bristolbaron 11 Posted July 27, 2013 Just taken a deposit on the VR and realised from Thursday this will be the first time I've been Corradoless in almost 9 years! Heres a Flickr link with photos of some of the highlights! FLICKR I'm sure I'll still be checking in here daily, if not just to browse the classifieds :bonk: I'll defo be in another one at some point, I just have to get a few things in order first. I'll be up the garage this week photographing spare parts for sale - there are boxes and boxes to go through. Baz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted July 27, 2013 Take the time out you need, then come back with renewed enthusiasm when your ready bud! Whereabouts in Bristol are you Baz? My folks live in Oldland Common and I'm up there visiting quite regularly. I can get them to pick up, or I can if it coincides with reference to the parts you will be selling that may appeal mate.

bristolbaron 11 Posted July 27, 2013 Cheers guys - Sean I'm in Fishponds, so not far.. James, of course Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet_vr6 0 Posted July 27, 2013 (edited) ah, Fishponds! I used to go there when I was little as my grandmother lived there. I'll be keeping a close eye on the classifieds too... I think a fair few people will be! Don't sell too much though - you know you'll need some of it when you come back!

bristolbaron 11 Posted July 27, 2013 small world :lol: theres not a lot up there thats exciting, just piles of 'stuff' thats been accumulated! There is a set of grey leather Recaros though - the plan is/was to save them for a Storm grey VR for the future, but who knows. Otherwise it's mostly bits. i want to start over with a clear garage rather than trying to squeeze a car around boxes :bonk: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Portent 0 Posted July 28, 2013 Sad times but good news you've sold. I'm sure you'll be back. They all come back :D Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Portent 0 Posted July 28, 2013 Wait, what? Storm grey leather recaros you say? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 11 Posted July 28, 2013 :lol: :lol: there's really not much exciting stuff! i promise! Wait, what? Storm grey leather recaros you say? as per the other thread, your car is pretty much my perfect spec.. Storm grey, Recaros, Schrick/VSR, Audioscapes are all essentials in the next car. :afro: Other option is ridiculous 2.0 16vG60 monster with ultraviolet recaros!

craigowl 0 Posted July 28, 2013 I feel honoured to have become Corradoless in the same month as a true leg end among us serfs. Oops! Seriously though, I wish you all the best for the future bb, and I will be looking in on here from time to time, too. Tough withdrawing from all things Corrado, it would appear!

bristolbaron 11 Posted July 30, 2013 you sold the green one? Yup, first viewer! Collecting thursday. Popped up the garage today to start sorting things - might take a while.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted July 30, 2013 Yikes! It's a bit like Cash in the Attic - but a bit more interesting :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet_vr6 0 Posted July 30, 2013 Good grief! I thought my garage was full of Corrado parts... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 11 Posted July 30, 2013 I know I know.. silly really, but so pleased to have everything in one place now and the thought of clearing it all is even better! To be honest, there's loads up there which really is just junk.. old broken bits I took of and for some reason didn't bin? Others will come to good use. Best bit will be working out how to fill it all again once its empty! :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie 1 Posted July 30, 2013 I'm just glad you've sold it and not broken it - seems to be far too many being broken up at the moment :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bristolbaron 11 Posted July 30, 2013 I'd never break one - too lazy :lol: Saved a couple over the years from breakers and poor modifiers! This one had a dodgy exhaust and badly tinted lights but luckily I found it before it was too late :cheers: I'll be on to sorting out my mk2 next, in fact I might do a thread for it as it could get interested.. another project 'save me' Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jamie 1 Posted July 30, 2013 Yeah go on - I love a decent MKII :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlet_vr6 0 Posted July 30, 2013 Think your garage is better stocked than my local stealer. In fact I'm sure it is!
