  1. those new wheels are super smart! i had the standard ones on mine wen i first bought it and painted the horrible yellow cente caps body colour as a reserve until my alloys came! love the mk 2 too!
  2. id have one in an instant if i could! id love to have one just to paint it like filmore out of cars!haha i even have a bag with one on which i may wear to inters! :D
  3. well my mate used a proper light set up machine so its as perfect as they are going to be! just need some money for the hid kit and new bulbs
  4. Oh OK thanks for the tip, i've heard they are quite good! hence why I picked it! Is the Magnex as quiet? as anyone I do like a good grumble as your sitting at the traffic lights, but I don't want to have god knows how many hours of loud exhausts going down a motorway! I like the standard one as its quiet when your pootling but gives a little roar when you put your foot down! but I do need a new one and stainless steal is always a good upgrade! just want one that compliments the roar from the panel filter not one that's anti social!
  5. think thats a good thing looking at that front spliter you couldnt go fast if you wanted too!
  6. i agree with this make cars use something different as eventually the petrol will run out! and you know you got the love the environment etc but i love my car i love the nice smells of a petrol gussling beast! so unless we all transfer our cars to hydrogen or whatever then bye bye raddos wen bye bye petrol! plus i dont want to loose anymore horses
  7. i appreciate the individuality but wat on earth ever possesed him to do that i hate chavy corsas!
  8. hello nice raddo love the interior looks well smart!
  9. this is only my second car ive just sold my first which was a mk4 polo so did own another vw!and i can safely say ive not owned anything else! :D would love a camper and put a porsce engine in it but omg are they expensive!

  13. oh yeah thanks for noticing ill have to pull that off me thinks or get some more!
  14. very true i love the bucket seats in the back! mine still has an unopened first aid kit from 1990 not sure if i should use some of it but i guess if you crash you wont care! :tongue: i love my 1.8l and the retro style dash! 8)
  15. yeah i think the handels will look really nice with it all smotthed got no money atm waiting for inters! thanks for all the nice comments guys! :D
  16. nah they are 16" 7.5 wanted 9s but they rub! cant wait for my coilies! picked these as ive not really seen any raddos with them and they are sooooo easy to clean bad backs are not nice spesh wen you love clening your car!
  17. well im the second owner both women and when i bought it it only had 59k miles on it its at 65k miles now! the paint work is a bit crap as the women lived in the tiny streets of devon! but its all been serviced by vw every 5000 miles! crazy old lady!
  18. i test drove both a 2l and a 1.8l and bought the 1.8l. i found when you put your foot down in the 2l the speedo didnt rev up as quick as the 1.8l it was quick when you got to the right power band. the 2l did feel alot more retricted and slower to get going in my opinion! i personnally felt that wen u put ur foot down down in the 1.8l it just keeps going and in the 2l it wouldnt get going to start! both cars i felt like you could have a nice steady lazy drive in plus ive noticed the door card has perfectb lil arm rests just in the right place! and i agree in someway that the 2l was a bit more lazy and the 1.8l is like a mk2 gti ITS BEGGING FOR A THRASHING! :D
  19. as requested here is a spec list and some pics of my raddo: its a 1.8l 16v (did test drive a 2l but it didnt seem to have the same responsiveness :shrug: ) pipercross panel filter and drilled airbox in pro angel eye head lamps m3 crystal clear rear lights and clear side repeaters badgeless front grill beesting ariel borbet t's alloys kw variant 1 coilovers (meant to be on today but not arrived from germany so hopefully here monday) things to do next is my alarm jetex oval exhaust audi door handles possibly get rs back bumper? or just get everything smoothed? respray! i love the dark burgandy pearl colour thats well nice and my big project is a R32 engine stromlaufplan_gamma4.pdf001.JPG[/attachment:3szr7r7s] Corrado92.pdf002.JPG[/attachment:3szr7r7s] passat climatronic wiring diags.pdfPICT0641.JPG[/attachment:3szr7r7s] climatronic wiring-Golf from May 01.pdfPICT0642.JPG[/attachment:3szr7r7s] 2.8l 24v Climatronic system.pdfPICT0643.JPG[/attachment:3szr7r7s] PICT0644.JPG[/attachment:3szr7r7s]
