1990 VW Corrado 16V – Non Sunroof Here we have my advert for my 1990 VW Corrado 1.8 16V I bought this with the intention of taking the interior out of it for my other Corrado project, and turning this one into a track day car. However, due to a lack of time, space and money I am forced to sell it. I have quite a bit of History on this Car, it was used as the previous owners daily drive until approximately 2009, then the Heater matrix went and he parked it up at his friends Garage hoping he would fix it for him. When coming down to see my Dad and his Land rover one day I see this parked up and make enquiries about buying it. A few weeks later it is mine. It had already been left standing at this garage for about a year before I bought it, then two years after buying it. This summer I started to strip it before realising that having two project Corrados isn’t really sensible. At the moment as you can see in the photos the only trim installed are the front door cards, dash, and front seats, however I have retained all the grey interior from my other car so the New owner can reinstall the interior making it a normal road car again. Good points: -Non Sunroof Model, extremely rare. -Original suspension -15” BBS alloys -Spoiler motor completely functional. -All Electrics work -Good Runner. -90mm splitter -Rust free around fuel flap -Corrado handling is spot on -Not terribly high mileage. -Trim retained including headlining. Bad points -Extremely tired Paintwork, Drivers side completely matte, and scratched to hell. Passenger side recently compounded to give the paint some shine. -Rust on passenger door, tiny patches around arch and under rear spoiler. -Car stood for a number of years so needs all liquids changing. -Needs a thorough service for the same reason as above. -Two tyres have punctures. -Missing fuse box cover is the only bit of trim that is missing. -No speakers in front door cards. -No Mot -No Tax I hope you can see the same potential in this car as I saw in it when I first saw it. With a thorough service you could have a fully functioning 16v track day car, if you wanted more power the 1.8 20v Turbo go in fairly easily giving you access to seriously big power. Also as most of this car is Golf Mk2 sourced suspension and engine components are very accessible. I have the most recent MOT test fail report so you could see exactly what needs to happen to get it road legal. I honestly think this car is far too good for Breaking. More Pics Here http://s568.photobucket.com/user/jamie_300/library/Corrado Price £600, near offers accepted, can do offers where you bring your own wheels, or do not want the big box of the interior parts. Location Bordon, Hampshire If desired I have access to a car trailer and prepared to drop the car off to you however as this is provided by my father, it will need to be evening or weekend time and I am not prepared to go too far. There will be additional cost for this, and I will have to ask for a deposit. Thank you for viewing my advert, please feel free to call me on 07803571243, pm me or email [email protected].

I'm going, haven't been for a few years :) Corrado's not even close to being on the road though :( -
I am going to be breaking an early valver, no sunroof in the near future, any good?
-
someone had a bench for sale on edition i think? But the other way of telling is the sides of the seat the sides very pronounced on a golf's recaro but on a C there are more subtle!
-
Yeah the audi's always had 5v on the engine cover, clearly someone doesn't know the difference between valves and cylinders!
-
spoonfed make one already, unless you want to do it yourself? :)

Dogger does this mean, that RHD scuttle trays and windscreen trims aren't going to be able to be bought in a few years time? As I am building my Corrado project slowly and haven't got the funds to buy now but was hoping to buy after I had finished Uni? That said iff I needed to buy now I'm sure I could live off bread and water if needs be!! :lol:

Hi everyone, due to my wings on my late spec C rusting out I have some wings in far better condition on my early spec C that I was planning on using. Will these fit together if I use a late spec bumper? I was planning on swapping my late spec bonnnet for an early one, will this fit using a ABF engine? As far as I know the bonnet was only raised for the VR6 engine? Cheers in advance :) Jamie
