Goldie 2 Posted June 23, 2015 What a truly awesome Corrado. I love the way we have incredible standard examples, middle modified cars and then bruisers like this which still have the OE feel to them. If VW had ever had a day where the rule book went out the window and they thought 'sod it, lets build a Corrado with the same approach as a G60 limited' then this is what i believe they would have made.. I hope the replacement is a blinder. If you fancy a slow silver Corrado for a Sunday pootle ill swap you... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted June 23, 2015 Nicks spotted this ... http://www.bonhams.com/auctions/22723/lot/307/ I was looking at it thinking 'No way would I pay that' - then saw it is owned by Sir Stirling Moss. OK then :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

clumpy1 11 Posted June 24, 2015 Honestly if it was me it would have to be something very special there are not many porches that will keep up with a 425bhp Corrado. And before anyone says anything that was a deliberate spelling mistake. Good luck with whatever you have lined up Nick I do love this car!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

g0ldf1ng3r 15 Posted June 25, 2015 oh dear nick I fully understand a ham related desire, I have one also that im hoping may come to fruition next year however, right at this moment I am desperately trying to get my mind not to think about if I could raise the funds by selling my VR & valver. oh the headache lol seriously tho, it must be some motor you are looking at...???

coullstar 0 Posted June 25, 2015 After one of these you need something different, in a straight line it would to be something special to beat it but then theres more to a car than just going quick in a straight line. I know what it is and I totally approve of the choice, maybe looking at one myself lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I now want to know what the new vehicle is.... other that manufacturer... :lol: In a way I hate these kinds of situation. Makes me think I've had a good run with the Corrado and it's time to get a big boy car.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
