Corrado Spotting! Was it you?

Recommended Posts

Spotted awigman at Coventry Train Station this evening (about 8 / 8.30?). Was sitting in the Shimla Spice eating a curry and my mate said "Is that a Corrado outside?" - sure enough I knew it'd be someone I knew :D

 

Was picking the wife up! What is Shimla Spice like? I pass it every day and keep meaning to go in, but in my opinion you cant beat Castle Balti in warwick!

Meh.. not very good to be honest. If you've found a balti you like, I'd stick to it. My favourite is Bilash in Kenilworth - didn't rate Shimla Spice anywhere near as well AND it was way more expensive.

aha nice. Also any extra is always good, put your results up when done, intrested to know.

 

What was needed for the 2l bottom end, my mate bought a mk2 once with a 2l bottom end also had a fair bit more but was a nice motor appart from it popped its clogs after being taken round the ring a few times.... aha.

 

I want my car aster but am not sure what to do, seen turbo kits for like £500 but apparently their crap ..... but would be nice as its extra power, aything which will not break as soon as i put it on would be nice but saying that this is a vw we are talking about.

Likewise i didnt expect to see another corrado coming toward me, id literally just overtaken a couple of cars and was winding the charger down as i past you hehe. As for the plate that was because i removed it whilst at Edition38 and havent got around to putting it back on, it actually fits perfectly between the edge of the windscreen and the rear view mirror and plod hasnt given me any grief over it.

 

I know about the dubpound lot, they have a meet in the forest and we invited some of them along to the Mk2 Golf owners club meet at the Toby Carvery at Over but some of them got a bit funny about it - club politics :shrug:

Very likely! She's doing Primary Education and got 2 more years of it, next time I'm gonna be up I'll drop you a PM fella,

 

Already got 1 set of parking tickets from "Parking Eye"... robbing bastards! Although, they keep sending you nice pictures of your car if you don't pay, which is kinda nice...
