Bowesey 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Hi, I thought I'd best introduce myself. My name is Tom and I'm an alc.... oh hang on. Wrong forum! (sorry, couldn't resist). :oops: I'm 24, living in St Albans and working in Barnet. I finally bought a Corrado last month, having wanted one since before I could drive. I've bought myself an 'L' Reg Aqua Blue Pearlescent VR6. Love the drive, just need to sort out a couple of problems first (hopefully before it bankrupts me). Car history reads (1) 'F' Reg 1.0 Austin Metro - stolen (2) 'M' Reg (Mk3) 1.8 Golf - written off (3) 'W' Reg 1.2 Fiat Punto - sold (4) C - new baby. I'm generally a fairly useless forum member as I barely get a chance to visit and post, although I'll try my best. I'll see about adding a pic or two of the car at some point.

Goldie 2 Posted January 10, 2007 Welcome, get some photos up of your new baby. Few problems is what Corrado ownership is all about. Enjoy.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A1 VR6 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Welcome and just wondered if you bought the car from a guy called Andy who lives in the St. Albans area? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bowesey 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Welcome and just wondered if you bought the car from a guy called Andy who lives in the St. Albans area? Aye, I did just that. He lives about 5 minutes away. It was really the choice between this one and a black VR6 in Barnet but the colour swayed me. Thanks for the welcomes. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
smee 0 Posted January 10, 2007 Aqua blue is one of the nicest colours (he says with no bias whatsoever) :-P Welcome to the forum, nice to see a steady stream of new C owners, gets a bit scary when there seem to be so many being broken. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A1 VR6 0 Posted January 11, 2007 That car was always really tidy and well maintained - wouldn't have thought there's to much wrong knowing Andy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
