Recommended Posts

Bought my first VR6 in june '06' had it about 18 months & spent as much on it as i paid for it !! Had a very brief interlude with a 4motion :cuckoo: , then had another brief interlude with a corrado valver & have currently owned my 2nd Vr6 for about a month now....hopefully this one will be staying with me a bit longer tho' :lol:

Coming up on 2 years already. Bought it off Laura / Dave at Stonor Park in (I think) May 2006!

A year, strange coincidence but I used to see Andi's purple corrado driving around redhill years ago and always thought "I really like them" :D

Quite interested to know aswell. If there was a poll to see how many previous owners your C had then i'd probably lose. Log book says 5! icon_eek.gif

2cc has had his 1.8 16v for ages - certainly not from new, but I believe it was only a few years old when he got it!

Don't you mean, is Shaun the only one on here that's old enough to have one from new? :lol:

Got mine in 2001 - 34k on it IIRC - Officially 4th registered keeper - though the 3rd was when I obtained it (was registered in a company name) with 2 lady owners previously on the logs - As new it looks like a bloke bought it for his wife at christmas (27th Dec 1995) and first regsitered on the road 2nd Jan 1996.

 

Can we do a Corrados reunited? K596 UVR - VR6 in Green (Dragon Green I think) - When it was sold it had around 122k on it in 2001 and just had a very large bill for head gaskets - I would be very surprised if it still exists.

Corrados reunited- now there's an idea! Where the hell do I start? :lol:

 

I know Phatvalver on here has just sold my last 16v and I think Gazman (hasn't been on here for aaaaages) still has my black VR. Nearly forgot- Nikki (M15 VW) still has my first VR. That leaves 3 unaccounted for.

I'm dragging up a really old post here so I'm hoping Storm Warning gets this message. I used to be active on here years ago & have just logged on to see if my old VR6 has reappeared when I saw this post.

 

I owned Pearl Green Metallic VR6 K596 UVR from June 2002 right up to November 2014. Last 3 years it was in storage in the garage but still in good condition with 141k on it. I sold it to a Corrado Specialist in Derbyshire who was going to service, MOT and make it immaculate again, I haven't seen it back up for sale so I was just curious to see where it went.

 

Glad to see Storm Warning still has a VR6!
