Deposit down and hopefully collecting it on weekend. Found a 2.0 16v, here's the link: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201134411982520/sort/priceasc/usedcars/model/corrado/make/volkswagen/page/1/quicksearch/true/radius/1500/postcode/m309ax?logcode=p Had a good conversation with the guy this morning and i was sold on it. Cant wait to pick it up, might have some 17's for it stored up but will see when i collect it. Will let you all know soon.

Cheers for the reply guys. When i said i wanted something cheap to run, i should have made it abit clearer that i meant fuel and day-today running. Like most VW's at a certain age they all need work and unless i spend £3k plus for something that is good but not immaculate so i get where you're both coming from. For a £1k i can get a fairly decentish 2.0 16v which is what i would probably go for unless i can get a cheap G60. Which ever car i buy i know that its going to need money throwing at it and thats is probably why i want something that needs a little TLC. As stupid as it sounds, i like to make something **** look amazing, well try to. I will have a look around and be patient and see what comes up, i know they are getting rare and have their common faults, but i look forward to owning one. My mate has got a VR6 which has been sat on his drive for the past year and thats has all the common things wrong with it but he loves it that much that he wont sell it. Maybe if i get mine it might inspire him!! Will keep you guys posted.

Hi all, After messing around on the net and looking through eBay, i've taken quite a liking to the Corrado. Wasn't my first choice at first as i was after a BMW E30 325i or a Mk2 Golf GTi but i quite fancy a Corrado now. I've not got a massive amount to spend as i've got a E46 330d Touring and a E30 cab which is in the process of being done up. For my budget (up to £1000), there a few choices, most of them a little older or something that needs a little TLC with masses of mileage but have a choice of 1.8 16v, 2.0 16v and one or two G60's. Abit sceptical about which one to buy as i just want a cheap weekend car thats not going to cost me the earth to run. Just wondering what i should be looking out for and what is the best car-to-money option. Cheers Lloyd

I'm looking to buy a VR but most of them i've seen dont have aircon. I know that most cars that did was dealer fitted when new. Will i be able to fir one in without spending fortunes or am i better buying one with?
