I've got my Corrado...

[Bally 0]

as above, some of you folks maybe aware, I've been in the Ford scene for nearly 9 years! and some of you had seen my old car, but hey, I finally after over 2months of timewasters, I sold it Friday nite, local guy had fallen for it a while ago, and was after it for ages!!

 

anyway, went to E38 in the morning (y'day) and the picked up the C about 6.30 lastnite, got home just after 9, all I can say is for a car to be standing for over a month, not been driven at all, it was a real nice drive home!! plus it started first time!! :D

 

Let the mods begin... :wink: :lol:

Oh well, was good show, the westside boys had some very nice cars :wink:

 

Plans for the C, is, get it looking mint, it hasn't be washed in months! I've got a few bits to fit, exhaust etc.. but first things first, it needs a good service..

Hi Sanj

 

Thanks for the comments on the polo, we noticed alot of folks looking at it as we drove up, and when we arrived we was asked if we wanted to participate in the show & shine, I laughed, never thought it was thats clean... :lol: as for sticking around, mate we got there about 11.00 and I was collecting the C which is why we left so early..

 

The C is from Fleet, about 70miles away, I did see alot of cars, even one B4 I picked up myn which is in the trader advertised as 'good condidtion' mate, it was a dog! nothing worked, it had low mileage, but it was such a nail, I said no way straight away! :roll: price wise, I got myn for under 2k which I don't think is too bad, theres some stunners out there, but there up for alot more money! :(

 

As for meeting up, yeap that fine, wehn you get your C we'll meetup..

 

As for the polo thing, I'm registered on that porka.net and have made comments on your car b4 on a few posts, I'm known as Bally there too... :wink:

 

Goodluck with the C search, it'll be worth it in the end... :D
