1989 Volkswagen Corrado 16v review from Australia and New Zealand
"Fast and pretty yet economical and reliable!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear callipers are starting to stick a little, but it's due for new pads anyway.
General comments?
I'm wrapped, everything is functioning beautifully, and in excellent condition for 11 years of use.
Fantastic chassis/steering, a nice engine but it needs to be worked hard.... sometimes I miss the low down flexibility of my old 8v Golf.
