Hairyarse 10 Posted May 11, 2015 Hey all Well I hadn't expected to be doing this any time soon, but in part due to a change in circumstances, plus the need for a little more MPG and the ability to tow a trailer for my business, I'm going to be putting the C up for sale shortly. A diesel Beemer will be replacing it. There's a small amount of paint I need to get the bodyshop to sort, plus a couple of minor niggles then it will be ready for someone to take on. It's a shame but will make someone a cracking ride. I'm sure I'll be behind the wheel of a C before too long though :thumbleft: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairyarse 10 Posted May 13, 2015 Blimey, I thought the above would have got some sort of reaction! lol For those interested, I dropped the car off at the bodyshop today where it will have the sill cleaned up, stonechipped and painted, along with a couple of other areas. I drove it there thinking 'I'm going to miss this! :(' - but needs-must! Pics to follow on its return, which I hope is Monday ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ray1965 10 Posted May 13, 2015 I'm sure someone will give the car a loving home. Shame though :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Mystic Blue VR 10 Posted May 14, 2015 Very sorry to hear that Andy but a case of as needs must I suppose. Best of luck with the business & I'm sure, one day, you'll have another Corrado. Cheers, Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairyarse 10 Posted May 14, 2015 Thanks for the comments chaps! Yes it's a case of having to which always makes it tough. I'm sure I'll be behind the wheel of a C again, it's one car I only became acquainted with last year and can't believe I wasn't sooner - they're such nice cars, both to look at and drive! It will probably be up for sale towards the end of next week-ish. It will be a sad last drive in it, when I have it. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bullfinch 0 Posted May 16, 2015 I sold mine today after 6 years of ownership. I'm glad it's gone to a good home but I will miss it Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairyarse 10 Posted May 27, 2015 Well it's finished and ready for sale, just writing the advert up. It's looking all spangly now - I'm really going to miss this car!! :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted May 27, 2015 Looks great, a shame you have to sell. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chuggs1 10 Posted May 27, 2015 Looks really nice should sell well - I'm starting to really like that colour Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairyarse 10 Posted May 27, 2015 Yeah it's a real shame. When I drove off to take the pics for the advert it put a real smile on my face - and a sad one when I drove it back! The Corrado has really got under my skin - what a great car!!! I'm sure I'll be behind the wheel of another before too long ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chuggs1 10 Posted May 27, 2015 Just looked at your advert on our website and the pictures - looks so nice and pretty much a bargain at that price - someone will be very lucky methinks Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hairyarse 10 Posted May 27, 2015 Thanks Chuggs :thumbleft: To be honest the market price for Corrados is so wide, it's hard to put a price on it. But with a recent engine rebuild and all else good bar a few cosmetic issues, hopefully it will serve someone well for a long time to come. It's certainly the sort of car I'd happily buy back one day if it was looked after still. ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
