nice line up n3p. ULEZ etc is a bugger for those it affects, a Corrado in the garage would be a lovely thing to have when wanted alongside any of those lovely motors 😄

Just to update on my banjo bolt situation....

After a short hospital stay I finally got a chance to look into getting the old girl sorted and to my surprise when I looked at the smaller of the two banjo bolts, the one I took off the car didnt have the small filter in it, so I presume at some point its been changed and not with an OEM bolt. 

Given the car ran fine, just going to run on that basis, so ordered a couple of HEL performance stainless steel ones and also ordered a couple of the large bolts from the LLL website, so thanks for those Matt it was very useful.

No excuses for me now!

Good luck Dougie. Mine is booked in end of the month for a proper alignment with rear shims and camberbolts and changing clutch master and slave. Horrible to drive at the moment due to bad alignment.

I'm still here! - finally working on the Corrado again... engine is back from Silverstone and close to going in.... lost the flywheel over the years so looking for one of those and ARB bushes... 

I keep meaning to join and post some pictures, but the forum seems a bit hit and miss... sometimes pages dont work etc?

Actually if anyone has a flywheel and maybe a good gearbox let me know! 😉 are the ARB bushes on a stock setup VR 18mm?

Can't seem to start a new thread, so will just reply here. 

Not often the fleet is all together, but took the corrado out for it's last run before SORN for winter. 

Managed to fit a new water pump and radiator, then noticed the wires had broken  on the O2 sensor again, so fixed that as it was running rough. Thought I had cracked it as the mpg was heading back out the teens into the mid twenties, but just as I pulled into the drive it started popping and banging so will need to fault finding again.

The joys of classic car ownership!
