WHY I bought THE WORST VW CORRADO VR6 I could find? 

If that’s the worst one you could find you’ve not looked properly. I currently own 4 VR6 Corrados and this looks nicer than 3 of them 🤣

Great buy andrew! I have two corrado,s a 1.8 16v and a g60 but I'd love a VR6 some day .they are great cars if a bit frustrating to find parts for sometimes. Btw the windscreen outer seal is available from vw classic and you can buy the complete 4 piece kit on Ebay ( and it's good quality)

Looking forward to the iD4 review also and it would be great too see underneath the Corrado :)

Have really been looking forward to you starting articles on this classic. Now we have seen it don't start that engine till all is sorted. Did you say you will be removing the engine & sending it to a specialist then sending the prepared rolling shell to the pait shop?

A proper classic Corrado. Love it and the video too. Owned a G60 model 20 years ago wish I had kept it now. Vince at Stealth Racing is the man. 👍

Great car! The red VR6 front emblem was OEM on -92 and -93 cars, -94 and -95 had silver, the same goes for the rear VR6 emblem. Here the OEM stereo was Philips Gamma series. ill never sell my Corrado!!

An old VW, rattling incessantly? Ha! My '83 Rabbit GTI sounded like this thing - by 1984!

Epic classic, brilliant content for the channel and definitely a keeper. Looking forward to the journey ahead with this one Andrew. Hope all is well mate.

I want to see as many vids on this renovation as possible. Still hanker after a Corrado so would love to see how this progresses

If you take the sump off you’ll find pieces of the timing chain tensioner guides laying in the bottom if it’s properly gone

Always loved the shape of these. Back in the day I test drove a few, but they were all rattles especially in the interior. That was when they were only a few years old. Put me off them entirely. I just preferred the Golfs. They seemed much better made.

Love the Speedlines on these think they’re right up there with some of the best oe VAG wheels. Speedline Challenge 2110 are a good option if you wanted to go bigger. Bit like MK2 Golf’s in that the optional Recaro’s are a great addition really increase the sense of occasion.

I had one from new, was glad to get rid of it after 18 months, all revs and no go, I think my 405 diesel peugeot was as fast (I had both at same time).

great classic,can not wait to see what you do.

I’d look at the camshafts and a shrick inlet manifold as a good route to OEM+.

Ratling from behind? Check the rear shelf… was ratling on mine it was the rubber that had dried out

Wonderful cars. The VR6s were very pricey when they were new.... about as. Inch as the Audi TT 245 which came out a few years later.

Hi Andy. I've had 263 cams and a remap from vince at stealth. Makes a massive difference . Car kicks kicks out a healthy 217bhp.

Love the car. Love the content. A future classic there. Some nice bbs 16s would look amazing.

looking forward to this Andrew...I think you will reach your subs goal with this as a project car playlist...good addition. I had a lovely mk3 golf vr6 3door in reflex silver pearl and it had schrick camshafts which made the best of a lovely engine...definitely recommend them.

Timing chains are not that hard to do. pull the engine and get after it! 😃😃😃

Can't wait to see this projects journey.id personally go totally original but maybe lower it slightly. Very cool car 🤙

I’ve a 2007 Passat 2.0l TDi 4Motion, 129k miles, 3 owners, numerous mechanical niggles including a v minor oil leak on the engine block, including rust above the windshield. Would love to keep and bring up to spec…spend the cash of sell for peanuts?

His paint looks factory mint compared to mine. 😅 him calling it a sh*t box makes me want to cry about mine.

Love the shape.

I wouldn't even turn it on if the cambelt have never been changed nevermind drive it

There is only 3 up grades that car needs besides the maintenance on the motor and body and interior stuff. Nice set of coil overs bbs wheels and nice exhaust

I used to have a VW Corrado 2.0 16V 94M it was unreliable. When I stopped at traffic lights steam rose up from the bonnet. VW dealer couldn't fix it.

After all these years it still looks so good! Looking forward to this project. I also like how you're just like "the chain could snap at any moment, but let's go on a spirited drive anyway" 😁 irresistible haha

It’s shed, surely a MK2 GTi big bumper would be a better buy as a current/future classic?

Great video, first one I’ve watched in a long time of yours. The reason, I see a lot of Golf R or GTi comparisons and brand new cars all the time. Good to see some variation!

Even in the condition it’s in, that car is awesome! It’ll be great to see it restored and driven. You’ve got your work cut out for you, but it will be a journey worth taking! Wish you the very best in what will be a great series of videos in the restoration of such a classic beauty! Love the color, too

Actually I really like this car and the VR6, loads of torque and a 6 speed that’s fun to drive.

