Been lucky so far, a weekend is the longest I've been without driving it (and that was only because I didn't need to use it)

 

wouldn't fancy being without it for months at a time like others have

Whats funniest is when you drive a slow car instead of your Rado for a while, you forget what its like driving a quick car.

 

Driving the girlfriends Ford Ka to Cornwall and back you sort of used to way it drives.. then I got back and hopped into the Rado to go get some shopping and it sort of floored me a bit when I gave it some welly! :D

Spot on Jim. Have often driven the missus' Ka and then had to readjust to the 'rado! Also spent ten lovely days in France in the summer but driving a 1.2 Fiesta. Willing little go-kart in its own way, quite nicely torquey at low revs, but I missed the Corrado so much. Longest I've gone without even seeing it in the time I've owned it.

 

I kinda like driving other cars though, since it makes me realise just how wonderful the 'rado is when I get back in. Also, having a 25 mile commute to school which is a mixture of motorway and some lovely winding A roads is a pleasure, not a chore, when you own a Corrado. Yes, it puts miles on, but they're good miles, since I savour the drive every day.

I went for 20 YEAR without driving a corrado and now i finally have a VR6 its bloody awesome :lol: but since i have owned it i went a week without driving it when i went on holiday and that wasnt very nice, but i had some good driving sessions when i got back :D

I took 18 months away from the C when I went travelling last year, and sadly I pined after it quite alot, despite being on the other side of the world, and surrounded by half naked beauties :oops:

I'm going to have to be without mine for a week in just over a weeks time - as off to Shanghai on business!

ummm... I spent 8 months without driving J-Dub when I rebuilt her engine, I then spent 3 months without her while waiting for the insurance to pay after she was written off... I then spent over a month without H-YYU when I swapped the engine over, and another 2 months when the head bolt thread was found to have stripped and I'm currently without her again due to a random running fault meaning I can't use her at the moment... currently 3 months off the road and looking like she's not going to see much movement until late January at the earliest due to getting married... :|

 

Miss it like crazy, can't wait to get her fixed and back on the road to give it some serious stick (and probably get her re-mapped again now she'll be fuelling properly! :oops: ) although I am enjoying my Passat TDI and the 45MPG average I get! :lol:
