Jim Bowen 1 Posted May 13, 2016 Why is a silly woman bringing up her VW Beetle on the facebook post, always get this on posts about corrados, some people "oh i haven't got a corrado but here is a photo of my Bora or Passat" Corrado owners don't care, i certainly don't.

BILLCOR 1 Posted May 13, 2016 The VW media team are pretty good, it was them that sorted out the total cock up with my Golf 7R, I was getting nowhere until I posted on their Facebook page, within 10 days I had a confirmed build week and an apology for all the hassle, I also got £400 compensation to be taken as VW goods.

Jim 2 Posted May 13, 2016 The VW media team are pretty good, it was them that sorted out the total cock up with my Golf 7R, I was getting nowhere until I posted on their Facebook page, within 10 days I had a confirmed build week and an apology for all the hassle, I also got £400 compensation to be taken as VW goods. That is very good. To be fair to them as well, there's 26 million likes for their Facebook page. I can't imagine the amount of correspondence / queries they must get through Facebook so it would be impossible to acknowledge them all! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim Bowen 1 Posted May 13, 2016 Glad i didn't post on facebook now :lol: As long as she has always been a beetle fan and its not because its the car she owns at the moment, then i'm ok with it :) I hate people with shallow car morals :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Joe3954 10 Posted May 17, 2016 So been watching VWs page on Facebook and they are always discussing the cars of the past and giving lots of air time to Golfs and Siroccos and of course vans and beetles. But not one single picture (they have loads of the aforementioned) or comment from them on the Corrado - they will never answer any direct questions on this either The best car they ever made (ok biaised) and nothing from them When the latest TV ad came out a couple of months ago showing the older generations of VW I complained straight away because I'm sad. Saying about they always ignore the Rado. I got a call the next week from a lad saying we'll pass it on to the marketing department. Never heard anything back.... ☹️ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
