Spotted it too in Maison Blanc Camping. I think I've seen it there a couple of years now. I think it's a father and son team doing the annual pilgrimage

Hello! That was meeeeeeeeeee :D I was attempting to get from Edition 38 to a meet in Surrey... took a while! Hope you had a good day at the Moto GP? I'd spotted you when I was a bit further back and I was willing my lane to move faster so I could catch up and give you a wave!!

 

I also spotted a green C patiently waiting on the A43 but he was south of Silverstone and northbound. I had escaped the car park by this point and had a completely clear road ahead but I saw him watch me go by so I made sure I waved at him too!

 

As well as these two, I saw an M reg blackberry valver on the ring road in Basingstoke just before leaving for the show on Friday. It's very rare that I see a Corrado in Basingstoke, but especially not a blackberry! They looked as surprised to see me as I did them!

 

I saw lots of Corrados at the show and was lucky enough to meet 3 forum members and chat to them for a while (k6kny, alan16v, iamsilverfox). I also saw 2 others with forum stickers but didn't meet the owners, and finally, all the Corrados at the Surrey meet today. The Nurburgring trip 5 years ago is the only time I've seen more in a single weekend I reckon! Just to put the icing on the cake, I saw a DB4 on the way home from the meet - one of my all time favourite cars!

I think Jon_vr6 may be a bit miffed since it was his car but I was driving :)

 

Lots of lingering looks from other cars too!

 

I was glad you were driving i hate traffic. Moto GP was good scarlet when we finally got through the traffic, had a guy compliment me on the plate when we parked up saying his mates daughter was called Storm hehe

We were both stuck at lights and it wasn't until we were moving that I saw you!

Red VR6 behind me in the company crap-heap (Ford) on the road to Bridport today. Did wave as we left you at the town bypass roundabout. Was driving slow in the hope you'd blast past and we could have got some pics!

Got a double C feast today. First one was about 12.40. Blackish, lowered, great rims and really looked A1 on the Poole to Blandford Road, on a private plate. I flashed and :thumbleft: was in the company crap heap so you may have been puzzled at an over-excited old geezer! Whoever you are (and you're not local) you have a lovely car and if you're in Dorset, get in touch through here or Dorset Corrado on FB!

Second one looked standard and sort of Blackberry colour at Derbys Corner heading toward Broadstone. Had no chance of waving! Most in one day outside of a meet!
