  1. Nice wheels, both sets.. I think they will be 1992.. Mike will know for definite and will give you the low down on bolt replacement etc..
  2. Nice one and they are present.. The long one is tatty but can easily make another one..
  3. What are the seals you need? I bought a Valeo one recently and don't recall there being seals in with it..ill dig it out and have a look..
  4. Im keen for the reservoirs..no postage needed if you'll drop them off at spring garden lane, gosport...
  5. What colour are the HT leads and what heat shields have you got? Id like a down pipe as well.. Id like it posting to Glasgow, if easy pops is ok with it you can send the gear as a oner as I'm only round the corner from him..
  6. Torqueparts (used to be Justmatz) can make whatever you like.. They made me a set of Nothelle mats recently and they are lovely..
  7. Was a good show, nice to go to a real VW show and not just dominated by air ride and over the top cars.. I think i saw about 12 corrados all in..
  8. Love the metallic rasp these cars make, have never had the pleasure of taking the wheel but have been put in the boot a couple of times as a passenger.. Agreed on the comment about it being a manual. My mate had one with the smg, not my thing and definitely not his either when it went pop...
  9. I am risking it and using the ones that are far harder to clean.. Who thinks that means the RS?? Nope, Nothelles, far more difficult when in situ as you get so much more exposed arch work to deal with.. I had hoped the new steering wheel would be ready but it won't be until middle of next week...
  10. A couple of recent pictures.. These were at Fitted show, Wetherby.. Good venue, some good cars but the older stuff (and we are in that bracket) is lost amongst the very heavily modified newer stuff.. And this one, well, just because i love it.. Have spent a lot of time trying to get this corner set up correctly, I'm happy with it as it stands..
  11. Happy days.. Over to the weather, if its raining I'm not playing...
  12. You'll have to excuse my M6 knowledge here but will this affect anyone coming straight down the M6 from the North? Ive tried to look at some maps and it looks like it shouldn't but could someone who knows the area better shed any light?
  13. Mine arrived today Jim, thanks for sorting this out.. Please feel free to keep making more hard to find parts...
  14. My car isn't exactly 'rubbing on double yellows; but is low enough and the Arcan fits underneath with no issues.. I got mine quite recently and its a much improved design on the old one i had. The new one is a twin piston 1.8 tonne lifter and so far so good.. Same offer from me if anyone needs to visit Costco i have a card..
  15. I think the guy in the States is trying to buy the soft top one. Maybe someone should approach VW about the Storm..
  16. Is the one left in the Museum a Storm? Have followed the thread on Vortex about the two Magnums and Convertible that have made their way to the US...
  17. That engine bay is brilliant and goes to show R32 conversions can look factory.. The bottle is sold, back to the guy i bought it from.. For reference through its a Mk2 Scirocco Storm bottle..
  18. When i bought one (the ABS version) it cam with the cap..
  19. If you have ABS then that isn't the one you need.. Sadly the ABS one is about 60 quid..
  20. Ive found some part numbers and sent the parts man an email. I hope its straightforward to fit them. Corrado clocks are fragile.. Some more info. 2. The oil gauge was a bit more load following tonight. What pressure are people getting at idle? 3. To get the alternator to 'start' i need to hot 3k revs. Anyone else had this?
  21. Just got back from a show today and i have a few electrical issues going on that id like some advice on. 1. The battery light in the cluster is dead, how is it connected in the clocks and is it a special bulb/LED? 2. My oil pressure gauge isn't load following and is sticking, i can get it to move by tapping the gauge pod. Is this problem going to make me sad or is there something simple i can try? 3. My alternator doesn't start charging the battery until i give the engine a rev, i can drive at low revs and battery voltage falls, once revved battery voltage indicates 13 +. Any ideas? Numbers two and three have arrived at the same time, to be honest I've no ideas how long the battery light has been out..
  22. Ive sent him a message.. Just seems a shame if it is an unusual part for it go back..
