For sale is my VW Corrado VR6 I have owned since for the last 3 years. I have just MOT’d the car, and it has a couple of months of road tax left (which is £215 a year).

 

 

Mechanically this car has been very well looked after, mainly by myself. I have a large folder full of invoices and receipts documenting all the service history back to 1997, VW service print-out from 1995-2002, MOT certificates going back to 2007 and any other maintenance work. Also included is the VW leather folder I obtained with a replacement service book and instruction manual, as it was missing when I bought the car.

 

Bad points:

• Bodywork in good condition, but in keeping with a 16 year-old daily used car.

• Missing the window rubber on passenger side (got pulled off by the window when it had some tree sap on it)

• Clutch may need changing soonish (no slipping, but squeals slightly on take-up)

• Can take a few turns to catch when the engine is hot

 

Good points:

• Faultlessly reliable in my ownership

• New KW v1 in Oct 2010

• Refurbished Speedlines in anthracite (one slightly kerbed)

• VGC Hankook Icebear W300 tyres all-round

• Miltek cat-back

• Polybushed front

• Poly & TDI engine mounts

• Sony 6x9s in rear parcel shelf with Kenwood CD headunit

• Good service history (last 70k meticulously by me – I’m an Incorporated Engineer with the IMechE if that makes any difference!)

• Recent (180k) oil & filter service

• 189 bhp on Surrey Rolling Road (June 2010)

• I’ve averaged 32mpg over last 30k miles

• Headlight loom relay and Philips bulbs

• New front brake pads

• EBC Yellowstuff rear pads

• Laserline CAT 1 alarm (with installation certificate)

• Engine pulls really smoothly and strongly throughout the whole rev range. No chain rattle.

• MFA, ABS, ventilation, electric windows, sunroof, mirrors and spoiler are in full working order.

 

It’s not a garage queen or a concours winner, but it’s a regularly used and well-maintained example in good condition and I’ll be really sad to see it go. I am only selling due to our first child and getting a 5-door.
