gsbellew 0 Posted June 16, 2007 Ever since I sold my 91 16v I've been hankering after another one, I finally took the plunge again, and here it is, my 5th Corrado, its a 1990 1.8 16v with 121k on the clock. It needs a lot of TLC, but there is a good car under there somewhere. The paint was pretty faded when I got it, but a going over with a buffer has brought it up pretty well and it looks pretty respectible now, it will do for the minute anyway. Its the most econmical one I have had yet, giving me a steady 30Mpg even when pushed on. Few bits missing from the interior, but I should have most of them in the attic in my spares stash. As it was when picked up: http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n311 ... P60728.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n311 ... P60729.jpg http://i115.photobucket.com/albums/n311 ...

P60866.jpg It could do with a bit of paintwork which I will probably do over the next few months when I get a bit of time, I am undecided on the wheels at the moment too :?
