Skills 0 Posted April 13, 2009 Hi Picked up my new VR6 yesterday. It's standard apart from an aftermarket air filter and seems to be in fairly good condition. There are a few minor marks on the paintwork but nothing too serious I don't think. It's my second VR6 as my last one met an untimely end about 18months ago. Been driving a Polo 6n2 GTi in between and can honestly say I won't miss it a bit. Driving home yesterday I realized how much I missed the sound! Here are some pics.

Skills 0 Posted April 13, 2009 At the moment it'll just be replacing a couple of bits of trim and some minor repairs to the paintwork. Would love to get some leather in it and in the future maybe drop it a little and change the rims. Just gonna enjoy it for a bit first though.

Skills 0 Posted August 3, 2009 Just collected some new wheels that'll be going on as soon as possible. What do you think? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Leonard 0 Posted August 3, 2009 Really like those rime mate, very nice 8) Are they 16's? Are you going to lower it all? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skills 0 Posted August 3, 2009 Really like those rime mate, very nice 8) Are they 16's? Are you going to lower it all? They're 15's, exact dimensions of the speedlines. Originally from a Passat VR6 i'm told. Still undecided on dropping it, although really swaying towards saving up for some kw v1's. Would really improve the way it looks but i'm also keen on keeping it as standard as possible. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted August 3, 2009 They're actually an OE wheel for the Corrado but quite uncommon - I never remeber the name of them though. Le Mans or something! :) Either way looks great! :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Skills 0 Posted August 3, 2009 So no need to declare them to the insurance company then!? :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 1 Posted August 3, 2009 Nope! :) Definitely a dealer option :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
