  1. He's copied the original advert word for word and if you look at the first post on this thread the ad was edited to remove the info so the sale is premeditated IMO

  3. And ebay https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1996-VOLKSWAGEN-CORRADO-VR6-STORM-MYSTIC-BLUE-LIMITED-EDITION/192911508027?hash=item2cea6c023b:g:~-AAAOSwutFc1BhS

    First car

    I had company vans until I was 25, the first I took home was a mk2 escort van, 1100 and drum brakes all around. Then mk2 facelft transit (plastic grill) - mk1 Astra van, followed by 2 mk2 Astra vans. The first car with my name on the log book was a mk2 cavalier 1600L 5 door in red.

    Corrado gone

    I can’t believe it took so long to sell. You have a wealth of knowledge, don’t be a stranger What gti have you bought?
  9. I've got 15, 16 and 17s for mine but only driven it on Speedlines and toyos lol
  10. I had a brief ride in mr lobitos 24v with koni coil overs and 17s and it rode well, you’d need to look into tyre wall flexibility and a good suspension kit to make for a reasonable ride. I’ve heard of people going to great expense to go from 17s to 16s and not feeling the benefit. Everything would need to work together or it would soon become tiresome imo
  11. If the battery will crank a 6 cylinder engine to the point it will fire up there’s not much wrong with it
  12. If there's a misfire emissions will be affected hence why I asked about the MOT. I'd spend time looking for air or vacuum leaks - servo, breathers, idle circuit, gaskets, damper, various hoses and injector seals etc. Spraying easy start around various joints can sometimes find leaks, other times it just gets to the cylinders too slowly to increase the idle enough to confirm a leak. You could try misting water around the ignition system on a dark evening to see if sparks are jumping to other places than the plugs.
  13. Has it passed an MOT with the lumpy idle?
  14. The originals lift at speed, there's no negatives to this upgrade unless you're a purist
  15. http://wiki.the-corrado.net/lupo_wipers.html
  16. The whole point for me was to fit superior aero wipers. I'm sure the part numbers are in the wiki?

  20. I'm sure this has come up previously and the OP ended up buying a kit and making up their own? Ford Galaxy used the VR6 so maybe you can buy them from Ford?
  21. Maybe the roofs been reskinned, that would explain the shocking paint? I bet the gutters could tell a tale?
  22. I'm sure you can get polyurethane mountings? Also C and R used to sell rubber mounts with chains inside for the Quattro that fitted MK2s?
