I have posed a few pics before but here are a few of how it is now:







And under the bonnet



Work in progress





Global warming?



As it was when i bought it



Its a 1994(M) Corrado VR6
Blackberry Metalic
80,000 miles
Heated leather seats
Magnex stainless steel exhaust
K&N induction kit
Cross drilled discs with green stuff pads. (Very good!!!!!)
Lowered approx 70mm on coil overs (no longer a 4x4 and what it should have looked like from the factory)

Spent loads on other bits aswell but its all worth it for the noise it makes and the looks. I drove it back from north Wales on xmas eve which was the best road trip i have had to date!

All the rest is origional which is best IMHO.

I have a full set of poly bushes and exhaust mounts to go on aswell when the weather is better.

Another VW ive owned cira 2000


1983 Golf 1.8gti
Koni adjustable suspension
1800 16v engine running 1800 8v gearbox
How i miss this car and i need another one!

Unlikely. It's an unconventional jacking point, but I seem to recall that the official tow bar bolts to something meaty round there so maybe it is on that.

There are 2 points on the rear chasis legs for axle stands.
