M4RTiN C-TDI 0 Posted August 15, 2005 This topic is also created on vwvortex but i figured since it is typed in english i would be stupid not to post it overhere as well! This topic is about my website wich is getting more and more popular among the Corrado owners on the internet. It has even been translated to Japanese and there are some nice Japanese Corrado profiles online! Whats this site about? Its is an cardomain-like website but only made for the VW Corrado from all country's. It has an nice searchengine with options like Corrado colours and engine type and much more. If you want you can register, add 5 pictures in your Corrado profile wich will be automatic resized these days. Room for improvement? If so, please mail me!! i want to make this site as good as it gets. We are already running for a couple of years so the site has evolved maturly i believe. Its even possible to make a PDF file of your profile to print for a GTG/meeting/treffen or something! Why this topic? If you look on the left of the site, you will see all listed country's and to my regret the UK has only 88 Corrado's registered. Holland is a really small country and has 500 registered!! See the difference When browsing thru this forum, you see nice sig's and pics of great Corrado's. They should be also be represented on this website and so be easiely viewed by users from over the whole world! Many of them could easily reach for the top 30 when updated often enough... Where to go? http://www.corrado-database.nl Please take a look at it, and register, make my work worth its time :) Ps. sorry for the English Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

M4RTiN C-TDI 0 Posted August 15, 2005 strange indeed, we only have years ago set everything to G60 when we where converting to a new system, since your user id is very young you must be converted along with this system and since then never have updated i guess :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted August 15, 2005 I still get this when logging in:- Er is een probleem met uw username validatie, controleer of deze wel bestaat... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted August 15, 2005 Thats because he's banned anyone called Kevhaywire from entering, his server doesn't have the capacity to handle the potential massive post count ! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M4RTiN C-TDI 0 Posted August 15, 2005 if you use this username "Kevhaywire" it has to work, the error says that your username is invalid, maybe you have tried it with no capital ? personal todo-list: also translate this error. :rabiit: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

chrishill 0 Posted August 16, 2005 just signed up, although i have no idea what colour code my car is, randomly guessed at something that looked sort of silver... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Neil VR6 0 Posted August 16, 2005 Yeah, if you guess and then look at your car outside of the profile edit screen it actually tells you what it's called. Then you invariably have to go back in, edit and then see if you've got it right again. It's a nightmare with the blues as there's so many of them!

M4RTiN C-TDI 0 Posted August 18, 2005 for all members, the site is in english available! some of you people have it set at dutch :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Yandards 0 Posted August 18, 2005 For those of you that don't know your colours please find a list below for model years along with your trim code. Its on the sticker in the boot or in your service handbook; last bit of bold text before the seeming random collection of numbers and letters. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
M4RTiN C-TDI 0 Posted August 18, 2005 to have a Corrado its practicly restricted to know your own color code ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
