It's sad how little these great cars are worth now I managed to talk the G/F into adopting mine when I got a Scoob

Have you put her on The Corrado Forum

Free BTTT !

They do handle really well and get comments on a daily basis about how well it looks
Even tho its only a 1.8 16v, its still a nippy motor!! VR6 are the dogs danglies!!
Insurance is cheap on this motor too! great on fuel.

P.S - Pics will be available on Monday!

VR6 is awsome for a FWD NA car, but the 1.8's could be quicker in the twisties as the weight of that glorious V6 could be a handfull. Here's mine BTW
