:shock: What? Haven't seen one of them for ages. Haven't you only just got the rado? That's a tough one mate. You can't really compare those two cars.

They are supposed to be beserk cars but.. I should imagine fixing them puts Corrado ownership to shame price wise..

 

I'd take out a credit card or something or a small loan, buy it, clean it up, flog it.. you'll easily make your money back then some!

i think you've already decided mate

in my opinion you'd be a fool not to get it,i know i couldn't turn down the chance to easily double my money,like jimbo says get a small loan get it bought an make some money which u can then spend on the vr6 :D

There must be a way you can buy that car and keep the rado. You'd get so much more than a grand for it. Your mate would understand....

might try selling punto then but that means too costly cars to run???

 

tbh still havent decided......... i am split though 60/40 to pulsar i am thinking they will be same on fuel my mate reckons he gets around 25mpg in pulsar on average he very very rarely puts his foot down and you can tell that with car theres not even a dv or airfilter on it!!

I love turbo'd Jap cars. Really miss ma GT4 :(

 

You have defo made the right decision buying the R mate. They still pull mega bucks if straight and mechanically sound. Take a flick through the ads and you will see good uns pulling 4k on a H-J plate with similar mileage. Just make sure the gearbox is A1 though as they are notorious for having chocolate gearboxes. Its 2nd gear that usually gives in. I once read a buying guide on GTIR's which stated that anybody wishing to buy one should expect to have a new/rebuilt box during ownership, and to leave a 1K reserve in the bank as its that inevitable.

 

Awesome car though. Wouldn't mind it myself.

I'd happily nab the VR off you mate but I'd have to sell both my cars and unfortunately at the moment the black one ain't going nowhere.... All the best with the sale though and I hope it goes to a good home. You still gonna visit the forum though right?
