forgot how fast it was not driven it properly for about 6months.
Lasted about 15mins then the bonnet cable broke AGAIN, was a nightmare the 1st time, i had to smash my way through the front grill
Looking at buying this beauty, i have quite a few of the things they make for corrado already and really good stuff, just a bit expensive

i hate to think how many times the bonnet has been opened after all those years.
silly thing is, i bought all the complete cable and fixings last time and did everything but 1 little bracket and its that bracket that broke.
i actually have a new one already, but fancy buying the upgrade

There's a few nice corrados up this way. A guy on Scottish vag is restoring a nice storm edition one. There's one in this months golf+ mag running a turbo'd VR6.
