Pat_McCrotch 0 Posted August 29, 2011 Red one on eBay at the moment but it's a Cat D and probably a little overpriced considering. Might be worth making him an offer. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dubber_g60 0 Posted August 29, 2011 I gotta 8v G60 for sale, mint condition with thousands spent and every reciept from new. Needs a new Engine loom and ECU though, can be yours for £1500. New Tyres, deep dish alloys, Koni adjustable coilovers, full leather interior, Stage four engine and G-werks supercharger and loads more. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
myles 0 Posted August 30, 2011 thats a smart car, but its in the isle of white which presents its own problems. i am looking for something in excellent condition with leather, not a vr or g60. i was thinking 8v because they were newer and i have never had one before. maybe a late model valver ?

bristolbaron 10 Posted August 30, 2011 I wouldn't rule out a 2.0 16v, however the 8v i had earlier this year was awesome. I'd love a minter as a daily. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
davidwort 0 Posted August 30, 2011 Think you're looking for chickens teeth with a high spec 8v, always worth keeping you're options open, but I have to say if you do find a tidy one, the 8v is very easy to live with. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James. 9 Posted August 30, 2011 As an 8v owner I have to agree with David. 8valves as a rule weren't highly specified due to what they were. An affordable run out model. So as a result, leather is seldom seen, unless added later. They do crop up in the full range of VW metallics/pearls though, so VW must have had one last push at flushing the last batch out with aesthetically more pleasing colours. From what I've read, there were only 219 8valves made, with a mix of 2 types of engine code. All 1995/96. They do crop up from time so be patient and a car will find you. If it is an 8v you want then as with any Corrado do your homework first and buy on condition, not colour. PS: be prepared to travel. Best of luck, James.

yacobwood 0 Posted August 31, 2011 I thought it was only 213 made. Not sure where i herd that though. Its also on Wiki so it must be correct......right? :) Brilliant car to drive. You can be very lazy driving it. 5th gear runs from 25mph upto 125mph (not that i ever went that high :() which i loved :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
