robbymac 0 Posted February 12, 2006 I have owned three corrado all 1800 16v s but as people dont seem to like me driving corrados as i have had them all wrote off (not to fault of my own) this last one was the most abused one i have come cross (as in nothing works) ething did when i had finished i have owned it for just over a year and after 8 months i had some ford mondeo pull out in front of me and it damaged the bumer and wing so the ins wrote it off i brought it back and went to town on her re-spray,five stud conversion,audi wheels the list goes on and she does look turn heads what do you think?

dragon 0 Posted February 12, 2006 I think the mondeo owners are jealous of corrados so he done it on purpose because everytime i see one they always want to get embarrassed by trying to race god i hate them and dont let it put you off CORRADOS Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
robbymac 0 Posted February 12, 2006 the wheels are just winter wheels i only paid £100 for audi wheels with tyres but didnt need tyres wrong size so sold them for £50 but they do look real nice with those wheels on as they was only cheap ones Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
