Regrettably it's come to that time when i have to sell my Corrado! (Company car on it's way - Would store it but have no space!) I've had it for about 18 months and have loved every minute that i've spent driving it (and it's a lot of minutes). Trouble is i have no idea how much it is realistically worth. Rough Spec below - can someone give me a guide! Dragon Green 2.0 16v 1995 (N Reg) 104,000 miles (needs a service in 2k but will do before sale if required) 12 months MOT, tax until end of year Cat 1 self closure alarm E/W E/S ABS etc etc Full VW service history 6 Disc Changer in boot The bonnet has stone chips in it from motorway driving and there are a few small scratches on it but it's in very good condition. Let me know your thoughts on a price and you'll see it posted in the classifieds v.soon! Thanks Marc mailto:[email protected]

Thanks all who have replied - here are the answers to some of your questions!! They didn't change anything at the service and they said that they didn't tinker with anything either! I have had a play with the distributor and the power cable was definitely loose but it still doesn't feel right now! It doesn't seem to have all that much power and seems noisier than normal! :? I came across another problem at the weekend - i was changing the rear brakes (discs and pads) but couldn't loosen the bolts (alan key head) that hold on the carrier? any ideas of how best to loosen these as there isn't much room to play with! Also they seem to need a 7.5mm key - isn't this a bit of an unusual size?? Finally does anyone know where i can find replacement bolts in case i have to destroy them to get them off! Cheers all

Help!! My Corrado (2.0 16v) has just been through it's first MOT and service and has come out worse than it went in!! In the six months (and 10,000miles) that i have owned the car i haven't had a single problem with it - then the day after it's service it broke down twice. The first time i was driving in the outside lane of the motorway and the second time i was doing about forty - both times the revs just dropped out and the car spluttered a lot. At first the car won't start but after a short break it will just start again and be fine! I took it back into the garage and they said they couldn't find anything wrong with it but i don't really trust them very much!! Any ideas as to what could be wrong?
