Favourite Raddo on the site

Recommended Posts

:oops: oooh, I'm all embarrassed and dead chuffed that so many of you like my motor.... the body needs a LOT of TLC at the moment, but after 240+ K miles, and me loosing my cool with the front wing :oops: that's not too suprising! :|

 

Anyway, back on topic, There is, in short, a LOT of damned nice cars on this forum... picking just some out is just soooooo difficult.... my current faves are:

 

A20Lee, the back end isn't my taste, but by God, it's a damned fine example of a modded Corrado... 8)

Jay's TT Dash'd car is absolutely stunning IMHO

OSV's silver VR6 just does something for me... it just looks soooo damned clean and cool... 8)

Kev's VR's simple, easy but novel mods and the fact he's done everything to make it handle and perform as the car should have done from the factory gets lots of respect from me too...

Andycowuk's red G60 gets some serious appreciation from me... there's not much obviously done to the looks from the outside, but, handling wise, he's definately got the edge over most of the cars here! ;) 8)

Then there's all the nutters with the 4x4 installs going in too... can't wait to see all of these finished and try it on against ya around a track! ;) :lol: 8)

soooo many good cars..... 8) Keep up the great work peeps! :D

Hard to choose as there are so many nice corrado's on the site, but if I had to:

 

Renshaws for overall body work

Hennys for engine

Lee's for interior

BiggerBigBens syncro thats my favourite, althou i prefere the look of it when it was low at inters.

 

not into massive flaired arches and really wide wheels so that rules out quite a few others, but i still think there nice just not to my taste

I think apose-gil aka alex corrado is pretty sweet , unique in styling with some pretty crazy power and 1/4 mile times hopefully 8) . A20 LEE is pretty sick pimpin example aswell :king:

Such a difficult one to answer, I suppose my styling tastes in Corrados is pretty conservative but its some of the many and varied projects that make the forum so lively and interesting. From handling mods, and engines to styling, interiors and now drive trains its just great. The Corrado is a pretty good standard product so you got to hand it to those who dare to make their own car more distinctive, the down side is it isn't always sucessful.

 

For all round appeal it would be Asim's Moonlight VR

 

But amongst my favourites for varying degrees of the reasons above and for keeping us entertained in no particular order the cars that spring to mind are

 

Phat VR6, A20LEE, Biggerbigben, Henny, Kevhaywire, Coxy Laad, G60 Renshaw.

These boys are always up to something. :shock:

 

To anyone who has been kind enough to mention my car, i'm genuinely humbled :oops: in such high quality company on this forum.

Blimey, I got some mentions..... wasn't expecting that :oops:

 

I have perhaps a very blinkered view of modding. I'm not into bling or drastically altering the bodywork. To my mind, the people that deserve the most respect are the ones that do all the work themselves. The people that aren't afraid to get stuck in, make mistakes and produce something they can be proud of. A joy to drive and look at.

 

So many people on here fit that bill but I think Henny and Phat really must get top honours there. They way they can strip an engine in hours and get the pics up is amazing :shock:

 

The 4x4 guys get top marks too for innovation and focusing on the things that matter the most, handling and deploying power to the tarmac.

 

And to round off...... Overall I'm still torn between OSV's and Asim's from a sheer class point of view.....erm...erm.....Asim gets it :lol: You can't really improve that car at all......Moonlight blue, RSs, cream leather, subtle body mods and a freak of a standard engine. He's taken a fantastic base car and applied mods that make it look modern and classy without going OTT.

 

VW proudly stamp the MK1 GTI as a significant milestone in their history and if one Corrado could be frozen in time for future appreciation, it's Asims.

To echo OSV's sentiments, I'm also genuinely humbled and massively appreciate the comments by you guys :oops: It means alot coming from other C owners who obviously love their cars as much as I do. Thanks alot guys!

 

There are loads of lovely cars on this forum, but if I had to nominate my 2 favourites I'd go with:

 

1. Jay's G60 for modded, because it's been so thoroughly executed and the overall look is just so right and so stunning. It has the wow factor, without going OTT, and it's his only car and he's done it all himself! Mucho respect.

 

2. Bill Aitken's VR for standard/subtle mods. It's probably the cleanest and finest low mileage example out there (although I haven't seen Tom's yet).

OSV's also deserves a mention as it looks damn fine and fresh looking in that Satin Silver :D

My vote goes to BluSLC. Some very nice subtle cars on here OSV's, Asims, biggerbigneils,etc but for me Suhk's hasn't held back and created a jaw dropper. PhatVR6 and biggerbigben are going to impress us next year.

Bloody hell, I'm chuffed my name has come up so many times... Come next year I hope people won't be disappointed with my efforts, both with the engine/drivechain, exterior and interior....

 

I love many corrados on this forum including Lee's, Jay's, Asim's etc, but my all time fav has to be Sukh's corrado...
