VeeDub Paul 0 Posted December 18, 2006 wicked cheers!! never really thought about a corrado before but i have been looking at them more and more and they seem really cool and sports car-ish if you know what i mean. would really love to know what the interiors are like though cos they look really low down.

Golf looks nice - I'm sure your soon to be C will be done nicely too... check out the buying guide for some useful tips and keep a keen eye on the cars for sale section as this is prob the best place to find a good example!

Jim 2 Posted December 19, 2006 There is a very nice 2.0 16v for sale atm for just over £2000 in the For Sale section! Not quite what you're after but its had lots and lots done to it, and is in my opinion a real bargain. http://www.the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?p=601255 Welcome aboard :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Goldie 2 Posted December 19, 2006 Thatd be Cazza's Valver then, good recommendation. Dont think youd get a better one up for grabs than that at the moment. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blackcat 0 Posted December 19, 2006 would really love to know what the interiors are like though cos they look really low down. Whereabouts in the south are you? I'm sure there will be a forum member somewhere near you that wouldn't mind you having a look/sit/drive in theirs :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bendy 0 Posted December 19, 2006 VeeDub Paul, nice mk2 mate, and welcome!! :lol: hope you find what ya looking for Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VeeDub Paul 0 Posted December 20, 2006 well ideally the most i'll have is 1500 quid but i guess its just finding the rioght one, i've had a good read through the buyers guide and its good to see that there isnt many problems with them. i really need to look at one and sit in it as i was going to get a mk3 polo and once i sat in it i just realised it wasnt for me!! so hopefully a 'Rado is what i need.

VeeDub Paul 0 Posted December 21, 2006 well thats it. my golf went today, sad to see it go as it was looking exactly how i wanted, but the girlfriend said i need a newer more reliable car, and iwant more power. the search for a C begins.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TomB 0 Posted December 23, 2006 Good luck with the hunt old boy, and welcome to the forum. Your golf looks mint by the way, I'm not usually a fan of Jetta front ends, but that looks ace. Cheers, Tom Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