Looks like a solid base for a restomod, at least the boyracers haven't got at it and ruined it. Cheap is to fit led lights to the interior, gets rid of that nasty yellow interior lighting. First mod for me would be to get the wheels refinish in the correct colour. Will look forward to future updates.

As there's so much wrong with the paint & I'm assuming that it's an engine out job to do the timing chain is a colour change an option?

I owned a 2L 16V many moons ago and unfortunately it was the worst car that I've ever owned. I wish some one had warned me about the sunroofs! because I just read the magazine reviews and that was never mentioned. This one looks to have original front wings going by the panel gap between door & wing? I shall be watching this with interest to see how much it costs etc and will try to limit any negative comment, as I realise that most of the rest of you are enthusiasts!

Great video, great to see you doing the older stuff again. Interesting as I may be spending some money next year on a modern classic. Looking forward to seeing more 👍🏻

Great video👍 I’ve had well over ten of these great cars now and still have one today, just sold a lovely storm which I miss already but still have an early vr. As for oem + plus mods I’d get stealth to drop in some 263 cams when the head comes off and if you can find one a shrick or vsr manifold, oh and a bmc carbon air intake😁 Good luck👍

Love the Corrado you just can’t beat the noise of a Vr6 👌 I look forward to seeing the progress on this one. I’ve noticed you have a car business in Birmingham not that far from me, do you do in depth car health checks? My cabriolet is mot exempt and could do with her having an inspection by a professional.

Love it and from a distance looks amazing - as an OEM fan as close as you can get to original will require a fair amount of work but really worth it and can see why you didn’t pass it up as overall so clean. Springs and shocks possibly tired will need replacing and not sure how many suspension bits are interchangeable with a mk3 Golf, from memory a softer set up which suits the relaxed nature of the vr6 power :) looking forward to seeing more of the journey 👍

Had 3 vr6’s . 1 odb1 and 2 obd2’s . Loved them . I remember a lot of chat about new timing chains failing and some sourcing a Porsche one instead (cannot remember which model). Still miss my mulberry highline golf.

Cant wait to see this project developing - hope there arent too many unexpected horrors hiding

Maybe put in the leather seats

Rattles were my bugbear too. Spent ages searching out rattles in my Mk2 Golf GTi. Got them in the end though. Great vid thanks but boy Its got me missing my Mk4 Golf V6 4 motion. Maybe a subtle lowering using standard shocks but a shorter spring. I once fitted new Schnitzer lowering springs on a BMW with excellent results. Car looked nicely lower but ride comfort was not compromised.

Classic. Love the green. Looking forward to seeing what you do with it!

Cant wait to follow the progress Andrew. Love the rado, I had my inca blue G60 tweaked by JMR and then charger ported, uprated and mapped by G-werkes. Great car. Then i bought a Vr6 which combined with a bmc made an absolutely gorgeous sound. It ended up with a rotrex charger, meth injection and a map by Vince at stealth. Loved the twilight violet colour and rh zw1s. The Audi tt 312mm brakes were an easy upgrade and I retrimmed the headliner in alcantara and it made such a difference to feel of the car inside. Used to Spend many hours on the corrado forum, great source of knowledge as you'll know. Look forward to the progress 👍

Sold my Corrado VR6 last year as the parts are getting ridiculous on these, shame but same for any rare classic

Get on the corrado forum and have some deep pockets. Sold my storm a few years ago some strange bits cost loads of money

7:58 Haha made me chuckle that comment did. Looking forward to seeing the progress....

Great video Andrew as always on a truly classic VW! As you so rightly say, what's with the fake exhaust sounds on today's cars? This sounds better by a long chalk! Wishing you great success on the restoration. Please keep us posted on developments. Regards

Unique wee cars ....a sound investment especially when you get through the work planned ....Just imagine what these will go for in 10 years time .

Great to see a classic back on the channel .. That engine sound is awesome .

A volkswizard episode preceeded by a Ford advert, SACRILEGE!

Nice project you picked up there! Good luck with restoring it 🥰 I would love to pick up one of these too one day

Thank you for showing older interesting car.

Ah the dream car from when I was a 17 year old boy! Love it mate 👍👍

Nice following with interest my L reg VR is spookily similar in terms of work required

What a fantastic project Andrew, Hopfully the subscribers will escalate, love the channels classic content, my go to for Mk5 inspiration. Maybe one day.

Too many commercials in a short space of time.

I'm looking forward to watching your restoration journey with the Corrado. 😁👍

It’s nice the owner was honest. I bought a golf mk4 recently and seller was honest down the sunroof sometimes catching when closing. Enjoy mate

Very interesting . Looking forward to further episodes

Fantastic car (had a Golf VR6 in my youth) and a great time to buy one. Look forward to the restoration.....

