Hi from Scotland

[kdub 10]

Well finally dipped my toes into the Corrado world. Had a few Golf V6's/R32's in the past and to be honest wasn't looking for another V. Have been looking for nigh on a year for a clean MK1/MK2 but unfortunately the second hand world has turned to crap with lots of cars described as mint needing thousands spent on them. But just happened to browse the right classifieds at the right time and found a members car for sale that looked nice and clean and exactly what I was looking for (even though I didn't know it).

 

So hopefully shall be dusting the roads in the car this weekend as long as it is dry. Hoping to finish of what is a low mileage clean car into something worth keeping for a long long time.

 

Anyway, live in Ayrshire and hope to meet a few fellow/fellowess's and hopefully some further a field when the shows kick off next year.

 

Kev.

Wheels, exhaust, suspension and a whole lot of detailing. Then we will see where it goes from there.

Would be a tragedy if that car got modded from standard!

I saw this obviously too late i travelled down to birmingham to get my g60 just sold my fabia vrs which is going to be used to do some stuff on 60 ie engine out respray and quite a few of spoonfed's lovely carbon.Whereabouts in ayrshire are you I am in kilmarnock.

Awesome car, didn't even know it was for sale, not like me to miss one like that :sleeping:

Some light modding such as wheels, exhaust and suspension isn't going to ruin the car and its all easily reversible :thumbleft:

Very good buy looking at the pics. Told my bro about it and he sent Too Hot a mail that evening but you got there first, we were going to travel up from Swindon thats how good we thought it was. Would have been my second trip to Scotland to get a Corrado as I bought one from Edinburgh.

It is very very clean and straight. Not many about in this condition. Like any 20 year old car though it needs a few bits and bobs to finish it right off but to be honest the most important things are you could eat your dinner off of the underside of the car and no signs of rust. Oh and everything works (bar the heater) but should be all sorted for this weekend.

Spot on. Not into heavily modifying cars, but OEM+ looks certainly goes down well and as you say all easily reversible or changed without to much fuss.

Will do. 40 miles tonight. Took it for a good run, went for dinner with the family now all tucked up. Hopefully get some nice weather next week to put it through it's paces. GoPro HD2 will be getting clapped on it to catch some of that lovely VR6 roar. Time for a nice wee VR6 edit.
