bibs 0 Posted June 8, 2006 Alright folks. I've always had a keen interest in buying a Corrado and now's the time I think. Currently drive a Lotus Esprit, Vectra V6 2.6 GSi, Heavily modified Saxo (disco on wheels, bought it for an ex!) and Bedford Rascal (A Team Van replica, as seen in this years Gumball Rally!) I think I want a VR6 as I've got a bit of a think for going fast. Any hints or tips would be appreciated as would links to relevant sites/topics etc. Ta :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bibs 0 Posted June 8, 2006 Brilliant. I must have a good look through the site and digest everything but at first read that seems exactly what I'm after, thanks :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick 0 Posted June 8, 2006 Currently drive a ... and Bedford Rascal (A Team Van replica, as seen in this years Gumball Rally!) AWESOME!! My mate has a bright yellow one, with chipmunk stickers on the back and a big ol' bull bar (currently for sale) Last week i picked my car up from a local garage, and there was a kawasaki green rascal, with the back lopped off, (assuming) a kawasaki motorbike engine strapped to the back with sports manifold, and exhaust etc. Sounded like death. :twisted: Welcome, and buy a G60.

Guest Posted June 8, 2006 wow, big list of cars there mate :) as said above, theres a buyers guide on this forum, to help you. whether you choose a VR or G60 is a matter of taste, but I prefer my VR personaly good luck mate, I'm sure if you ask nicely you'll get a drive in both :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nick 0 Posted June 8, 2006 A couple of tasty motors with £££!! number plates by the looks of things! Lovin the rascal... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bibs 0 Posted June 8, 2006 It's amazing! In the Gumball, there were $39,000,000 worth of cars, and we were the first ones pulled over by the fuzz in a 1988 Rascal worth less than £39! 3 points and £60 fine to add to the collection, gits! Oh, and that is a pair of 15" subs in the back! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bibs 0 Posted June 8, 2006 I run their fan club of 7,500 people. Been on stage a few times singing and am affectionately referred to as the ninth member of the band by Xain I'm good friends with them all and have been to almost 100 gigs, have a Gold Disc and all sorts of wonderful things. I organised the infamous 'Penis' rally in London last year which resulted in Burberry wanting to stop selling in the UK and the demise of the infamous 'Chavalier'! Wanna know anything about the GLC, http://www.glcforum.com is what you need innit or ask me. I am currently giving away signed bra's as seen in the video to 'Your Missus is a Nutter', a drumstick used on the Safe as F*ck album and just had 6 signed promo's won, plus we have forum only gigs which are amazing, 50p a ticket and a 3 hour set! I also, for a laugh run the worlds biggest Lotus Esprit forum and we're in the middle of organising the biggest ever met, over 180 people and over 100 cars going to the Lotus factory in early October which is going to be an amazing day :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Nick 0 Posted June 8, 2006 That shut me up. lol. Not wanting to digress from corrado's too much! Can i have some more info on the 3 hour 50p a ticket gigs?! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bibs 0 Posted June 8, 2006 We did a gig in the Bristol Fleece last May exclusively for members of the forum and there is going to be another one this summer. Sign up to the GLC forum and you'll hear about it when I get all the details :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
16vradge 0 Posted June 9, 2006 Nice one, my missus loves the glc, how can I go about getting a signed bra then? It's for her - honest! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bibs 0 Posted June 9, 2006 I'll be setting up the competition in the next few days. Basically it will be that you have to take a picture of yourself with a bra on your head (a al Weird Science and the Nutter video) and the funniest/strangest place/weirdest win the bras :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bibs 0 Posted June 28, 2006 Just a quick bump to say a huge thanks to M15 VW who took me for a nippy and exciting spin in her car this evening. What a great car too, looks amazing, sounds even better, lovely car, A+. A great gesture to a future owner too, above and beyond the call of duty :) Thanks again :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
