Only just read this epic thread (over last 3 evenings with my mrs slagging me off for ignoring her), and have to congratulate you as everyone else has. Awesome stuff right from the start, so much better than the huge (not epic) threads on other forums with page after page of 'cracked me sump again' and 'I need air LOL' whatever. I do have vague memories of seeing it at inters 2010 and not being sure what to make of it!, didn't know anything about it then. Gutted not to have seen it this year (only there on the Sat, rubbish weather). I'll be looking out for it next year though, running spot on!?! Keep up the fantastic work, and the 'rado lights look bob on, even think I prefer them to rallye!
Hadn't seen your comment dub303, nice to know my car is putting relationships in jeopardy Looks like the end might be nigh for it though, probably won't have anywhere to keep it soon so there's a good chance it'll be for sale for quite a substantial amount, or broken and weighed in sometime in the next couple of months [:^(] [:^(]
I'll give you it's weigh in value. Or sell it to Danster, might really improve his life having some 16v going on.
Yep, unfortunately! I won't divulge the full details just yet Only way to keep it is if I find myself a secure lockup I can leave it in for some serious amount of time...
Disappointed to hear it might be broken! Some people might say it's messy, but twin engined on bike carbs is good engineering in my eyes. I'm struggling with one engine. Another thing, raddo lights... Your running a corrado grill, right?
Rallye grille, 'rado lights. How do you value a car like this? I know what it's worth in bits but how do you value the complete car with the work done?
You can't 'value it' because it's so niche. Add up the parts and see where you get to. Trouble with any specialised toy is it's worth parts unless someone wants a twin engined car now.
Tbf I did consider buying that yellow Corrado already kitted out for a rear engine from the guy on here, so I guess the best course of action would be to break it and see if anyone wants the shell, win win that way... Right, anyone see anything they fancy? 2 sets of all the best 16v upgrade stuff up for grabs! Gonna break my heart but it's gotta go!
I'd really rather keep it believe me but I can't see anyone paying proper money for it... + the 2500 worth of bits on/in it
