daves16v 1 Posted July 12, 2011 Popped into my local post office today for car tax, handed over my documents, the chap behind the counter looked through them and said "oooo very nice". Just what I needed as the car is now legal and ready. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted July 20, 2011 Had a meeting the other day, and we were all walking back to our cars and one of the women (her son was in my class last year) said 'Oh, so that's your car! Ollie's always talking about it!' Then one of the others said 'That's such a tarty car! Very nice though!' 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The_Dude 0 Posted August 15, 2011 Pulled up at a mate's wedding on Saturday to have some fella immediately walk over and start chatting about it. Think he said he was an admin on CCGB, his name was Sal and had the tag of C12ADO (or something like that, I then proceeded to get very drunk and forget). Crazy fool has 3 of the buggers! Nice to chat anyways. :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pat_McCrotch 0 Posted August 29, 2011 Parked up outside the front of a pub today. Heard some guy talking to his mate about it being a Scirocco! :snipersmile: Then one of the barmen came outside and asked to take a photo of it as he "likes to get a photo of all the decent cars that turn up on the weekend" :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
owen g60 10 Posted August 29, 2011 turned up for an interview for a new job. parked in between a nugget G60 and a Karman MK1 Golf. turns out the MD owned the MK1 and the interviewer owned the nugget. Needless to say they both commented that they had seen me turn up and made a good impression :cheers: Got a phone call about an hour after offering me the job at a higher salary than advertised :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mr Sands 0 Posted August 30, 2011 Brilliant! Could this be the first documented case of a Corrado MAKING its owner money, rather than costing?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Portent 0 Posted September 10, 2011 I've got the builders in doing some work on the house (father and son). The son sees me in the garage getting some plastic sheeting and spots the car... "Is that a Corrado? Looks lovely. Bet that's expensive. VR6 too" :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
P3rks 11 Posted September 13, 2011 got my first Chuftie last night! I was sat waiting for the g.friend to finish work when a guy drove past in a van, stopped, reversed back and indicated me to roll the window down.. Papped myself because I was sat on double yellows at the time.. then the guy goes: "is that a real G60!!!?" "yeah!" "I used to have one of those back in the 90's, what year is it?" "It's a early 91" "Is it for sale, yeah?" "I murmured a hmmm.. and indicated and unsure sign with my hand, maybe 3.5k-4k" "It's not standard though, it's pushing about 200-220bhp with other things.." The guys face dropped! He then pulled up, got out and had a look around the car, showed him the engine, he loved the Samco's! Wanted to hear it idle.. He took my number and told me he'll be in contact to offer me something for it.. He then told me to get off as my g.friend had turned up by this point and was looking bored.. As was his misses sat in his van.. He told me he was waiting outside to see/hear it drive off! he was well excited.. Like a little boy! I don't expect a phone call, not that I'd sell it without a real good offer anyway, I think he was over excited with seeing one and reminisced a little. Felt great though!
