Nice one, Corrado's a great present when you're 18, I had to wait till I was 21 to be given a car, and that was my mums AX 1.1, to be honest it wasn't that bad a car while it lasted (wrote it off after a month :( but got £2500 from the insurance :) )

cheers!! and as for the insurance..i think im only goin on his, as a named driver...i think lol

[matthewb1985 0]

I wouldnt bother going on your dads insurance. I know someone on here who is newish member. He is 24 and for some reason has always been on his dads insurance, even now with a modified VR6 corrado. He is still paying £1200 quid.

 

Might aswell get your own.

[michael_m 0]

cos he hasnt built up no claims?? ive already got 1 years no claims..clean license same as my dad..but realy all i care about is driving the corrado!! :D

[stevef182 0]

yeah but in a few years that extra few years no claims would go down real well, (unless you go with Direct line who will give you both the no claims!!)

[michael_m 0]

well...finally got the corrado back from the local garage. the car was in to get it ready for M.O.T and a few minnor bits and bobs. dad and i took it out a run last night and for an 18 year old car..its still very sturdy, nippy and a head turner :D i cant wait hehe. il get some pics postd up asap
