amdmad 0 Posted September 4, 2006 Most who insult corrado, are ignorant of cars but think they know it all. They should be banned from driving Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

colinstubbs 0 Posted September 5, 2006 My wife complains about how low and firm the suspension is (only 40mmdrop) and the difficulty getting in and out, and then came home going on about a ride in a mates Lotus Exige, how low and exilirating it was and how it stuck to the road and she thought she was gonna die going round the bends. I said to her that's really funny when she winges about me going round roundabouts 'too fast', she went on to make some clearly unconnected remark about me slagging of crap drivers and how much it annoys her!!! I ask you, WTF is that all about?!! :roll: Is it a VR6, G60, 2.0, oh only 1800?! A what, was that a limited edition? I always say, "VW Corrado" instead of just "Corrado" to try and reduce the chances of the blank look!!!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bendy 0 Posted November 3, 2006 door to door sales girl at my door said ooo nice corrado, then said " rover made them didnt they?" ahhh got off to such a good start as well!!! :roll: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackcat 0 Posted November 3, 2006 same as everyone else really... 'is that the back to the future car?' chips away people called it a corolla (needless to say I didn't use them) complete blank looks when I tell people I have a corrado 'when are you going to buy a new/better car?' people call it a scirocco all the time but I don't really mind that, at least they know it's a VW!! But the thing that winds me up the most is people calling it black when it is dark burgundy :? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted November 3, 2006 My dad still calls mine a scirocco as well as my gf's dad. I also hate it when people ask what car i have because i know they will just look blank :mad: although i was totally shocked one day when a lady from the office near mine was talking to me and asked what car i am getting, i said "you wont know it but its a vw corrado vr6" and she said "Brilliant cars, i hope you are getting a blackberry one they are the best!" i was gobsmacked :shock: I also get told its a ladies car because its purple and i should also buy some tyres that fit (now i have my Brocks on). And when i first got it my mum kept saying "But its so old, why dont you buy something new like a fiesta or a clio" errr no thanks :lol: Oh and my mate is always calling it either a corradA or coraldo etc when will they learn :( Its all good fun though :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
