Robz 0 Posted July 25, 2008 hi everbody!! i'm new to the site, so sorry if i've put this post in the wrong part of the forum!! basically i've always wanted a corrado, and i'm finally in the position to get one, but i was just wanting some advice on this one - (link) http://search.autotrader.co.uk/es-uk/ww ... x_mileage= i phoned the guy who is the current owner, and he says he has done lots of work to it, but has just run out of time and space... he says its on;y done a hundred miles since its last test, but it has now got no mot due to it being sat on his drive not being used. any thoughts on it?? he was very helpful ans said i could properly inspect it with my mechanic mate, but has anyone got any ideas whether i should go 4 it?? cheers, rob. ps - great site!! :wave: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

sprinterVR6 0 Posted July 25, 2008 the red parts are where VW mounted a gun of some kind. Those Germans, man their crazy welcome to the forum :wave: Kidding aside, nice price, good colour and the milage isn't anything to be too worried about. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
