New car time soon...

Recommended Posts

In a few months i will be looking for a new car to buy after i sell my 16v corrado.

 

But i cant decide on a VR6 C or a g60 Corrado / Golf ?

 

Which is gonna be the best and most reliable engine to have. Had my 16v for 3 years almost and havnt had a single thing go wrong with it really. Not bad for a car thats done 159,000 miles.

 

Fancy a g60 but are they really as expensive to service as everyone says. i do about 10,000 a year which mostly consist of 5 min journys (to work and back and the odd 30 min run lol :?

 

I will have about £4500 to spend.... What u think??

£4,500 Will buy you a nice G60 and personally I love the G60 (Hence owning one!) However mine is a second car and yes I find it expensive, but thats probbly because I've spent alot modifying it.

 

I do think though on the amount of mileage your talking about the G60 is going to be an expensive long term option. You can't just take them into any old garage to have work done as they need to be looked at by those that know what they are doing.

 

I think personally if you want a runaround less hassle car the VR6 may be the better option! However you'll need a responce from a VR owner to tell you about running costs on them!!

I have 2 VW specialist local to me so getting it looked at and serviced isnt a problem really. Wouldnt modify it and with me having a corrado at the mo anyway i just need one with a less hastle engine and if somthing goes wrong with the engine which is cheeper to fix. Also will i get better MPG with one compaired to the other?
