Aqua G60, i'm from Dartford mate, where in Kent are you? As i say, i've gotta get rid of my current car before i can get anything else. On another note, my missus doesn't like the Corrado. How's that for a bombshell?lol What do i do? Listen to the better half, take in her comments and try and come to a suitable agreement (will probably end up with "us" getting a Type-R), or do i just tell her where to go?lol. Tried testing the water with an "I don't care what you think" comment last night - thought she was gonna kill me! lol

Anybody know whether it's worth getting a cheap (less than £1000) VR6 then getting a reconditoned engine?

lol, nice comment about the ashtray. But in my defence it was a lesser of two evils (the other being a seat ibiza in yellow). The plan is to get the VR6 for driving pleasure and a cheap little £200 run around to get to work. Hell, i'm trying to get a second job in the evenings to achieve and maintain my dream! lol

Ok try this website, just copy and paste: http://www.japanese-car-dealer.co.uk/ot ... 54&Page=2# Hopefully this should get you there, it's the only VR6 on there. I know about the inductoin kit, had one on my Gti and it sounded so good :) It's good about the prices but am slightly worried about the mileage. Def want a VR6 but am wondering if it's worth getting one with 130,000+ miles on it. VW engines are good, but...... cheers for the info on the tensioners and chains.

It's gotta be the VR6. I've waited this long, i can't get anything else. i know it's impractical with fuel prices and tax etc, my mum will hate it and say it's irresponsible (as mothers genrally do! lol), but hey, this is a once in a lifetime dream. Incidentley, I've found a real nice looking one on autotrader for £2,995. VR6, gun metal grey, uprated alloys, induction kit. Looks top notch but it's in Dorset and i'm a long way away. If anyone's down there and fancies taking a look could you let me know what it's like. Or even just a quick view on autotrader, your opinions on here are very much appreciated. Cheers.

Cheers, i'll have a butchers!

Hi all. I have finally reached the point in my life where i can obtain a dream. As soon as i get rid of my current car (05 plate astra if anyone's interested in helping out a bit more), I am going Corrado shopping. However, i have no idea what to look for when viewing/testing cars. Please could someone out there give me some advice. Thanks. :)
