1995 Volkswagen Corrado VR6
Highlights
- One owner for the past 26 years
- Just two registered keepers
- Comprehensive history file with all works documented
- Mechanically strong with no modifications - all OEM
The Appeal
It's always a pleasure to find a car that's been loved, and it's fair to say this Volkswagen Corrado has been well and truly adored by its current keeper of 26 years.
The vendor has driven this VR6-engined... some 170,000 miles all over Continental Europe. The hefty ULEZ charge forces a reluctant sale, as the vendor comments they would very much like to keep the car. It comes with an extensive history file spanning the entirety of present ownership, and also included is a collection of original parts removed from the car before the fitment of OEM replacements.
We're informed that it drives superbly and once MOT tested, will be ready to enjoy.
