Ok, so I’m putting this out there to see if there is any interest...
I have a ’95 VW Corrado VR6, sitting (and I mean sitting) in a garage, that I am considering selling.
The Car: ’95 Corrado 2.9 VR6, 2dr Coupe (obviously), Manual, Blackberry metallic, K&N induction kit, Magnex S/S exhaust, RH Alurad wheels w/Proxies – original 5 spokes available, Goodridge hoses. Full Black Leather interior, Steering wheel (Momo?) – original available, Sony head unit, 6 disc changer and speakers – original parcel shelf available. Traffic triangle and first aid kit – present and correct. Mileage circa 80k (I think). Full VWSH and copious receipts and history.
The Bad & Ugly: The car has been sat since February 2009. It hasn’t been run, the battery is no doubt juiced and the tyres are flat. All round, a sorry state of affairs. It got this way because I’m a stupid, stupid man. That February the car was running a little rough, with what I expected was a spent idle stabiliser. So off it went to Raymotors for a look, after a full service at a cost of £313.82, they indeed confirmed it needed a new idle stabiliser, but they would have to book it back in. However, whatever fettling they had done at the garage, meant that when I parked it on the driveway when I got it home, was the last time it moved. Instead of getting Raymotors out to sort it, I parked it in the garage to sort at my leisure, and jollied off and bought an E46 M3. Dope. (M3 also for sale if anyone interested...)
The Regrets: All of them...
So there it is. It’s a great car that I love, but don’t have the time or inclination to resurrect. It would need towing and some TLC, but I there is a gem there to be had.
Thoughts?
Please don’t ridicule too hard.
