Jim Bowen 1 Posted January 16, 2014 There is a bloke i know who collects classic/nice cars, i say nice as some aren't really classic, but he gets a magazine in the post (don't know which one) and he tells me there is a feature on a corrado Vr6 in it and it sold for £17k. Anyone know anything about this? Says he will bring me the magazine next week so i can have a look. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

coullstar 0 Posted January 16, 2014 The magazine must be very old or there is one insane person out there. £17k is madness. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

seanl82 23 Posted January 16, 2014 Two orginal examples with less than 30k on here in the last week. Both under 9 grand. Cant imagine what a 17k car would be like! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kevin Bacon 5 Posted January 16, 2014 It was mine. The magazine had heard of my neons, air ride, leather covered engine plastics and were desperate to feature it. Some guy then gave me £17K for it. He felt that was a fair offer for my exquisite taste and the work that had gone into it. The real highlight for him, which he shows to all his mates at the McD's carpark on Wednesday nights, is the mustard yellow leather in the engine bay. In all seriousness, I wonder if it's Shaun's VRT Storm? That went for over £15K IIRC. I think there was also another £15K+ boosted Corrado around at the same time?

Jim Bowen 1 Posted January 16, 2014 Yeah, i am curious about it, he keeps asking what i value mine at and he seems to be noticing it more, might tell him he can have it for £8k and double his money :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mic_VR 3 Posted January 16, 2014 I was thinking the same Kev...... About it being Shaun's VRT that is, not your neon's and leather trimmed engine plastics.... I know you've kept those for the current motor! ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Liam20vT 10 Posted January 17, 2014 Woah, must be one hell of a car haha. There is currently a G60 on pistonheads with 28k miles going for 6k. Or this full blown spaceframe racer for 12k http://www.pistonheads.com/classifieds/used-cars/volkswagen/corrado/vw-corrado-racecar-autocross-spaceframe/1965408 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim Bowen 1 Posted January 22, 2014 I thought he said £17000. Must of heard wrong and maybe thinking he was trying to tell me my car isn't worth much. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
