n3p 3 Posted October 29, 2019 Just downloaded everything from my photobucket due to them being absolute sh*t these days and re-hosted elsewhere. Found a lot of old pictures from past CCGB and other shows including GTI International and Motorsport at the Palace, etc. so I thought i'd share them here. Who is who? I certainly do remember some cars :) Apologies if some pics appear squished more to follow... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
n3p 3 Posted October 29, 2019 I'll try to dig out some more from elsewhere. Interested to hear who was here and if you're still with a Corrado, or what you've replaced it with etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Kevin Bacon 5 Posted October 29, 2019 That's my old girl in the middle, but I can't see myself in any of the pics. What show was that? I don't even remember being there :lol: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted October 29, 2019 Love the BBS RS. did they do these in - 5x100 stud as well guys, only thought they came in 4 stud? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
seanl82 23 Posted October 29, 2019 Some of Hardwood House and Bruntingthorpe. I can very vaguely see myself and car in a couple of the pics. None focussed on either of us though thankfully! I'm still here loosely and still have the car too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ger040 3 Posted October 29, 2019 some great pictures of some fantastic corrados - but has the photographer got something against G60's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Keyo 47 Posted October 29, 2019 Great pictures to check out how the cars look with different alloy wheels. Think the 16 speedlines look mint. P.s anyone after some tyres these could be a bargain https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/16-Genuine-BBS-RS771-Split-Rims-VW-Alloy-wheels-5X100/223722845123?_trksid=p2485497.m4902.l9144 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billzeebub 1 Posted October 29, 2019 See my old Storm M964XSX (and my naked legs) make an appearance in on photo. That was the 25th Anni National Day in 2013. A lovely warm day as I recall Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Matt_ 32 Posted October 30, 2019 Nice pics, although they may not be that much safer (for longevity of access) on this forum, as I found myself. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
sexybourbon 0 Posted October 30, 2019 Dragon green vr with gold wheels is mine Although it's now supercharged and had a full rebuild Don't even try to post pictures on here no more! How the hell did you manage to get them on I remember going for a test drive in your car with vag hag when we was at the Airfield meet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ChrisL 20 Posted October 30, 2019 Shortly after everyone had gone, those of us camping were given permission to take the Corrado’s down the runway! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
n3p 3 Posted October 31, 2019 Brilliant pics! Some pics of my old blackberry C! Lovely blackberry it was too! That's my old girl in the middle, but I can't see myself in any of the pics. What show was that? I don't even remember being there :lol: I think it was Stanford Hall - guessing you'd sold up by then otherwise I'd have been picking your brain over turbos all day :lol: Love the BBS RS. did they do these in - 5x100 stud as well guys, only thought they came in 4 stud? BBS RS301 which is a Corrado fitment IIRC - very nice, but not cheap! some great pictures of some fantastic corrados - but has the photographer got something against G60's haha, if more G60s turned up then maybe there would have been more picture to take :) Seems that even back then there weren't too many attending shows See my old Storm M964XSX (and my naked legs) make an appearance in on photo. That was the 25th Anni National Day in 2013. A lovely warm day as I recall Hope you're well mate! You back in a(-nother) corrado? :) Dragon green vr with gold wheels is mine Although it's now supercharged and had a full rebuild Don't even try to post pictures on here no more! How the hell did you manage to get them on I remember going for a test drive in your car with vag hag when we was at the Airfield meet I remember, how are you doing? Glad to hear you've still got yours, actually one of my favourites! That test drive probably did vag hag no favours as he told he went turbo shortly after :lol: I'm back in a turbo again, but alas no longer a corrado or VAG for that matter. I've just linked the pictures from an external site (flickr) using BBcode. I think the actual corrado forum attachment thingy is broken though. Nick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harrier 1 Posted October 31, 2019 Hi Nick Some nice memories from those shows, the rolling shots of mine (C11VRG) look stunning Sold that car a long while ago now and do miss it Do still own a Corrado though Another black one :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nick Thanks think I'm going to get some 15” BBS RS033 4x100 for my golf or BBSRM instead as I like to go tops 16' with my Rado just personal preference,also more like the 1100 mark then 2k plus for the RS301 so more affordable.

Keyo 47 Posted October 31, 2019 (edited) They were genuine RS,s yes 17in 5x100 et 35 Moved them on a while ago now Thanks I actually stumbled across the thread for sale where you advertised them, do you regret selling them? bet they sold for a pretty penny. how much were they advertised for if you don't mind me asking (not the actual selling price). These alloys have a had a few owners from this Forum from what I read , they are like famous lol. Cheers. Edited October 31, 2019 by Keyo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Harrier 1 Posted October 31, 2019 Sold them for 2.5 k That was the asking price Don’t regret selling them, enjoyed them for a few years, They were a bit of a pain at times having to be ultra careful when driving on our potholed roads and also Worrying if the centre caps would get stolen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
