Does look tasty that G60, even though I was after a VR.

£4.5k I think it sold for. Bought for £2.5k. Spent way more than that though! 😄

Got rid last time due to impending child! Shes 11 in Sept! 😲

Buy a minter or buy a cheap one and make mint? I imagine buying one that’s already done will be ultimately cheaper.

Aqua Blue VR6! This is mint but seems overpriced?? https://www.carandclassic.co.uk/car/C1323257

I think it’s being over 10 years since Corrado-ness left my life but now I’ve got a lot of money ‘maybe’ for another one. Not sure to find a minter or one that needs work and get a minter that way? 🤷‍♂️

That one you sold several months back looked a minter.

Well it's been a few years since I was last on here but I just cannot contain this itch! I want a Corrado again!!!! I currently have a Fabia vRS II Estate (61 Reg) and my plan is to sell that and get a daily driver like a MK1 Fabia vRS (cheap to run etc) and use the remainder for a Corrado. I reckon I could manage £4k-£5k for one. Last one I 'restored' so to speak and spent a fair bit on it so this time I want one that's Minty Mcmint from the offset, or mint'ish. Reckon up to £5k would get this?

:lol: No they're definately disks!

Picked it up this morning from London, driven to Clacton. 61.2mpg and its only 120miles! Very nice and highly recommended! Off up to Robin Hoods bay (from Essex) tomorrow so should be a good test. Can definitely recommend the website I bought it from (although I did buy it from a dealer not the website!), saved me £2,500 in comparison to my 2 local Skoda dealers!

Make sure its got the CR TDI engine in it and not the PD version.

Well, just ordered this 10 mins ago! Not this exact one, a brand new one. Take 8-10 weeks for delivery.

WTF? :shrug:

Oh and you can get much better finance rates (esp on PCP) with new cars, used cars cost more in interest. If I was buying outright then maybe but privately I couldn't finance it, standard HP would be too much on £17k unless its done over 5 years, which is too long.
