the newer systems are more reliable than the old k jet injections aswell and without stressing the engine and turbo to much I can get nearly 100bhp more than the old 1.8 16v with just a remap.
  14. Dark blue or black VR in Worlingham, Beccles, Suffolk Reg M ### TCH Turned into Worlingham Manor
  15. looks good, keep the updates coming
  16. I have a box from a mk6 golf on mine and thought the same as the drive cups turned the same way. But when I fitted it and had the driveshafts on I noticed they turned opposite ways when turned, was gutted.
  17. Got this beam free when I bought a pair of mk4 calipers and braided hoses and have been thinking about cleaning it up, getting it powder coated and new bushes etc It has a fair bit of rust lumps falling off of it, do you think its to far gone? Sorry for the amount of pics but I wanted to give a good idea of its condition
  18. The strips virtually fell off as they were only held by small bits of tape at each end, the old glue is a b****h to get off though
