David Winter 0 Posted July 13, 2008 Thank God our Corrados are pre-2001. Just been on the parkers site where you can find out exactly what tax your vehicle will cost in road tax in 2010. The Corrados goes up about £20 to £200 a year which I know is not cheap but a Golf R32 which is a similar modern version is going to be £750 a year :shock: This has got to make the price of older cars like our Corrdos higher hopefully!

Yeah, should drive up the prices of pre-2001 cars hopefully. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted July 13, 2008 and thats exactly what the government does not want,more like to get rid of older polluting cars and not to increase there value :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted July 13, 2008 ok then, what about a 1994 corrado with an R32 installed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CorradoVR6-Turbo 0 Posted July 13, 2008 do you want cheaper road tax Karl? :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bcstudent 0 Posted July 13, 2008 £750 for an R32 seems cheap, compared to some. Take a look at the Mitsubishi Lancer Evo X 2.0 GSR FQ-360....£950! It says that's only for the 'first year' though. I really don't understand how it's all going to work. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted July 14, 2008 rado bluemotion ftw! Looking at just how FAT the Polo bluemotion is, I wouldn't be surprised if it weighed about the same as a Corrado so the engine probably would be pretty suitable! Just looked and the Corrado is just under 100kg's heavier! Not that much at all. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just looked and the Corrado is just under 100kg's heavier! Not that much at all. It must be done! Just not by me.. Maybe there will be an upcoming niche market where they put new engines in older cars. Would probably work out cheaper than buying something new...until gordon brown steps in!
