Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 3, 2008 Any Tom, Dick & Harry can get hold of tools but it's about having ze skillz to do it properly cheedik..... :cuckoo: These amazing Rado's your on about, any build threads on them mate? Get a link up on the build threads and their appreciation society will follow........ Will that please you boss? :salute: :lol: Welcome sir 8) I don't have the time or inclination to trawl through the gallery threads for the purpose of settling a dispute with you, but have a browse through our Members Gallery at your own leisure and bask in the delights of many tasty vehicles, such as:- CoxyLaaaad PhatVR6 JIMMI CrazyDave CorradoVR6 NOS No offense to anyone who I've left out, but they spring to mind first as well engineered projects, all done by the owners. And if you like the showey stuff, there is of course:- A20Lee StormChargedVR6 etc Plus of course there's the rear engined 24v turbo corrado that Schimmel built etc. Loads of nice cars.....but they're not standing on a stage, bigging themselves up with a megaphone. When was discretion and modesty banned in the scene then? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
herisites 0 Posted October 3, 2008 Anyone can have an amazing show car if they hand over their cheque book to a tuning/styling company like most people who actually win prizes do. Doing it yourself is a different story. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted October 3, 2008 OK. I have been quietly watching this thread after someone pointed me in the direction of it and I have to say how dissapointed I am. This forum was always a great place for me to discuss my love for Corrados and the mods/conversions I did to mine and other peoples cars. I built the Corrado for me. Yes I took it to shows for people to see what I had done as I was proud of it, but I drove it every single day too and from work and used it as a car. It was not built as a "show car" it just got recognition at a show when I finished it and I was asked to have a mag feature done on it. Kev - I have to say I am the most dissapointed with your responses as I have always been impressed with what you have done/had done to your car and you always talked to me on a level at meets etc.. Why you seem to be sighting me as some sort of glory hunter or something I do not understand, as anyone who knows me will know I am not like that. Vik is a freind of mine as I was pleased when he bought the car as I know it will be well looked after and used as it should be. What he does with it is up to him, if he wants to show it, rally it, track it whatever I don't mind as long as its being used for what it is. A car!

Likewise and it's unfortunate this thread got out of hand in the way it has. All I said at the beginning was why is there a new thread every time your old car changes hands? I wasn't expecting so much negativity to result from that. I can only apologise as I have no problem with you or your old car. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The_Dude 0 Posted October 3, 2008 I think its cos he lives in Germany. Anyway, I wasn't having a go at Jay or his car, its a top quality machine, the work he did all by himself for himself and it was to a very high standard and the resulting fame was a by-product - the problem I have is like Rob said, when people throw their credit cards at a car just so they have something to show off. Not having the skills is one thing, but modding to just impress is another. Which is why I'm happy to see Vik is gonna do with it what he wants and screw everyone else. And now I'll shut my big, foot containing mouth and throw my shovel away. :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Posted October 3, 2008 Hmmm, guess the lifetime ban didn't register in his brain. If he has one. What I find funny is the amount of time, money and effort Kev has put into his car, but he doesn't go running off to the shows or mags trying to show it off or have a massive build thread, so therefore he knows nothing in your eyes. Some people aren't interested in that. Oh, and I'm guessing its not politik to call a mod Cheesedik either...:lol: Whether I was banned or not, what the fu*k has got to do with you? :wave: Once you've got your tongue out of Kev's batty-hole yeh, answer this question boss: If someone builds a decent/quick car yeh and they don't brag about it on the Forums or go running off to the shows or mags right..... does that give that person the wright to have PMT over someone elses creation?? :salute: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Leonard 0 Posted October 3, 2008 Yeah reason I like this forum is the lack of confrontation. You can say its a little boring sometimes yes, but life is too short to have a slinging match sat behind a key board about something that doesnt really matter.

boost monkey 0 Posted October 3, 2008 Just want to add: I have no issues with Mr. Renshaw - never met him and meant no personal slight if my posts seemed as such:salute: I have no issues with the new owner, Vick: welcome to the party! :nuts: I don't regard the car in question as a "show car" and even less a "chequebooked" car; I just am drawn to the engineering aspectmore than the cosmetic / interior mods :|, which are a great read :cheers: Now then, let's all hug, get some Cocoa and watch the sound of music :bonk: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
