Feels soooooooo good

Recommended Posts

On Saturday morning i took my Corrado over to Midland VW for a head rebuild. Its the first time its been driven in 7 weeks, and my god did it feel good to drive it again! I've been driving my mum's N reg escort for the past few months and its made me realise how good the Rado really is. The seats, the driving position, the heavy power steering, the clunky gearbox, i feckin loved it!

 

Dont think i'll ever be selling the C, no car feels anything like it

Starting to quite bad CWS (corrado withdrawal syndrome). It's been made worse by me having to drive round in my old citroen!

I'm missing my Corrado after just 4 days of it being in the garage - I'd hate to think what it feels like after 7 weeks and even worse at 3 months!!

bit of a thread hijack... sorry skinnyman9000 and happy birthday!

 

I've been abroad with work for a month, got back last night and picked my rado up from the garage today. I love my car (despite my £560 bill....)!! 1st thing I did was spend another 40 quid on fuel :roll: and then went for a drive in the sunshine. It was fantastic! The noise, the power, the annoying rattle in the back, the driving position, the jealous glances from other drivers, the bit of trim covering the handbrake falling off every other minute - I loved it all :luvlove: Now I have my rado back, I really feel home and I feel on top of the world :colours:

 

Just wanted to share my euphoria with one and all!

mines been off the road for 9 months - only this week have i finished everything needed to get it mot'ed and mapped. To say I'm excited about driving the g60 everyday again within the next 2 weeks is a serious understatement! And over the past few months the condition has been getting better and better - its never been in such a good condition as now - I can't bl00dy wait!!!!

liberated the VR from it's garaged winter storage yesterday (best Easter Egg i opened all day :lol: )... i was grinning like a loon on the drive home.

 

took it home and gave it some new discs and pads as a homecoming present... cleaned from one end t'other... drove to Mum & Dads for some food and watched it get $hit on by a pair of pigeons :mad: ...just going to fill a bucket and clean it again!!

 

hopefully start C-spotting again from tomorrow!
