Cheers for that thumbup

I thought I was going mad not recognising it from the short shots that they do of it...

Good car?

yeah!


I wish I had kept it cry

It had very good build quality, handled very well, was a high spec, and went very well.

The thing that was most fun was how easy it was to change line mid bend and "place" on the road IYKWIM.

I was going to ask the same question (but I'm glad someone else did first wink )

Bit of an off-the-wall choice though, no? I'd have thought a BMW or Merc convertible would have been more obvious for a young (fit) lass flashing her newly-acquired cash (and more recognisable for your average Corrie viewer).

maybe Too obvious?

I was drawn to the PGo because it was not the obvious choice.

Possibly, but the fact that (at least) two people on a heavily-car-based website didn't know what the hell it was just makes it a bit of a left-field choice for a prime-time soap audience.

Maybe someone in the Corrie production team shares your tastes wink

On the other hand it ws a bit of a result on the part of Lifestyle automotive's Maketing guys to get the car in a prime time soap!

Several million people every viewing .

Must have cost a fortune.

I spoke to the guys at Lifestyle Automotive today.
(chasing up what's happening with Mastretta)

When Corrie have finished with the car, they are going to sell it.

They have already recieved a few enquiries from Corriie fans who want the car but they wanted to do something a bit different.

Any suggestions from the PH collective as to how you would best sell a car that Corrie fans might want?

My only suggestion was to ebay it with a explanation as to why it was "special"

Any suggestions?
