Andy Brookes 0 Posted February 24, 2006 After seeing Dec's post about his £56 Scirocco and his entry into the http://www.ScallyRally.co.uk myself and a couple of mates who all work in the same office and all drive Corrado's decided we fancied a go too. Just paid the enterance fee this morning, so should get our number sometime today. We are now on the look out for a Passat GL5 Estate, pref post 83 as they are fuel injected. Anyone got one stored away that they would sell for £100 or less?? We are currently trying to secure sponsorship from work and local garages for spares and tyres etc. We will be collecting sponsorship for Breast Cancer as we have all have had close family or friends fight breast cancer in the last couple of years. Our team name is Team Rado, but this may change depending on sponsorship deals! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andy Brookes 0 Posted February 24, 2006 thats not looking so bad, but think we are going to stick with VAG. Never had a Volvo so dont know them to well mechanically and would rather not a turbo on an old motor. Like the look of the leather though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

conleycrew3 0 Posted February 24, 2006 the passat looks quite tidy, shame about the damp interior though, will start stinking like a bird who never bathes after a bit! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andy Brookes 0 Posted February 24, 2006 keep umm coming, think we have decided its got to be a 100 Avant now as John is really taken with the number of air vents on the dash!!!! We are going for the long low look, the suspension will be dumped and will find some phat wheels. We are going for style points!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
