For all who responded to my tail of woe, here is the update...
After making arrangements on Saturday, today Monday) some nice people from a firm called Autoglass took my nice red Corrado away and returned it 3 hours later with a brand new sparkling windscreen Yippee - I can now drive safely when the sun is low in the sky!!! The only problem now is that the rest of the bodywork is looking distinctly shabby in comparison Btw - I now know why I have insurance (apart from the fact it's compulsory!). The cost of a replacement windscreen works out at about $650. All I paid was the excess (about $80 in your funny transatlantic currency) Mouse is once again a happy stress-free rodent ------------------ Regards Mouse |

Dear Mouse: Glad you got a new windshield, guy! Hell of a way to have to come by one, though! You're lucky you had insurance...that's quite a hit!
I understand fully about the "need to upgrade" because it looks shabby in comparison. |

What is a Corrado? Never heard of it. I know that a lot of cars outside of the U.S have Eoropean versions called different names. Is there an american equivelant, or is it unique to Scottland.
Anyways, glad to hear that it worked out well for you! ------------------ "The object of war is not to die for your country but to make the other bastard die for his." -General George Patton (1885-1945) |

A Corrado is the coupe version of the VW Golf (Rabbit?) Oh and they don't make them any more
