Craig 0 Posted March 25, 2006 came back to my c earlier parked in town to see quite a nice 16v next to it! nice i thought! hada little lookie then some guys came over shouting a bit! the driver was ok but his m8 clenched fists said ' i was guna hit you no matter what!' even after i said thats my g60 parked there! what an asshole! said to the driver have you been on the corrado forum, he said which one! i was like THE forum! didnt seem bothered one bit! thats the first c owner who's been a knob! doesn't deserve the pleasure of owning the car! oh well, i started up the g60 and felt smug as i revved up the charger :) oh that sound!

VR6 0 Posted March 25, 2006 I think it's just going to be on the increase unfortunately :( The cars are getting pretty cheap to get hold of nowadays so there's inevitably going to some chavy owners. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Valerian 0 Posted March 25, 2006 There are a lot of C owners out there that unfortunately do share the passion for the car but are not very sociable about the matter. I've met and spoke to quite a few in this area that have never heard of the corrado.net and give me quite odd looks when i ask them if they would be interested in participating in any of the meets or joining the forum. Mind you ....it can be quite a worry sometimes if you return to your car to find someone peering through the windows etc...lol Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted March 25, 2006 :( That's not very nice. He'll probably have written it off within the month though :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

woody 0 Posted March 25, 2006 It a race track in bournemouth on a friday and sat night, Mind you the town centre they have put loads of sleaping policemen, I cant even get my car into certain point of town with the RS2 bumper, I think I should be able to claim for a council tax rebate of something.

Bojmobile 0 Posted March 25, 2006 That's crap - there's a guy I see locally who has a Corrado but never seems to acknowledge me. Recently I was out with some mates and these girls joined us and started talking about cars. One of them said she had a Golf and the other said she had a Polo - I said I had a Volkswagen too. Girl with the Polo says "Yeah it's REALLY old isn't it? I've seen you drvivng about in it - it's an old blue thing isn't it?" :mad: to which I replied "yeah it is a classic now and I find that the 200bhp - heated leather etc. makes up for it being a wee bit older!" I guess some folk just don't appreciate how amazing the Corrado is! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Craig 0 Posted March 25, 2006 Bojmobile, ha ha, quality. a lot of people dont realise how much kit they come with. not every cars have electric everything, height adjustable seats/ steerring wheel etc! albeit it doesn't all work...but thats not the point, its still there :) if i ever see him again ill know not to waste my effort by giving a wave! ill just use it for the right foot instead :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gaz the geezer 0 Posted March 25, 2006 Bojmobile, :) you should know by now that only a small minority of girl`s appreciate the corrado, generally speaking, if it dont fit on the foot or hang off the shoulder then it`s off the radar mate...dont take it heart :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Critical_Mass 10 Posted March 25, 2006 On the contrary gaz, my gf is a huge veedub fan. She'd kill me if i got rid of the C. She loves it. Sometimes a bit too much though when she starts referring to it like its a person, male at that. Bless her, with her lil 1.0L Lupo SE. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

davebirl 0 Posted March 26, 2006 Corrado drivers here in Ireland are very friendly, I think I actually know most of them on first name basis now since buying my first Corrado 5 years ago.............. And of course we always flash the lights at each other in traffic. :) girlfriend has told me many times never to sell my Rado cos she couldn't put up with me moaning about it forever like the time I sold my MK1 GTI.
