Yandards 0 Posted August 14, 2012 It's looking suspicious... EDIT: Ah, just read Goldies thread. End of an era :( Again.. Hope you don't get the urge again this time Gareth and it has gone to a very good home (1st refusal if he sells it again perhaps?) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted August 14, 2012 Certainly is an end of an era :( However, as Yan says, it's gone to a good home- I'm sure Michael will cherish it! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RedRado 0 Posted August 17, 2012 Good luck with pastures new Gareth - remember there's no substitute for cubes even if you are trying to be 'sensible'! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted August 18, 2012 As you know you're one of the reasons I got back into Rado ownership and it's a shame to see you leave, but I have a feeling you will be back.... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted August 21, 2012 (edited) As many will realise I have now sold my Corrado. I have stayed off the forum for a few days whilst taking the time to come to terms with my decision. I can't go into the whys and wherefores but suffice to say that I have thoroughly enjoyed my Corrado, it has been a delight to own and bar a sticking thermostat (replaced) and sticking rear caliper (upgraded to later spec Golf MK4) it has been incredibly reliable and trouble free. I'm delighted that the car has found a home with a true enthusiast (with a lovely Storm amongst his previous cars) and i'm sure Michael will cherish and enjoy the car, I hope to watch his ownership through the forum and with any luck see it again at some shows in the future. Corrado ownership has been an abolute pleasure made all the more enjoyable due to the helpful, knowledgable and charming people of the Corrado Forum and CCGB, thankyou all. LONG LIVE THE VW CORRADO!
