Portent 0 Posted May 21, 2012 I would buy this car as I always liked aqua blue corrado but can't afford it. If I only could sell my z-engineering supercharged and cams. SOmebody will get a good car for little money. I got talking to KADVR6 at yesterdays meet and I'm pretty sure he said he was on the lookout for some cams.

robo22sri 10 Posted July 22, 2012 This bloody golf gets worse! how wrong you can be about a car with a stack of history! The bloody floor has a hole the size of the palm of your hand! the brake lines all corroded together! Tried to change the damage brake hoses yesterday and rounded off the brake copper union! I might have to sell the bloody schrick and hispecs just to pay for the damaged bits! Does anyone know the part number for the copper pipe work from the cylinder to the body union? i am after the 2 front ones Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
