Lovely motor mate. Love that license plate haha

I've just read the whole first page post - and now going to have a skim over the last few pages seeing how she's looking now. And try and find out if its a Storm or not! It's like a good story that I need to find out the ending 2 years later! haha.. Looking to get my own VR6 over the next 6 months or so so really good to read stories like this. Thanks :D

Wonder if you still have this Joe - Carl

Yeah buddy! PM me if you get one please! Before xmas there was quite a few about nothing worth £6k tho' from what I can remember

I've been keeping an eye open for a nice Rado' for a while now. Like yourself looking to get another just for weekends! I'm tracking ebay, autotrader and Gumtree. I'm looking at around the £4k mark but not just yet (5-6 months time... i'm just watching the prices etc for now!) (wil get a red vr hopefully). Pretty nice Black one on Gumtree right now and someone listed this today that looks mint-o. http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1991-Volkswagen-Corrado-Supercharged-G60-AKA-Jesus-/161938542924?hash=item25b44a114c:g:-AkAAOSwX~dWjFAV I'll be super interested to know where you pick one up from n how much!

I'm just playing the waiting game now for a decent VR6 for about £2k to come up. This one has 138k miles... A bit high for my liking really... http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1994-Volkswagen-Corrado-VR6-Red-Clean-/151326178868?&_trksid=p2056016.m2516.l5255

I thought that too. I'm going for a drive today with george (Joeblogsvr6) to have a little look at VR6's... after listening to engines on youtube i'm definitely leaning towards vr6's over g60s.

Both as good as new lads, make me an offer i'll probably sort you out if you're a corrado owner. Cheers, Carl

Nice car dan!

I'd be willing to drive there from mine. you free anytime next week? I'm off work for two weeks so perfect Corrado time! =D

There's a black one I see sometimes and a grey one I saw around the back of Rayne... I actually pulled over and took a damm good look at that one. Stickers on the windows etc...

I'm in Wickford. My GF is in Braintree too + I commute to work in central London too so anywhere when I start my new job. Tell you what! I'd be willing to drive anywhere in the orange line.... or jump in a tube around London! Red area is CLOSE to my whereabouts... Cheers all

Hi guys, I've messaged the two people added to the 'Corrado's near you' map but surely there are more than 2 people with corrado's in Essex? Is there anyone with a G60 or VR6 that wouldn't mind taking me for a spin? (I'll give you some petrol money and drive to you!) Would be great to ride in one. Regards, Carl

Some of you may have seen my other post regarding buying a red valver. I've now (as you do) started browsing different engines. So what are the running costs of a G60 vs a valver?? (Tax, Insurance, petrol ...for example the wiki says the G60 is better MPG?? ) G60 that has cought my eye http://www.gumtree.com/p/cars-vans-motorbikes/vw-corrado-g60-for-sale-near-mint-condition-well-loved-and-cared-for-99k-miles/1066731298#photo-content Valver that has cought my eye http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-CORRADO-2-0-16V-IN-RED-NEW-MOT-TAX-SERVICE-HISTORY-BBS-WHEELS-PUSH-START-ETc-/131206873201?&_trksid=p2056016.m2516.l5255 Also: Edit: Would I be better of getting this VR6 and keeping £1800 for parts ? This seems very cheap- High millage? I hear insurance can be cheaper on vr6's (been reading alot of the forum today) http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volkswagen-Corrado-VR6-/171341960130?&_trksid=p2056016.m2516.l5255

Hi Guys got my old account back so I don't have to wait for posts to be confirmed now!! I can't afford that swompy! Not sure about those gold wheels either bling bling =D

Thanks for the advice all. That vr' is perfect! Now I just gotta get this job, and sell my focus!

Ok so it's been a while since i've been on the Corrado forum so Hello everyone. Unfortunately I had to kill my last cCorrado :( . I needed it daily and it was just becoming too expensive to run as a daily. It was a 2 litre called vikki. I replaced her with a Focus ST170 & to be ohnest, can't wait to get back into a Corrado. I'm not modern car at all! So... I found out I have an interview in London Tuesday wich means no daily car needed if I get the job. Goodbye Focus, Hello VR6. I've thought for a while now If I get one, i'll get a red vr, and just like the little Corrado angels decided to list this bad-boy on AT: http://www.autotrader.co.uk/classified/advert/201304066133447/sort/default/usedcars/model/corrado/make/volkswagen/onesearchad/used/onesearchad/nearlynew/onesearchad/new/radius/1500/postcode/ss129pf/page/2/quicksearch/true?logcode=p Only problem is its, auto! :( . *Anyone out there have an auto Corrado?* Didn't really want an auto but that millage is lovely + the color. *Is that price about right?* I've also spotted 3 Corrado's this weekend. One red VR6 in a garage being repaired/serviced near Braintree, Witham, Chelmsford area but out in the Sticks. lovely motor that has really been the defining point to me getting a red VR. It had 90+ on the clock, worn rear VW badge, perfect black front lip- Nice motor! Black Corrado heading towards Braintree this weekend too. last weekend black corrado in Chelmsford- Black alloys (Needs lowering in my op')

All this raised malarky seems like alot more agro than its worth....

So its just a 3d-er plate? that's metal? So ... I don't get the attraction there?

The plate actually under the car where the front skirt-lip is looked the tasty-est. Just can't find any images!

I've noticed recently that Corrado's with Different or Moved plates look lovely. Here are some examples: Moved: http://www.autoholic.de/images/resized/VW-corrado-6dZa.jpg Smaller Plate: http://carphotos.cardomain.com/ride_images/1/2758/901/6892950010_large.jpg http://img.tapatalk.com/4c6f4cae-0906-e44e.jpg Below bumper move: http://i53.tinypic.com/2nlr4fs.jpg Plate move smaller left position : http://image.eurotuner.com/f/featuredvehicles/eurp_1203_1991_1990_vw_corrado_g60/40118121%2Bw620/eurp-1203-01%2B1991-vw-corrado-g60%2Bcover.jpg _____ I've also seen one where he has the plate on the bumper at the front wich looked the bollox !! Any snaps of that I'd like to see :) C"mon then Rado' crew, Legalities of this?

WOULD it be easy for a mechanic to do without taking the dash off?

Ok thanks guys. I'm thinking test water pump about ball bearings, then change heater matrix anyway.
