Well on the theme of Dr's, I've had the plastic surgeon out to come have a look at the purple beast
As a few of you know I am a bit critical of things in general, so after I walked around it and pointed out every blemish I can find on the old girl he was a bit bemused (as its my L reg daily) but after a bit of haggling we settled on £500
That would make the car mint!!!!
As in without fault at all
Just have to find the £500. Does anyone want to buy some wheels??

Whatcha mean??
You know how picky I am though, I'd find fault with a new car.
Can't wait for it to be done, just hope that it's a good job or i'll be gutted, and basically give the car away

Well it's been a while for an update
A few of you will know what I have been Upto
Originally purple Corrado was having a few issues, which lead me to believe the head was buggered. Turned out that the header tank return was blocked and I had an air lock behind my thermostat.
Due to these intermittent problems untill I could spend the time under the car to sort them I did what most of you would expect of me and bought another car and some wheels lol
This little beaut was the cleanest little mk2 I have seen and served me very well, never missin a beat!!!
Coilovers were ordered, but then never arrived, so a few emails to paypal and the money was back in my account.
In the mean time I messed around with a dew sets of my wheels. Compomotive magnesiums have been split, and are currently being painted. Lips were repolished by Cecil.
Were previously looking like this
And now look like this
But shhh don't tell anyone this, who knows which car they will end up on (maybe the mk2 though)
While all this was going on I had a little play with the wheels that live in the Purple Corrado
Before we were sitting a very sensible 7.5J and et25
However this happened
Oooohhhh shiny radinox
Goosnesss!!!!!
3" lips were the order of the day, with the wheels quickly rebuilt
However there was a slight miscalculation of size, (I thought the wheels were originally et32) so we ended up with Et 6 9J.
A trip down the tyre place meant that fitting a 195/40 wasn't going to happen, so 195/45's were popped on instead
So we went from
To

Brown Corrado is still away : ( not sure I will ever get it back
But the day it went over to the DR's it looked like this
Which has been seen on a couple of blogs and on some
American forums (not me who posted it)
So least it is admired, even if it has disappeared for the moment

Theonger the mk2 is around the more likely it is that something will be done to it!!
Am thinking of getting the lowering stick out and adding some girth
Can't shake the idea of wide RM's and a roof rack to take the little bugger surfing this summer

its not a caddy, Ol
like you say, shame the one i sent you the link on is so far away and needs a bit of work
and the only thing wrong(IMO) with the mk2 is its a more-door.

It is a good un, but like you say no caddy, really would love one, but can't justify the raddos and a caddy (as I'm supposed to be saving).
Sure that a healthy drop and some RM's or the Compo's will make the mk2 look pretty though.
Might however need a bit of arch work to get the 8.5 and 9's on it - and then there is the lack of PS which means I couldnt use it daily - but thats what the purple raddo is for
