Majik 0 Posted July 13, 2003 I saw this Corrado in Max power live i was glad to see a corrado in there but when i saw the front i wish i hadn't seen it :twisted: I would've thought Bora lights may look better than mk4 lights if any other lights at all. Like the idea of the oversized rear spoiler though, was thinking about a similar job for my own one. If you look at the guys other auctions you will see he is well his mechano sets, but sorry mate that stuff dont work on these cars! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pimp 0 Posted July 14, 2003 I'm speechless. Certainly not my look. I always thought of the C as an understated car. You know, I've the power but don't need to tell anyone. I wish him luck, not as much as the buyer though!:lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggrim 0 Posted July 14, 2003 I had a nightmare lastnight that I opened the garage and that car was sitting there instead of mine :x The rest of the car is great, pity it's got a face like a welders bench!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markTTC 0 Posted July 14, 2003 Good lord that front looks wrong on a C :clown: . I wonder if he realised that after doing it and that's why he wants to get rid of it? :lol: I've just been on the Vortex site - some of those Yanks actually LIKE it! :lol: http://forums.vwvortex.com/zerothread?id=932372 Cheers Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Rams 0 Posted July 14, 2003 I have just taken out a loan and bought the car!!! I gave him the asking price and its lush. :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D I wish I had seen it sooner! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR Zen 0 Posted July 14, 2003 mark 16v i can't understand how they can like such a car i'm very surprised ... you never know the yanks may take the front end onboard and call it american look spec :lol: only kidding :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BigTartanJudge 0 Posted July 14, 2003 Hi all, So what about this one guys? Loks pretty nice to me and quite a good price too.

cheesy 0 Posted July 15, 2003 Was chatting to my mate tonight who knows the guy who owns the corrado, he put up for sale cos since it was at max, nearly all the panels on the car have been keyed. It really Pi$$es me off when people have ago at cars :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted July 15, 2003 Yeah, now that DOES piss me off. Fair enough, we had a bit of a joke about the car, but it is someones pride and joy and they have spent a lot of time and money on it. The losers who go around keying cars... well, words can't describe how much that frustrates me.. you'd love to catch em at it, and then just break both their arms. You don't mess with another mans automobile! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggrim 0 Posted July 15, 2003 Yup, that is rule number 2!!!! Mines been done and I wish I'd caught the little sh1t£ who dunnit :mad: :mad: :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

stormseeker 0 Posted July 15, 2003 Could always try Calibra lights instead :shock: - That should unite the warring Corrado/Calibra factions.... Imagine the post on the Calibra forum - "I've just fitted everything from a VW Corrado apart from the headlights to my Calibra, now it's got real class...."

Rams 0 Posted July 15, 2003 jims16v, Jim, you sound like a funny bloke, I will make apoint of meeting you when we're all at the next event. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted July 15, 2003 Sure thing.. obviously as I am not currently a Corrado owner, I am not going to the majority of the events.. but I do go to a handful of West Midlands ones whenever they crop up and I am hoping to go to the CCGB thing at the end of August.. I don't quite know what it is, but its a day out eh? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Campaign 0 Posted July 15, 2003 One thing to bear in mind chaps and chappesses... if he gets a bid, but it doesn't reach the reserve price then he still has to pay the ebay commission on it, which by my reckoning would be about.... £300.... Somebody really out to bid on it, just to teach him a lesson :mad: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OneEeitTee 0 Posted July 15, 2003 that is the ugliest front end on corrado Ive ever seen :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Somebody really out to bid on it, just to teach him a lesson :mad: Yeah, but if the reserve price is only like £15,100 and someone bids on it.. then they are screwed. And I wouldn't want to try and withdraw my auction with the excuse 'it was just for the crack' ;) I'm a bit annoyed though as I emailed about 2 days ago asking what the reserve was and he didn't bother replying to me... does he even wanna sell the damn thing?!

Jim 2 Posted July 16, 2003 Insane.. though if the auction doesn't finish successfully, the guy now has to pay eBay commission on that £15,000 'thing' of his :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
