Bound to be worth loads. Potentially saying Hot Volkswagen. Im sure some companies will say £1000, but actually getting it sold is another matter.

BelfastFumanchu's 16v Corrado pics
belfastfumanchu replied to belfastfumanchu's topic in Members Gallery
lol , well erm MikeVR6 deserves a lot of credit as i bought her of him. Reiger was on when i bought it & was also already lowered. Wheels were Mikes handy work too, Passat door handles & lupo wipers. Other bits n pieces too! I invested in the in.pro taillights and i dont know if you can make it out but i got the side strips are colour coded also when i was having a bit of body work done. Been seriously considering subtle side skirts but i keep changing my mind!..It's a love em or hate em thing with most people i know -
Well I've owned my Corrado for 16 months so it's about time i posted a few pics up of the beastie ! 8) Edit: 11 Sept 2006 And some new piccys at Benone beach on Northern Irelands fine North Coast !
-
Very wrong - unless he is Mad Max or someone like that... but i guess in real life he's really an insurance salesman or something!
-
How much are side skirts roughly anyway?
-
Car stutters and cuts out occasionally

Wouldn't be the cat converter starting to balls up would it? (just a guess... my mates car started conking out and running weak same as you described and was his cat converter) -
New member looking for advice on what type of Rado to buy
belfastfumanchu replied to mk4steve's topic in General Car Chat
If budget is not an issue then i assume you'd want the most sought after type. Hence a VR6. Mind you i have a 16valver and i couldn't be happier. Also go for full interior leather....makes all the difference. (To me anyway) -

Depends on your budget -
Where there's a will theres a way as they say. Always new bits and pieces available anyway. Angel eye headlights for example - a pretty new addition for Corrados.
-
Parcel shelves are no longer made either. Explains the £70-£80 they were going for on ebay recently!
-
You're right about parts becomming rarer Dinkus, but we might be suprised in years to come regarding their availability. How hard is it to get parts for Sciroccos and other old VW's direct from VW? Should be a good indicator of how hard or easy it will be for Corrado owners.
-
Wonder what price a well kept Corrado will be making in 10yrs time. Not just VR6's, but any Corrado. My guess is about the same price as they make today taking inflation into consideration.
-
Opps, sorry - just wondered.
-
http://www.eurotuned.com/vw/new_corrado.htm Can anyone shed any light on this ? Is it true or what.
-
About £9 for a caliper repair kit from VW
-
I had something similar to this happen. Check out my post. http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic. ... highlight=

Neither is a good pic in my opinion, but the first one isnt as bad as second.

What other throttle bodies are there that you could use (that are good) apart from them Weber firebreathers ?
