Walesy 0 Posted March 20, 2008 Anyone else noticed how many rados are appearing in the for sale section each day? I seem to be constantly moving cars for sale from the mod queue, and i'm certainly not locking many threads due to sales at the moment. I can safely say that the market is more saturated at the moment than it ever has been while i've been into them, which is a good few years now. It seems that every time I come online there's a couple of nice rados for sale waiting to be approved. I can only think that fuel prices have really made an impact. I suppose if you think of it logicaly, on the whole the people that aren't worried about MPG and the cost of fuel aren't the same type of people that want a 12 year old (minimum) car :shrug: - those who can afford to pay these ridiculous fuel prices want newer more expensive cars not 90's VW coupes, so that's pushing rado prices down further and further :confused: :eek: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

12 DEG BEN 0 Posted March 20, 2008 I know what you mean. 9 pages of them on pistonheads. Got to thinking thats a fair percent of corrados still in existance. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
yorkshireone 0 Posted March 20, 2008 Yeah, I remember looking for mine this time last year and there was only around 50 for sale on Pistonheads if that. You go on there now and there regularly 100+. If I had waited a year I could have had 2 for what I paid for mine! :| Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dukest 0 Posted March 20, 2008 think you're right walesy.. i think when you think of it as £20 per hour for spirited motorway driving, then it gets a bit painful... nobody wants to drive a corrado around like a milk float just to keep the petrol bearable.. when everyone is a loan away from a much newer car then its largely only the real enthusiasts/2nd car owners that are going to make other sacrifices just to keep a C as effectively a hobby.. :( Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
