Bojmobile 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Hey guys, was online and found this rather nice review of the Corrado - prices might be out a wee bit I reckon - or maybe I was just fleeced! Hope this hasn't been mentioned before. http://www.rac.co.uk/web/carbuying/car_ ... ID=2002777 Like the closing comment :- "This coupe is sadly missed by car enthusiasts everywhere. With Volkswagen still not showing any signs of developing a successor, this car has classic written all over it." Nice 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CazzaVR 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Nice review :) Agree about the prices- those are low even in today's poor market. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joebloggsVR69 0 Posted January 22, 2006 ...as much as £3,000 for the last 1996N-registered models. :cuckoo: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted January 22, 2006 Yeah.. think they've been reading Parkers, etc for their prices! They always seem to be way off on the Corrado. Great review otherwise though! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
corozin 0 Posted January 22, 2006 You are correct. All the trade guides have slashed valuations on Corrados in the past few months. The mainstream motor trade aren't interested in them any more as they're too old. However, that doesn't mean that the market value for even late 96N cars is now only £3k (top examples are still changing hands at £5k+). It just means that a main dealer or trader will give you sod-all in trade. John Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DaveStorm 0 Posted January 22, 2006 Is the black and white pic they use 16v's car? Looks like a similar reg no, he'll be chuffed if it is! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Furkz 0 Posted January 22, 2006 3k would be what their worth on paper,,, doesnt take into account the supply or DEMAND of the particular car... E.G something like a fiesta could be worth 700 but becuase its soo popular for example it could sell for lots more... there are cars out there also which sell for lot less then their worth as their is no demand for the brand/car... parkers or RAC doesnt take into account the diversity or demand of the car within the certain season,,, obviously a corrado would be more appreciated during the summer months and could demand a better price/value...

Trig 0 Posted January 22, 2006 It's a good review but the marks out of 10 don't reflect that very well IMO. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
PhatVR6 0 Posted January 22, 2006 they've never been a mainstream car, and never will be. Price guides will always bee a mile off a collectable or specialist car, dealers just don't see these sort of cars in the same way that enthusiasts do. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted January 22, 2006 1994 VR6s are only worth £2k, eh? I'll offer Kev £3k for his because I'm nice like that :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
