Cressa 44 Posted March 21, 2016 Just thought I'd put this out there to see what replies could be had. My list could be endless; •Deep pockets •Patience •Breakdown/recovery policy •Somewhere dry to store and repair it •Use of another vehicle (I'm obviously having a bad time with mine at the moment) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bowen 1 Posted March 21, 2016 A 2nd car has been the most beneficial to me. Before that, Any work had to be done in a weekend, so couldn't really take on the big stuff. Prices for some parts are bad compared to common poverty type cars from the same era, but compared to some prices i hear for something like a modern day equivalent of a corrado, it makes the corrado seem cheap and affordable performance really.

Dazz_G60_Wales 0 Posted March 22, 2016 Have to love it enough that the pain and despair of ownership simply goes away. Spent a small fortune on mine but no other car has given Me the same feeling as when I first seen the spoiler go up when trundling behind one in my Astra GTE mk2 back in 1993 :@) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
