A20 LEE 0 Posted March 27, 2006 Had mine 7 years now and had it MOT'd 2 weeks ago and it passed for the 8th consecutive time with no faults (could be an interesting thread). Also worth noting is that other than serviceable items and upgrades the only thing that has had to be replaced due to a fault/not working is the rear brake bias valve which was weeping fluid (touch wood he says - I don't want to tempt fate). I'd be interested in how other long term owners have fared over time of ownership in terms of repairs needed. mine has never broken down on me, think because i've owned it so long i've developed a sixth sense and can tell when something isn't quite right and its gets fixed before it breaks. MOT wise only ever rear brake lines, since i went with Goodridge never had a problem. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bojmobile 0 Posted March 28, 2006 Had the VR since July 04 and had the valver a year before that! If something happened to the VR (god forbid) - I'd only even contemplate replacing it with another Corrado - but it'd have to be a Storm! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
