I know what every1 is saying but Im looking for a quick sale, if I miss out on his offer it might be months untill I can shift it! It came as a 2.9 auto, went straight to Scotts with 00000miles on the clock and had the 3.2 conversion. It cost 7.5k for the whole conversion (head work, rebore & ECU). It is not an R32 engine as it only made 220bhp when built and I'm sure they make 250bhp? Thanks for the interest!

..one thing tho..........i'm pretty sure it's still only a 12v 3.2 :wink:

it's a 12v as opposed to a 24v...............although oettinger were famous for the (4valve per cylinder head )of the mk1 GTI..........IIRC they didn't make the 12v VR6 lump into a 24v lump........VW did that on the v6-4motion...........the conversion you have is from memory a capacity increase with some minor headwork and cams...not a million miles away from the conversion that Scotts also offered on the VR in the early 90's.......with the Nothelle :wink: ..........at the end of the day tho........its still a rare and sought after conversion

The 24v VR6 makes 201bhp (here in the states) from the factory. The R32 engine makes 240bhp from the factory

Sold it! got £5250 and a mk2 1.1 fiesta, sweet. Going back to the old skool and getting another RS turbo, this time I'll spend the whole 5k on it and have a nice high boostin son of a.... cheers lads, good forum!

[Andi 2,147,483,647]

That'll be £5250.50p then :)

Maybe it was hot for such a quick sale? :roll:

 

But seriously, I think anyone on this board would have (funds allowing) given more for that car. Weird. And to swap it for a Fiesta? Weirder.

[VR6 220 0]

I didn't swap it for a fiesta! I had it advertised for ages (including on this forum) for £6K, the car wasn't for me and when I got offered what I did I thought I can use the fez for work and with the cash buy a mint high power RS which will piss all over the corrado's performance!

Nothin wrong with the corrados they look lovely but thats about it, they r so predictable! I love a big psi turbo that scares the hell outta me everytime it comes on boost lol

[The Leningrad Cowboy 0]

D'ya fancy an Astra VXR then? Bit steep at the moment, I suppose, but I bet at some point they will get heavily tweaked, and that'll be mental!

[VR6 220 0]

No m8 I'm more in2 fords. Think the astra turbos are nice but again not my cup of tea. My girlfriend just got a seat ibiza cupra 20vt and thats a good little car for the money.

I like the old skool motors best, would ideally like a escort cos but they are still way out of my price range!

That ^ would make a very funny sig. :lol:

I need a quick sale due to buying 1st house

 

:lol: So the house idea went out the window then??!! :lol:

I prefer predictable to "where the feck is this RS going" at every corner!! :lol:

 

I think you will enjoy the Corrado when you've grown up mate.

[VR6 220 0]

Yes mate it was a lie lol, everybody else seems to be putting it on their ads! Got my new toy last night and I love it! The Corrado actually went to a mate so I'll get him to sign up to this forum-he's really lovin it! Its down to choice at the end of the day, you boy's slate fords and its the otherway round on the rs forum-they slated me when I sold my last RS for the rado!

Any way my new one makes a proven 238bhp @25psi and is a 1600! Thats already nearly 20bhp over the corrado on paper I'm loving it. If any1 is interested I'll post a couple of pics!

[VR6 220 0]

Plus my corrado was an auto and that kinda takes some of the fun away. Storm VR6 why the fuck have you started to get bitchy? So your saying a corrado is an old mans car or what lol

The corrado got comments everywhere it went and I loved it, but the RS is for a bit of weekend fun

[A20 LEE 0]

The point is the corrado is a sports coupe, the fiesta is a shopping car aimed at a small family. You can make any car go faster than the C for 5K but a fiesta doen't have a the basic suspension design of a sport car, the brakes or the structural ridgity to compete. Take you point about the auto, did you consider changing for a late 16V or G60?. Its the same performance as a std RS Fiesta but a massive leap forward in handling and image. I had a 16V and it was a blast to drive hard. Could of bought 20V Turbos C, think its up for £6k ish. That has the potential for 350bhp..

[samm_cvr6 0]

Any pics of this Fiesta?? I can understand why you sold it, as it was an auto, it was prob more of a cruiser type car and your after something more 'fun' can't say I would buy and RS if I had £5k to spend tho.
