Looking into buying a Corrado - Help please!

Recommended Posts

I've decided the time is nigh, to ditch the MK2 Golf GTI that i've cherished for the last couple of years, and get something else. One of my choices is a Corrado VR6. I'm looking at spending a maximum of £7k really, so i was thinking of maybe a Storm, otherwise a late fairly high specced non-Storm. I want to go for as low a mileage as possible, prefereably around 60-70k. Is there any pointers that you lot can give me on what to look out for, plus i'm after some interior pics of the Storm if anybody has any!

 

Thanks in advance for your help

If you want low mileage (mileage isnt a issue on a VR6 as the engines arent run in until 80k + miles anyway!) then forget the storm.... as low mileage storms go for silly money....

 

Do a search on this forum and you will find lists, tips, etc on what to look for...

as scott rightly says storms especially low-mile ones go for silly money,however for your £7k you should be able to pick up a decent spec,late-letter probably leathered up VR6......though if you look thru the "cars for sale" section i'm sure you'll spot rory's vr6 which i understand is within your budget and near your mileage limit.......though doesn't have the leather

 

the only main differences between a storm and a "standard" VR6 really are the storms had leather as standard(beige with the classic green paint and black with the mystic blue paint)BBS solitude alloys(also used on Golf colour concepts and VR6 highline golf's)a standard fit Sony CD-tuner,colour-coded grille and of course the storm badging :wink:

 

 

now it is possible to actually buy a higher-spec corrado than a storm and of course apart from the mega-rare campaign :wink: 8)

 

as andi or Pau1 will no doubt post at some point :wink:

 

as both their VR6's have electric recaro interior in grey leather 8) and andi also has A/C and headlight washers
