    That's part reason I still own this bloody thing lol, because everyone who gets rid of a Corrado says they wish they hadn't! Thanks mate.

    Fitted some polished stainless petrol tank straps with new stainless bolts/washers, also painted the bracket that holds two of them together. Crap pic fitted as I had to rush back to work!

    I managed a couple shots of the boot build from inside today. Still to tidy gauge wiring (Red box in pic) and also power etc.

    Nice easy access to everything though by either folding both seats or just one at each side.

    Well, I thought I'd go for some 'Vw' center cap stickers rather than the 'Borbet' stickers. Look really good in person, could only manage crap pics though as I fitted in between work.

    Too kind Mat, too kind mate, but glad you like it! Even I'm starting to now lol. Nah, loving it lately :thumbup:

    Fitted some new stainless screws and speed clips in the fog light/indicator housings.

    Hi Riley, been away from the forum for a year or two, great to see this looking so nice, love all the little touches with the dash etc. To save me reading through a gaziilion posts, what happened with the running problems you had? I recall you replaced just about every sensor etc on the engine but it still wouldn't run properly. . .

    How do mate :thumbup: Beleieve it or not the issue just sort of disappeared after having had it off the road for a while, but then I did replace absolutely everything as you say, problem is, I'm not actually sure what the bloody hell caused it lol

    So recently I:
    Emptied gearbox oil and replaced with redline mt90.
    Removed knackered tint from rear window.
    Adjusted/tweaked new power steering belt, no more slipping.

    And just for the crack I've ordered a 65mm pully :o Should be OK with the red tops, 3.5bar FPR and SNS 5.5 chip, and It'll be interesting to see the resulting fueling via the wideband...

    May be going to Awesome GTI rolling road meet on 23rd Feb if anyone else is popping along:thumbup:
    Won't be going on the rollers this time though I don't think.

    Neil.

    Lads...Few small bits I'm in need of if anyone can help?

    Two G60 air box tops/lids.
    A good late style drivers door handle (Recently bought pass side for 24 inc)
    And I still need a late style LO41 Gloss black front bumper.

    Possibly need a supercharger as well, just so I can run one to service/rebuild mine.
