Got my aerial today, which is now on the car.
It's tiny compared to the standard one

Mine arrived as well
Just waiting for my wife to get home so as I can try it. Don't think it suits the Corrado.

Makes the standard one look like it came off the back of a bumper car

It's certainly a little different
The only thing about it is the base of it is a little wider than the standard one, so it doesn't sit quite as nice.

i'm glad you noticed that, mine is like that too, bothered me at first - i got mine this morning too.
there was some dirt on the inside of the base of mine, i couldnt be suprised if he's out nicking em off cars, or he works for honda or something and taking them off cars lol

Funnily enough Nick, I said exactly the same thing to my mate at work, it certainly doesn't look brand new anyway.
Still for a fiver, who cares

Pictures of my Enfig S2000 aerial, taken not long after I got mine last June:
FYI, and to compare if you want to. Can take a pic tomorrow in better light if you really want!
Looks so much better than the Richbrook "anti-theft" aerial I used to have before it (which I sold off for a tenner)

fitted mine a 5.45pm today, it looks sweet. Yes i was a bit bothered about the bottom of the aerial being a bit bigger than the standard one, but who is going to know. (shhh. lets keep it to ourselves)
I think that selotape must have been 18 carat plated.

The envelope made me laugh, must have been about 15-16 inches long, folded in half because of how small the aerial is
Has anyone got a pic of theirs from e-bay on the car?
