Portent 0 Posted December 7, 2012 I wandered across this while on the train this morning. Interesting read. Does anyone own this now? My kids love the spoiler too. http://petrolblog.com/2012/11/06/regrets-volkswagen-corrado-vr6/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Billzeebub 1 Posted December 7, 2012 Good little article, I never get bored of reading Corrado related stories!..regarding the Spoiler, everyone I know loves it. Always a talking point. Though at the moment my current Gf is referring to the C as 'the Back to the Future Car', in light of it sporting roofbars and Thule roof mounted cycle racks!..the cheeky lil fcuker.. ..whenever I get blasé about my VR6 I just have to drive an average modern car and Iam immediately refocused on why I love my Cso much..always regret selling, can't imagine a day when I don't own one or want to own one!

Redfox 10 Posted December 7, 2012 (edited) Nice read and nice for once to read an article, where they don't list up a lot of things that goes wrong. We all know anyway. I personally prefer the G60 model, but maybe, just maybe I should also buy a VR6 before the government forbids them ;) In Flash Red naturally! Now, where to park it? Hmmm, problems problems...

Abdul 0 Posted December 9, 2012 5.13 am... Insomnia based around thoughts of buying another rado? God I want one and this article doesn't help. Stunning example the chap had too!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Redfox 10 Posted December 9, 2012 (edited) Now, if only all children were like that, there would never ever be a problem from any wife about having or buying a Corrado ;) On my job, when a bunch of children aged 6-10 passes my Corrado, they stop and simultaneously says "cool Corrado" before they walk on :) A matter of good upbringing. One of the little ones, 5, he for the first time saw the spoiler raising, and asked me: "Is that an airplane"? Priceless... ;) You can guess how that influence a colleague of mine who drives a ford... And when they get to see the spoiler raising or lowering, man that does it. They all forget about their parents bmw's, and cries, WOW! ;) Another day, a little girl commented on my pretty low frontspoiler: "Ah, the is only room for a snail to pass". Don't know if it was actually the spoiler or the speed she commented ;) Abdul: go get it, you know you want one. Now is the right time to buy. Cheers, Redfox.

Abdul 0 Posted December 9, 2012 I hear you but nothing that I've seen yet has taken my fancy. Ill wait for the right car. To be honest having said that I haven't been looking properly due to time constraints (I can never make it to a viewing with the days being shorter lol).

Ralphead 0 Posted December 9, 2012 I recognise most of the places in the articles photos but never saw the car around here. Would have been one to buy (and keep) eh? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
