Practical Classics Restoration Show 23 -25 March 2018

Recommended Posts

Come and display your Corrado and celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the model at this amazing indoor show!

Fifth year running, and fifth year the Corrado Club of Great Britain will be attending. Come along to this show at the NEC (yes, indoors), and you can even do some restoration work on your Corrado!

 

Your Corrado needs to be brought onto the stand at the NEC on Thursday 22/3/2018, and needs to stay there till the close of the show on Sunday 25/3/2018. You will receive a free entry ticket and a free parking ticket for 3 days, so you can bring alternative transport to get to and from the show.

 

Date & Time: Friday, 23 March 2018, 09:00 — Sunday, 25 March 2018, 17:30

Hi Ron - I believe Eric is interested in taking a space, if he hasn't already registered. May be worth dropping him a quick email but I saw him earlier this week and he mentioned he was going to get in touch!

Hi All,

 

Just thought I better break cover, following all the help on this Forum!

 

My 2 year long VR6 Restoration project is now confirmed as a finalist, competing to win the hearts and votes of visitors.

 

It will be on display on the Lancaster Insurance 'Pride of Ownership' stand, in the middle of Hall 5 Stand 450.

 

Looking forward to my first Corrado event!

I believe the red Corrado took third place in the Pride of Ownership awards. I popped past earlier today to stick my vote in the box - it really is an absolutely stunning example.

Restored to the point of perfection, I suspect the winner was due to popularity of that model rather than being of a higher standard?

Hi Graham, many thanks for taking the time to show us around your car (I was one of the 3 lads over from Ireland visiting the show). Stunning car and work.

 

Many thanks Eric also for the chat at the club stand.

 

Few pics I took - wish I took more of these cars

From their website,

 

The Lancaster Insurance Pride of Ownership sping final was won by Paul Clappison’s 1972 MGB GT, with Bron Burrell’s ex-World Cup Rally Austin Maxi called ‘Puff’ taking second place while Graham Varley’s 1993 VW Corrado VR6 was third.

Nice pictures the auto box corrado vr6 that was in the auction went for 7.5k plus commission, it had 60k odd on the clock. It's the blue one with grey leather in your picture.
