davidwort 0 Posted November 5, 2012 None of these cars is going to give you trouble free motoring,too old, but from years of following owners I can say the fuel and ignition system on the 2.0 16v is horrible, hard to diagnose and not very efficient, they do drive quite well when right though. The vr6 has a more modern electronic system, which is why the fuel economy isn't far off even being nearly 3 litres. The vr6 engine and a number of other chassis differences do make the cars quite different, I'd try to drive good examples of both though as it's not just about straight line grunt in the corrado, each type is a great driver's car when properly maintained.

Stonejag 10 Posted November 6, 2012 You can get 35mpg out of a VR6 if you drive carefully. Trouble is they're so much fun it's almost impossible to resist the temptation :D (one reason I'm adding cruise control...) I average 27, best ever was 36 on a long careful motorway drive and worst is around 18 :oops: I vote VR6, obviously ;) Pretty much bought my car on the strength of the exhaust note and the endless 2nd gear!

Campaign 0 Posted November 6, 2012 G60 gets my vote, but not as a daily driver :) Faster, and more torquey than the 16vs, much lighter and chuckable than the VR6s. But, don't like high mileage (having said that, I had my second G60 for 70k miles, and it only needed basic maintenance, I never even needed to replace the Bosch plugs in all that time :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
