From the DVLA website: "Tip of the Day Slow down Slow down - driving at high speeds significantly increases fuel consumption. " Ha ha, tell me about it! I just spent £51 in fuel on a 270 mile journey. :twisted: Must...slow...down!

I love my C. Her name is Lucille (honestly; not my idea though!!! :oops: ). Suppose I really do love Lucy then! (well done Louie Lungbubble for the reference!) My little punto used to get me from St Albans to Newcastle for about £30. I went up this weekend and it cost £52! for the journey up :shock: Must... slow...down. I love her so much that I'm getting quotes for sorting out the bodywork and am going to buy her some new shoes (T1-Rs). I also bought the old girl her jewellery back (a shiny new VR6 badge. I'm sure that there should be one on the back but there isn't). Okay... must stop sounding like a freak :nuts:

I started reading that thread at about 1.30. My lunch hour has now been going for 2 1/4 hours. I've just had to add it to my favourites to finish tomorrow so that I can actually get some work done.

Aye, I did just that. He lives about 5 minutes away. It was really the choice between this one and a black VR6 in Barnet but the colour swayed me. Thanks for the welcomes.

Hi, I thought I'd best introduce myself. My name is Tom and I'm an alc.... oh hang on. Wrong forum! (sorry, couldn't resist). :oops: I'm 24, living in St Albans and working in Barnet. I finally bought a Corrado last month, having wanted one since before I could drive. I've bought myself an 'L' Reg Aqua Blue Pearlescent VR6. Love the drive, just need to sort out a couple of problems first (hopefully before it bankrupts me). Car history reads (1) 'F' Reg 1.0 Austin Metro - stolen (2) 'M' Reg (Mk3) 1.8 Golf - written off (3) 'W' Reg 1.2 Fiat Punto - sold (4) C - new baby. I'm generally a fairly useless forum member as I barely get a chance to visit and post, although I'll try my best. I'll see about adding a pic or two of the car at some point. Tom
