  1. I followed you the other day on my Motorbike & could'nt take my eyes off your VR (quite worryingly ha).....it looks absolutely mint in the flesh mate ! I've owned 4 Corrado's in the past including 3 VR's but not for a year or 2 now & quite honestly after seeing yours the other week (even with your chrome rears on ha) i've started looking around again....which the wife is well chuffed about !! Hope to see you out & about again & if you see a loon waving madly riding a silver Honda VFR.....that'll be me. Enjoy her.
  2. Well just to echo what everyone seems to be saying, i'm picking my 4th one up tomorrow (well the mrs is to be more precise) from the other end of the country. I've had various cars in between my corrado's including a couple of vectra sri's 1 petrol & my latest was diesel, Golf 4motion, Audi S3.....but nothing even comes close to the feeling i get during every journey i make in the corrado. I don't know what exactly it is about these cars thats gets under your skin so much...... other than maybe the stunning looks, great performance, driver feedback or the loads of admiring glances or even stares when people see something a bit different on the road. Anyway i'm back into corrado ownership as of tomorrow....so i better dust off my wallet again :lol:
  3. 2.8 24v V6 giving 204bhp standard if memory serves me right. 8)
  4. I've owned a 2.0ts & a 4motion & although the alfa is a winner looks wise (especially with the teledials) its got to be the 4 motion from a driving point of view particualy with the 4 wheel drive system ready to conquer the autumn/winter roads if you're going to use it most days. The 2.0 litre twin spark is a lovely engine when wound up but the pure low down grunt not to mention the V6 growl is gonna take it every time for me....just my 2p's worth, nice dilemma to have tho' !!
  5. It just bothers me when people don't even know the correct colour of the car....bit illogical maybe but it just gives me an impression of a person/owner straight away rightly or wrongly. Also when they can't even be bothered th advertise it properly, as i think someone already said i've described things in more depth that i'm wanting a fiver for !! Anyway i hope its everything you hope its gonna be, and it does look nice & that lovely 'purple' colour.
  6. Bought my first VR6 in june '06' had it about 18 months & spent as much on it as i paid for it !! Had a very brief interlude with a 4motion :cuckoo: , then had another brief interlude with a corrado valver & have currently owned my 2nd Vr6 for about a month now....hopefully this one will be staying with me a bit longer tho' :lol:

    Chilli Red was a late Golf VR6 colour, went to look at one many moons ago.[/quote:i8ai6dbq] Yeah cheers, thats what i thought aswell....oh well i've got some nice non matching stonechip touch ups on the bonnet anyway courtesy of our ever helpful VW dealers & a previous owner who obviously knew no better :roll:
  8. Sorry mate, i hate critisizing anyones choices as thats the whole point, everyone is different but i always think the lines on the corrado are already fantastic so you only need simple additions to make it look even better & i reckon those wheels are just too fussy.....but hey at least it'll be unique to you. Andy
  9. Whats with the ' Ben Hur ' spikes sticking out ??? NO NO NO NO & more NO'S ....your old wheels suited that car perfectly imo.
  10. Looking awesome as usual..... :thumbleft:
  11. You ain't german are you ?? Got some on order aswell :lol:
  12. Just fitted my ne FK badgeless grille with brand new sparkly VR6 badge to go on it, opinions on either grille are welcome....not sure myself :scratch:
  13. No mate, just leaving them for a bit while my speedies are getting refurbed, they've actually grown on me tbh aswell
