Hello

Its my first day on the site, looks cool.

I have two corrados.. 91 1.8 16v and a 92 2.0 16v.

but i have done the sacrilegious act of putting diesel engines into them so i can afford to drive them :/

Don't talk to me about the tax - it's an absolute killer - but worth it.

Welcome along, Living in Kilkenny.

 

Tax is extortionate in the South, Im running a G60, tax is €636 per year !!!

[fendervg 32]

Try a VR6!

[diarmaid16 1]

Try a VR6!

 

Ha, I used to have a 16v back home and I thought that was a killer on tax.

 

You need to be hardcore to run a vr6!

[fendervg 32]

That's why the ones I've seen on sale over here are very slow to sell. The tax is just too much for most people.

how much to import to the uk? ;-)

[fendervg 32]

Not sure - depends on what the import tax would be. there are always a few for sale in Northern Ireland on UK plates. If you were to bring one back from the south the tax would have been paid twice.
