Corrado Spotting! Was it you?

Recommended Posts

Hi Mr Sands,

I was on the M5 last week and in Droitwich as well. My VR storm has has a private plate starting with M and ending in MMA so it may have been me.

If so, spotted at last :D

Lovely looking blue 'rado, possibly VR, personalised reg beginning M, northbound M5 past Junction 5 at about half five.

Have had my car for almost two and a half weeks and still haven't spotted another C on the road! :( :D

 

Had mine about 12 years and decided it's not white, it's invisible.

Matt, that sounds about right, certainly looked like Mystic colour. Sure it was yours and it was worth waiting for a spot because the Corrado looked gorgeous.

spotted 2 within the space of 10 minutes earlier in the week (possibly tuesday) in S.Croydon/Purley. The first was a blue VR with gold wheels, and the other was a standard green storm 8). Both parked up!

If you were the driver of the nice looking, modded H reg I flashed to in Astwood Bank about an hour ago, apologies: so excited to see another Corrado, I forgot I was driving a quite charming courtesy blue Polo supplied by DG Autotech...

ok, very late spot, but thought it was worth a mention, 2 spotted in plymouth last weekend(i was visiting family), first was at the roundabout near tesco in the centre, modded black (late?) model, you were waiting at the lights just as i was setting off, i was well excited as its the first corrado i've seen since i bought mine, honestly can't remember the plate...

 

second one was spotted parked in the blockbuster car park off union street, creamy white k reg (k *** RLL?) Red and clear rear lights bbs looked nice and i think its the one that appears on the banners from time to time at the top of the page(at least it looks like it!)

 

Spotted loads of old dubs whilst i was down there, 2 corrados, 2 mk1 golf, 1 caddy, 1 polo g40, countless campers and beetles(no change there!) and lots of mk2/mk3 golfs and a lupo. i've owned my corrado for 2 months now and all i've spotted up here is 1 nice mk3 golf who gave me a wave and a mk2 jetta who gave a nod. :) Not to mention not actually being spotted myself... :wave:

There used to be a dark green VR6 near me and a rusty red 16v at the seafront, both not seen for a while. Looks like I'll have to get down to Worthing to spot / be spotted. :D

Was at DG Autotech today and there were a staggering 10 Corrado's there at one point, mostly all there for work or some kind of TLC. I had to double check that it wasn't actually the open day today and not next week!! :)

Amongst other things...God bless Dave, his keen ear and his ten tonne press.

 

Oh, and his ability to make bacon sandwiches, having "loosened up" stubborn bolts for Graham... :D

Saw a silver one in Waitrose/Homebase carpark, Willerby tonight at about 1930hrs.

 

Just in case they're a member of this forum I don't wish to offend but it looked like a mini chav meet. I think I saw tracksuits!

 

Rado looked tidy though, from a distance.

I believe one of them was in the most desirable of all colours though! :tongue: :luvlove:

 

Mind you, all of the corrados were in danger of being overshadowed by 'the loner' :roll:

Hey, don't slag the temporary ride. That Polo and I had a magical couple of days getting acquainted before she went off to Surrey with someone new. Tart broke my heart... :lol:
