I thought I had the Corrado in Jan 2010, in fact I didn’t buy it til April. So in January 2010 I would still have been driving the Corsa C 1.2
Corrado with original Speedline
V-maxing
With BBS

a stripped out CLK55 AMG.
Now: RenaultSport Megane 250 Cup and a stripped out Skoda Fabia.

Kin, what does the Corrado speedo show in thar photo? I always had a suspicion that mine was a particularly fit example and saw 150 on the clock on the M40 once.

Normally the Porsche & the Aston are in the garage. So yes, if I want to drive my Porsche I have to move my Aston and my rally car out of the way.

[mention]Jobbo[/mention] 138/9 in the photo but it got up to 145/6mph. Stability at high speed was very good but I thought it’s best to have two hands on the steering wheel and look where I was going

Didn't buy my 987 until November '10 so I believe it would have been the silver 156 2.0TS in January of that year. Alfa to 911 are two pretty good petrolhead bookends
