Wow selling so soon Andy!? First dibs?!

Was around Pontypool today and a lovely clean black rado on a private plate ending in ROD pulled up beside me, very very nice whoever you are!

Superb result mate, glad to see it looking so good.

Glad you have finally taken the plunge to sort the paint Andy, look forward to seeing the results.

Yeh, good job it did or you'd have been in trouble! :lol:

 

The big day is fast approaching- what's the date again? All set?

Erm this Saturday mate, slightly bricking it now but yes pretty much all set thankfully!

Well took her in for the MOT today at my local VW specialist (Blake Services, Stroud).

 

Passed with flying colours. Co2 emissions were just 0.01% 8)

 

Couple of minor advisories: handbrake cable + front wishbone bushes.

 

Well chuffed, especially with the emissions!

Great news Andy, I was very confident it would fly through, mind you it had hardly done any mileage since the last one.. ;)

I feel your pain mate :(

Good luck with the replacement.

Yep got one of these myself with the press F reg G60 on the cover think it's from late 1988. Lots of Corrado content as it's from when it was first released and is still a good read today ;)

Well the Corrado has gone, driven into the sunset by one very happy new owner.

Be good to see how it progresses under Andy's ownership, i think it can certainly be taken on a stage or two in the body department, then I reckon he will have a real minter.

Ok hands up. It was me. It is being collected tomorrow evening and I'm GUTTED it's going but needs must!

Just glad that it is off to a good home and I know it will be very well looked after.

It was there ;)

Got mine today too, thanks Jim, an excellent read as always.

Andy I think you may need to write an updated article for the next issue ...

Pleased to hear it got through ok Andy, should sell easily with the care and attention we all know you give to your cars.

Well I got up at 7.30 and everyone had disappeared! Wasn't gonna hang around while the place turned into a mud bath, shame really as Saturday was a cracker.

Lovin my new lights Andy!

10am is fine Andy. Just confirm we are meeting up on Saturday morning mate and not Friday? Wouldn't want to be hanging around the pub for 24 hours ......... or would I?!

Stick me down as a camper please Andy! Really enjoyed this one last year 8)

Very nearly 7 years since I first commented on this and it's looking better than ever 8)

Red J reg G60 parked up today behind the Renault and Suzuki dealers by the Callow near Hereford

L reg VR being serviced at ECS in Malvern today.

Is ECS on Spring Lane? Was having my lunch in that area at 1ish when I saw a grey L reg VR using it as a test track, sounded good 8)

Not long after that spotted a red G60 reg was something like J*** MRK, going past Brays store.

Spotted Swompy today heading along the A48 away from Lydney at about 12ish, I'd recognise those curls a mile off :lol: managed to get right behind you in me van and gave you a flash and thumbs up before you turned off at Blakeney, car looked good fella :)

Before that I was parked at Co Op in Lydney and saw an older chap driving a white VR with rear lights exactly like swompys, reg was something like L*** YJD, it seems the good weather always brings out the rados 8)

Ah yeah a belated happy Bday from me too!

Reckon that view looks like Cinderford/Littledean area? Either way I'm liking the garage, plenty of room to swing yer spanners! 8)

There is a genine Storm out there without a sunroof, this one sounds like it could be Butterflys old motor. Was a lovely car when she owned it but it's been a few years since she sold it on, shame there are no pics in the ad to back it up.

Red j reg with German style plates, black wheels by tescos at Belmont, Hereford last night about 7ish. Wasn't in mine though. Typical. I did 700+ miles to Scotland and back last week and didn't see any then this 1 turns up almost on me doorstep!

Black rado on the Brecon bypass today about 1.45ish

Yeah I was pretty happy too, not bad for 14 years old and 121k! Do you work at Neds then?

I'm up at Belmont not far from tesco, guess you live local too?
