jimborae 0 Posted September 27, 2003 Well I went today and the turn out wasn't great, apparently everybobies go'in tomorrow. But it was good meeting mark16V, hello mate! And some of the guys from CCGB, my cheque is in the post guys :). I also met one of the previous owners of my car :) and found out how much he sold it to the guy I bought it off!! :( I also came away with a cat bypass pipe & and an uprated lighting loom, plus got to see my godparents as they live 4 miles from Billing Aquadrome. All in all a good day, shame I cant make it 2morrow. Regards Jim. ps I'll post piccies tomorrow. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
markTTC 0 Posted September 28, 2003 But it was good meeting mark16V Nice to meet you too Jim. It's always nice to put faces and cars to names on the forum. I know you feel a bit miffed about paying too much for your G60, but from what I could see you still got a really nice example there for the price you paid. I agree, the turnout was poor on Saturday, but it was still definetely worth turning up for - only £6 entry was a bonus. :D I'll post pics later too. Cheers Mark Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Tom B 0 Posted September 28, 2003 Very good turnout today! There was a very nice Rado on TT Competition wheels...I wish I hadn't put mine in storage now! endor77, you know Steve Cox don't you? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jimborae 0 Posted September 28, 2003 Mark, I'm not that miffed really about the price I paid as its worth to me what I paid for it in my opinion. It just woud have been nice to have got it for what the previous owner paid for it. ;) Got the lighting loom fitted have to wait till dark to see if theres an improvement. I also forgot to mention that while buying the cat bypass pipe from Motex I was talking to the owner and he told me about trying to negotiate a 10 or 15% discount for CCGB members. So I said what about Corrado Forum members, his reply was "who"? So I told him about the site and the number of members we have and gave him the site address, he seemed quite up for it. So Mods it might be an idea to contact him, pm me if you need his details. Regards Jim Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimborae 0 Posted September 28, 2003 Mmmmmmmmmmmmm sounds more like a rival club every passing day :roll: IMHO not at all, this is a forum not a club and I think provides a different service & a different flavour on owning a C. ;) On a different topic, the lighting loom I got from Trimsport at E38 works a treat. I can now see where I'm going at night :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Banana Man 0 Posted September 28, 2003 Just got back from the show I went for the whole weekend I have to agree that the turnout wasn't great on saturday but today made up for it, the field was rammed with cars today. As usual it was an eventful weekend yes the car broke again on the way up to the show first of all I heard a big bang and a thud from the engine bay and then I saw the rather nasty dent in the bonnet with bits of paint flying over the windscreen, at first I thought it was probably going to be the front engine mount again but when I opened the bonnet I was quite suprised in fact what had happened was that the cooling fan for the alternator you know the one that sits behind the alt pulley decided to explode into 3 bits which then hit the bonnet and caused the damage. I didn't get to take a photo of it yet coz my digi cam decided to run out of battery power still I'm sure you will see the damage as quite a few people took some nice photo's of it through out the weekend. I'm still sufferering from the dodgy chicken kebab I had from the chippie on site and I'm pretty sure it wasn't chicken either more like a stray cat or dog or some local wildlife they picked off of the road at least I wasn't the only one suffering this morning ay Daz :D It was good to meet a few more people from the forum and get some more inspiration for the banana :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bally 0 Posted September 29, 2003 I was there y'day too.. was good to see a few peeps, although wished I could have stayed.. highlight of the show for me was driving up with the westside crew, boy they are nutters, racing down the A43 was :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
