Im proud to say also that ibought the car and all the mods myself - no handouts here :shock: The mods have now officially stopped tho, and the saving for the Corrado begun!! Feel free to tell me what ya think. Oh, you can just make out the arse end of the corrado in one of the shots. Ta Steve Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dan 0 Posted March 6, 2003 Hi again Steve, You've done a good job there kid. Very tastefully done 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve B 0 Posted March 7, 2003 Ooops sorry guys - didnt see the gallery section.. DOH! Probabily be givin 9K for the corrado. Sounds alot, but i think it is a good deal. It is V good condition, will have just hit 50K on the clock, it also has some nice extras i.e BBS, Konis, AmD Re-map, Cat 1 Clifford, Tracker etc which saves me spending the money on them!! Hopefully allowing me to leather her up Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve B 0 Posted March 7, 2003 Cheers for the comments too guys! Hi Dan, yea i tried to do it all tastefully - didnt want anything too lairy, more of a subtle approach! The thing i like is that most people dont see half the things ive done, and think its standard like that! That when i know they are quality mods - when people think they are original :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dan 0 Posted March 7, 2003 Steve B, The car is probably worth 9k, but you should try & sqeeze some discount out off the bro'. :) you'll have to post a few pics of the 'Corrado-to-be'. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Scott 0 Posted March 7, 2003 Steve B, The car is probably worth 9k, but you you should try & sqeeze some discount out off the bro'. :) you'll have to post a few pics of the 'Corrado-to-be'. £9000 ? - I didnt think ANY Corrado is worth that kind of money these days!!!! :shock: Im seeing storms going for £7k !

VR6 0 Posted March 7, 2003 Got to echo the above really about the £9k! Are you and your brother close? ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve B 0 Posted March 10, 2003 I know what your saying guys - but check auto trader. 94/ 95 VRs with 60 odd K on the clock are going for around 8.5K. Fact. This car is gona be just ova 50K when sold, and is very good condition. Plus it has the full VAG history and my Bro is the 2nd owner - all the history is known. I honestly believe that it would sell privatly for 9K on the open market - if not more. Are you and your brother close? haha - we have our moments!! wee not close enough that he'll loose money for me tho!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Valver 0 Posted March 10, 2003 Sounds expensive - there's a full show Corrado VR6 supercharged for sale on the PVW classifieds for £8.5k!! It was featured in the Golf Mag last month or so, and has been rolling roaded at Stealth with 250+bhp - it's got 17" BBS splits, Leather/Alcantara trim (inc headlining!), Nakamichi/JL music, Audi handles etc etc...lot of car for the money IMO. Receipts for £16k!! I know which one I would go for........ :D 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
too hot 0 Posted March 10, 2003 Steve B, [ I know what your saying guys - but check auto trader. 94/ 95 VRs with 60 odd K on the clock are going for around 8.5K. Fact There is of course a difference between what they are advertised for and what they actually go for. :) I think if you waited a fortnight and phoned the people selling 8-9K Corrados you would find that most of them will still have them. Prices really depend on what someone is prepared to pay.I think if you were to take a late model C VR6 to a garage as a trade in you would be very lucky to get more than 5k for it -immaterial what what condition it was.It is after all at least a 7-8 year old car. :wink: :mrgreen: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