Oh those days will never return sadly, how will cars like this run on modern fuels I wonder.

Always wanted one good choice Sir. Looking forward to the uploads.

Just about to start having my corrado restored. It would be good to see an update video on the progress of this one :)

Fantastic project, loved that so much. Thankyou Andrew 👍

Great cars, loved my VR6. Looking forward to this project 👍🏼

I love this car and it’s engine, you have to do an exhaust and cold air intake to release those wonderful noises🔥

Looking forward to seeing progress on this.

The Corrado is definitely a future classic, really well proportioned and good looking car. Looks stylish and understated in this colour too. Looking forward to this series.

I've found adding some sound deadening (dynamat etc) to the back of trim panels as well as the metal panels helps eliminate rattling. I own a rattle-free Aygo...

Nice video Andrew , rattles and creaks drive me bloody insane

Very interesting mate very.. I've always really liked the shape of it like the golf 4 in some respects keep it stock though be great to see it like it rolled out 25 odd years ago. Looking forward to the update vids keep up the good work it might be a money pit right now but a few blisters and even more swear words and this will be a silk purse

Meatloaf 🤣👌

Great project. Look forward to regular progress videos.

Nice to see a car that’s different and it will be nice to follow this journey. Good video Also Is it me or does the look like a young Neil Morrissey aka the voice behind Bob the builder?😂

Brilliant Video mate, the most understated modern VW, that seating position is the best! Glorious engine note and very good handling just With Koni sport Yellows

cant wait to follow this refurb!! i love these cars and many a time i have considered moving my MK5 R32 on to get one!!

There is a white 92 Passat GL VR6 with 120k km selling for 4900 euros near me in Brussels. I'm hesitating to buy it... I already have a 89 Passat GT 16s in red in Portugal (it was my dad's) but the VR6 rumble is calling for me 😁😁😁

Epic! Remember when you was on fifth gear with one....

My neighbour has a VR6 and keeps saying I should buy it.... same colour as yours too.

Great to see a corrado again Andrew after so many years always liked them and still have my sales brochure from back when I was at school and went to my local Volkswagen garage and sat in one Be lovely to keep the green and silver wheels freshen the interior and go over it to make sure is looking good and running right agree about where we have gone with modern cars looking forward y seeing this come back to life

Extremely good point about service history! If only more people understood it's importance to the value of the car!

Should have got a storm

I so dearly miss my Corrado! :(

I say.... Andrew. I spy with my little eye something beginning with ID.4 (or 3?) charging in the background. Look forward to that review.🙏 We never got these in the antipodes. I don't have much to offer apart from an assumption, post some work that'd be a sweet engine. Anyhow, I like the hands (gloves) dirty stuff as well so look forward to this journey. 👍

I loved my Golf VR6 Highline. N111 VRG rest in pieces

Really interested in how you move forward with this car . Great content as always👍

Stealth should do a collaboration with the wizard on this VR6 engine 👍🏼 Would work out good for both parties👌🏼

Now... That's a car!

I love those cars....and i love that colour....keep going till u get it right👍🙂

Bilstein B12 suspension kit is great for the road. 288mm late Mk3 golf front brakes Mk4 rear calipers... And if you can find one, a Teves 20 ABS system from a ‘95 on Mk3 golf is a much better system with four channels instead of just three as standard.

Would love to be able to have one of these or a MK4 Golf VR6 as a weekend toy. Things are soaring in value now..

Great project. I had a Mystic Blue Storm 18 years ago. Wonderful shape, the black leather was superb, great to drive, awesome sounding engine even though it sounded much faster than it went. Loved it. But it broke down a lot - 11 times in 9 months - massive electrical issues. Chopped it in for a new Subaru WRX for reliability. Still miss the Corrado.

i had 3 of these s/charged, vr6 and vr6 storm brilliant cars peerless roadholding and handling. good luck with yours hope to see it when finished

Andrew, could you put a MK4 Golf V6 4 motion engine and running gear into it?

Getting my G60 sorted to sell... damn you, watching this has put doubt in my mind again as to if I should sell or not 🤔😂 Looking forward to following this progress 👍

Please let me know where you can find new seals for the windows and roof. Mine on my '90 G60 needs redone as well

Dream car. Full restoration you got yourself a bargain and a future investment if done back to factor oem plus standards.. best wishes in the journey. Also will you be able to review subscribers cars when it’s safer to do so.. Have a EOS manual 2.0T that will have LSD to make it more fun.
