Well... late black immaculate low mileage unmodified G60's is a bit of a specific.. i'm sure the car you want will come up for sale but be prepared to wait, prepared to travel, and prepared to pay for it!

 

There have been a few very tidy G60's come up for sale on the forum.. so just keep your eyes peeled :)

 

Nice MK1 by the way :)

not many standard g60's around anymore...most have had the charger reworked and upgraded...new pullys etc etc..

 

be easier to find an imaculate...partly modded one IMO

 

or just get a propper corrado and get teh VR6

 

*ducks to miss the abuse thrown by respectable g60 drivers* :roll:

:lol:

 

Back to topic: Yes, you will have to be willing to travel to find what you want. I for one found mine all the way up in Aberdeen (live in Coventry), it was fairly original bar a G-Lader rebuild by Jabba (receipts included), 17" alloys, erm, yes, it was a US-spec LHD Rado, one reason why I wanted it 8) Did enjoy the drive all the way back home again.

 

If you're not too fussed about where the steering wheel sits, you could also have a peek on the German equivalent to Autotrader: http://www.mobile.de

Won't it get full of water mounted like that though? Be more of an Air Gargle than an air horn! :lol:

Fair enough then... 8) My MKI is probably also going to end up as a weekend and "oops, I broke the Corrado again" car... :wink: :lol: :roll:

 

XR3I?!? No wonder you want rid of it for another VW... ;)

 

Ieeeee... not good for the MKII (you just got that edit in before I posted this! ;) ) Did you catch the sods that did that? :evil:

 

Hope you find the G60 you want... 8)

My MK1 16V was a daily driver....had 250K on the clock (MK2 16V clocks wound forward!) when I sold it and still only using a pint of oil a quarter. I don't miss it though. Too many late nights, skinned knuckles, bad language and freezing my butt off in the winter.

That sounds very familiar... Add in a hall of residence car park, and having to put the gearbox into the bike sheds and chain it down a couple of times (when I melted the clutch) to stop it going walkies, and you're about there... ;) :roll:

 

This time will be different... ;) 8)
