£390... thats what I pay for my 12,000 miles a year fully comp now...!!! looks like the rado will be getting garaged, cant afford that...!!! :(

very nice mate... keep us informed on how the turbo conversion is doing...!! liking those wheels.... :)

i'm getting another car soon so the rado will have to come off the road if i cant find a good policy, blue_joe how does having 2 policys work with your no claims?

fantastic mate.... nice to hear she is behaving herself!!!! :)

she sound lovely!! glad it all worked out for you!!! hope this means you'll make it to a few of the events in summer to show her off...! :)

jeezo, thats horrible.... are you ok...? I guess that means you passed your test caroline...! what happened to getting a polo halequin??? :) seriously tho, i wanna cry when i look at those pics, such a shame.... :cry:

oh no.... so sorry to hear that.... :(

spotted today a dark grey J-reg heading the other way in Farnborough... couldnt see what flavour of rado it was, tho it was rather dirty... tut tut...!!! spotted last night silver vr6 N-reg standard height on Borbet C look-a-likeys parked outside some flats on Alexandra Road in Farnborough (again).... theres loads of C's round here.....!!! Farnborough is the Corrado Spotting capital of Britian!!! :)

hee hee.... I do accept the fact that the VR will get away eventually, but we'll put up a bloomin good fight to stop it happening too quickly...!!! j4m3s buy a 2ltr and stick a KR cam in it, and dont let anyone ever slag off valvers for not being quick enough....!!! :)

lol!! what do you mean you were surprised!!!? i told you she was quick....!!! :wink:

Red K*** LOU in Farnham, g60 on bbs's and with a towbar... Parked up in a street near the station, we were dropping off a freind who lives in that street... she totally didnt get why we both got excited at seeing this C.... lol!!! :lol:

welcome aboard... you planning to add a rado to your Dub collection anytime soon then...?

(Posted by gradeAfailure :oops:) I've got the Alpine 9831R in mine and SQ is superb... Gonna be upgrading it for a newer Alpine tho, just so it matches when i change my illumination! :lol: Kev, can the 9853 change the illumination of the small buttons to anything other than green or amber?

yeah, have always considered the pug diesel engines to be some of the best... i'm just a bit of a badge whore and dont know if i could drive a pug... :oops:

cheers for the advice guys.... have seen a Audi 80 vr6 Auto belonging to someone on here that i am really interested in... poor rado isgoing to get put away in the garage for a while.... boooo..... :(

lol... need to keep the fuel bill down, hence the TDi idea... would love another 4x4... not a huge fan of the mk1 shoguns or old Land Rovers so it would have to be a Cherokee, pretty reliable, decent economy and can tow well above the weight I would need it too.... tbh tho i think it'll be a car rather than a 4x4 just now.... my friends 406 tdi can pull her box and two ponies comfortably... its just the thought of driving a pug that puts me off..... :)

the saloon would do... just need a big boot to keep saddles and stuff in...!!! hmmmm..... a search on ebay appears to be in order..... :)

ooohhh.... that A4 is local.... have seen a few of the B4 Passat TDi Estate...?

good idea but way too expensive!!! too buy something like that i would need to sell the rado..... and thats not happening...!!!

.... before anyone asks the C is staying, she is just gonna get a holiday for a few months.... (or a limited milage policy if i can afford it.... :) ) what i really need just now is something big and powerful enough to tow a horsebox weighing roughly 1.5 tonne comfortably enough and costing less than a grand.... any ideas guys.....? ideally i want a Jeep Cherokee again if i can find one in my price range (tho i might stretch it a bit for one of them....) have had a few other suggestions, Mondeo turbo diesel, 406 turbo diesel, Dhiatsu fourtrack, but quite frankly the thought of driving one of them whilst i have a C sitting redundant on driveway would make me cry..... :( any suggestions for something thats a little bit less yuck but still practical...? cheeeeeeeeeers!!!!

i struggle to get the C down the road to te farm where the horses are... the road has a big drop on the way in that you have to negotiate at an angle and its got loads of mucky potholes that you cant avoid on the way down, i find its best not to do it to slowly or it feels worse!! and to add insult to injury the road is really mucky and the car end up filthy...!!! grrrrr!!!! thats all really tho... have learned which car parks etc are rado friendly and tend to stick to them....

hoping to get one of these too... looks good!!!

great idea.... will save me trawling through the search for some ideas on how to get some more horses out my valver.... :D look forward to reading it...

last fri (13th) black N reg C on Reading Road in Farnborough as i was driving home at 4.50-ish... i flashed but think it was too late and you didnt see.... sun morning in B&Q car park in Farnborough, dragon green VR, pulled out and sat right behind me but fellow girlie driver some how seemed to miss my bright red rado and us flashing lights, waving etc.... nice c tho... :)

yup - thats the best bit!!! i always do the racing away from the barrier and redlining in every gear thing :oops: had a MK3 VR try it on from the toll barrier - hed been tailing me at 125 all the way there - the last time i came through it, it was close but i just got in front... best bit was my window was still down from when i had paid the toll and all i could hear was the vr noise over the roar of my engine.... we both were well over 130 when he had to pull in behind me and get out of the way of slower traffic... fun at the time but if the cops had been near they would just have taken my keys off me then and there.... :wink: :lol:
