A good 500 miles to run it in.

 

What garage did you use.

 

What kind of corrado is it? Assuming a G60, what did your rado come with? Leather, alloys, history etc. What is the condition of the paint, and engine etc etc.

You shouldn't take the car over 3.5k revs for 500 miles after the charger's been serviced.

Well,

 

I paid about 1K more than you for a G60 with 68K on the clock & cream leather (yummy). So that should give you a bench mark - it's all about condition at the end of the day.

 

For example, I'm a bit dissapointed with some of the paint now in that it blooms very quickly (needs polishing every 2 weeks).

 

I'm thinking of having the top half of the wings and doors flatted and resprayed or laquered (its a pearlescent), but I have no idea of cost.

edd- i can recommend vws in marsh barton for mechanical work & kynastons for body work also in marsh barton.

get their nos. from the phone book.

 

get down :afro: there & talk to these guys they are enthusiasts & know what they are doing.

 

if your'e lucky they may have a corrado or 2 on the premises too.

crdo16v, I went to look at a Rado in a place in Marsh Barton that reckon'd they were a Corrado specialist. They had 3-4 rado's in at the time but not one of them was any good :(

walesy- unfortunately the "newest" rado will now be 10 years old & unless you can find a low mileage "minter" will have seen a bit of life.

lets face it rados are'nt normally used for posing in either so will have usually exceeded 70 mph on one or two occassions :lcop:

 

specced-up low mileage, one or two owner cars are now getting very rare unless you can get to corrado heaven in a parallel universe where vw/karmann are still making them as we speak, blimey is it time for my medicine again so soon? :nuts:
