Red C in Shrewsbury, near Morrisons, possibly the VRT (at least the badge says so) I've seen a few times in town. Got a wave.

Just spent a week in Cornwall - based in Padstow, drove all around Cornwall right down to The Lizard, up to Newquay and back home again - must have covered 600+ miles all told and didn't see a single sodding Corrado!!

 

No way too, me & the missus did pritty much the same thing!! 8) Padstow, along the coast stopping off at various places ending up in Carlyon Bay, Nr St Austell. Tenting it, but were in the Passssat (could not fit all my missus kit in the VR) :( . Seafood rest is dam good too!!!! :D

Blackberry (i think) 16V yesterday, redbridge roundabout... Was side by side with me, driver didnt seem too friendly, i tried waving, he weren't interested lol.

 

I regularly see that guy near the roundabout or around Commercial Road in Southampton... he's never waved nor acknowledged me yet either. Obviously driving a C under duress :cuckoo:

...and folk who entirely lack the appreciation for what they're driving. I guess I just associate the C with a crowd who have bought it for it's handling, general automotive press kudos, modern classic status and relative uniqueness on roads full of 'bland'. Just another GTi or R32 it is not (with apols. to the R32 set amongst us).

Spotted a very nice looking burgundy [i think] Corrado on the A666 on my way to Bolton last evening around 6.30pm to get an alarm fitted. Could not quite focus on the badge, as my rear view had blurred it out due to it vibrating. But was lowered on some rims, nice stainless & tinted top half rears. I was in my [standard….for now] Red VR. He very kindly let me pull out in front as we exchanged plenty of waves & flashes! :wave:

 

Nice C mate!! 8) Anyone on here? :salute:

I think i saw Easypops last week - see you've bought a VR6? Seen you mention it with the ad for your 16v on ScottishVAG.

 

Seen (and heard) you boot it along Mosspark Blvd...evening time, about 6/7pm or so cant remember the day. Sounded sweet!

 

Welcome to the VR group - enjoying it so far?
