Buying guide? Newbie

Recommended Posts

Hi peeps, currently running a Lupo sport but im after a second car. Obviously a Corrado other wise I wouldnt be here.

Not too familliar with what I should look out for when buying.

I know there were 1.8's 2.0l's, G60 and VR6's, is that them all?

I feel the VR6 is currently out of my price range, but can probably afford a G60, is this a good investment over the remaining ones?

Basically what should I look out for and avoid when buying a Corrado.

Thanks for the advice.

Oh and my budget is currently £1500, I know this is low but all I want is one with 6 months tax and test, and then take it off the road to modify early next year.

Thanks again.

Dan

No probs - with a budget of £1500 i'd stick to the 16v's to be honest... good G60's are hard to find now and even if you do find one for that money it's bound to need a grand spending on it straight away...

 

Good luck with your search and as always with old cars, make sure you look at/drive a few and don't settle for the first one you see!

Also budget in for things that usually need replacing on Corrado's like rear suspension bushes, rear brake calipers etc. Corrado's are difficult to run on a tight budget, especially if you like using original VAG parts! :) Find a sound enthusiast-owned one though and you'll be laughing.
