Nothing like the feeling of getting a new car, especially a corrado!. Are you keeping it totally original? ;D

I'll probably lower it because it drives like a boat. Needs new exhaust so I'll choose something tasteful that will last, so any recommendations on exhaust are welcome! Was thinking powerflow? There custom aren't they?Then i can work on cleaning engine up and charger upgrade!
strangely my mk2gti beats it 2 60 then g60 has a go to 100 then mk2 again untill g60 catches up and wins @ about 131.? ;D

Very nice looking 'raddo.The colour looks really good. I have always loved the shape of them. How does the G60 compare to a VR6?

Quality looking car matey, raddos are fine motors. When/if I eventually get round to putting an exhaust on mine I'm going Powerflow, individual and you can choose what bits and bobs you want on it. Look at their website for info and stockists  http://www.powerflow.uk.com/ I think the girl in the picture comes free with any new exhaust too ;D

Aye there is that. They got some independant tests done and here are the results http://www.powerflow.uk.com/test.html but alas that was on a chav mobile too.  ::) Still shouldn't detract from the fact that powerflow are supposed to be good exhausts though.  :)

I don't know how VR to G60 compare... Didn;t try a vr as out of my price range and didn't want to full in love with something i couldn;t afford lol.

I'm def thinking about powerflow, but don't know how much they will come out at.
Whats pros of miltek then?

Car needs sunroof respray and new interior (boring grey)

Have some bad news tho' driving home tonight and i couldn't put it into gear. pulled over kept trying but could only grind gears wouldn't go in.
turned car off and then put in gear... start up and she started moving with clutch down. Clutch failure? alinment? or extreme gear box?

have checked the fluid for the wet clutch... all ok.

Any ideas?

Engaging 1st and 2nd gears can be a known problem on the corrados.
