Peacedub 10 Posted October 15, 2014 (edited) Hi fellow corrado owners, This will be my first Corrado after many years searching for one. After failing miserbly to find my perfect one i decided to go back to my roots of the MK2 Golf which is now in its build stages in becoming a maxed out 8v (a serious amount of money spent so far!)In the meantime i was driving a sensible saxo to commute to work and it was really annoying me and i was getting very jealous of my workmates driving their MK1 and MK2 Golfs. I felt left out so the hunt for a Corrado begun and low and behold a nice valver turned up 5 mile down the road from me. Its a KE- Jet and and runs pretty sweet. Im am going to go for the KR cam mod straight away which will completment the full milltek. Bodywork is sweet with regards to rust (none) few scratches and dings but hopefully get on that straight away. Also needs a set of new front seats as they are gone!! (black cloth). I dont want to dismiss my mk2 in which i am really scared of doing now i have my new toy so want to keep the spend to a minimum! Thanks for reading and look forward to sharing advice and parts,lol Steve Edited October 15, 2014 by Peacedub Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davidwort 0 Posted October 15, 2014 Nice looking pair of cars you have there, don't envy you keeping the golf's wheels clean though :-) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Peacedub 10 Posted October 16, 2014 Nice looking pair of cars you have there, don't envy you keeping the golf's wheels clean though :-) Tell me about it! im lucky enough to have purchased a special brush to clean them with to which my 3 year old enjoys using,lol. Diamond polished Borbet B's too so i take extra care with them. Hopefully going to pick some new bits for the corrado tonight and then try hide them from the mrs!!
