TheHead 10 Posted July 29, 2013 Hey guys! As a long time fan of the Corrado and now a second time owner (had my first about 10 years ago, but it died.....just bought my second on Saturday), I thought I'd do the dutiful and say hello on the Newbies forum! Now the proud owner of a black 16V model. Wish I had access to a site like this when I had my last one - no doubt i'll be hanging around here looking for hints, tips, and good ideas to get my latest motor as good as she can be! :) Here's a pic....

scarlet_vr6 0 Posted July 29, 2013 welcome to the forum and back to C ownership Mat! I'm sure you'll find this forum a very helpful and friendly place. Certainly looks like a cracker that you have bought. Any more (non-sideways!) photos? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheHead 10 Posted July 29, 2013 Cheers for that :) I'll try and get a few pics taken tonight and uploaded - and hopefully not sideways....the joys of being a newbie, eh? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheHead 10 Posted July 29, 2013 She's currently got a few dings on the doors - two small ones on the drivers door, one slightly bigger one on the passenger door - these should get tapped out with no real issues, hopefully. Interior isn't the best - will need to get the seats replaced and the carpet / roof cleaned up, as well as getting the door cards renewed. Had my girlfriend's brother check out the motor yesterday (he's a mechanic) and he says the motor is in very decent condition for it's age. I'm not going to lie, I know very little about cars and the ins and outs of fixing / upgrading them, but this little beast is going to be an ongoing project, so I'm kinda looking forward to getting my hands dirty and getting her as good as she can be....once the bank account is beefed up a wee bit!

TheHead 10 Posted August 11, 2013 Some fine news, folk! Not two weeks after getting back on the scene with the purchase of a 1.8 16V rado, I managed to pick myself up a VR6 yesterday!! A metallic violet type coloured motor, 91000 miles, L-Reg, very clean inside, a couple of slight blemishes on the body but nothing major. After saving for a bit for a respray, this VR6 should look the business! So chuffed! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
