Welcome to my review on VWs 90's unsung hero...... the VW Corrado VR6, SLC known as Sports Luxury Coupe in the USA, the 90's Coupe that time forgot! Was it the Ultimate Sports Coupe of the 90’s?
This was the flagship VW back in the 90s.
Ive owned the car for 10 years and enjoyed every minute of it. i have done some light modifications over the years H&R Coilovers, 17Inch BBS RS split rims, BBS steering wheel, 263 cams remap and Supersprint Exhaust System, Enjoy the Video i had great fun making it

Good god this is all exactly why I love mine!!! She is hanging out at the garage at the moment for a service.... needs some money spent on the body and would like my engine refurbed to keep her happy. I just can’t even explain how much I adore her. She is the most beautiful pile of metal I have ever laid eyes on! A common problem is either.... people asking if it’s a scirocco or a COROLLA?!?! Rawr

GracieLou TDI i had the same problem people asked me is it a Scirocco, but never a Corolla tho. Btw, i was a proud owner of a Red Corrado G60 and a black SLC. I had the G60 for probably about 8 years and then i sell it to get the SLC. I had the SLC around 2001 and I had to sell it in 2008 before i moved back to BKK :(

I remember very well how much I wanted the 94 VW Corrado VR6. I would take my Jetta in for scheduled service and there they'd be on the showroom floor. Now, in 2021, I'd still love to have a Corrado. The style still appeals to me, actually having buttons and dials for controlling systems instead of high-tech LED screens. The one in this video was obviously lovingly well cared for.

Nice video. I've owned my Corrado VR6 for over six years and absolutely love it. It's so unique nowadays. I have the black cloth recaros in mine. The number of people who come over to talk to me about it is unreal. Many years ago I had a Golf VR6 Highline. It was a better car in many ways. But the Corrado has a character the Golf never had. I would have the Corrado over the Golf if I had to choose between them.

Great review. I’ve owned both G60 and VR Corrados for over 20 year span. Boosted and NA. As much as the VR sound makes men & women get wet... A G60 Corrado weather turbo’d or supercharged will take a lot of cars asses on a “throttle turn”! It’s all about the weight distribution and where it’s at/on the front axels. I’ve burned some quit expensive newer all wheel drive cars on turns in a 30+ year old car many times.. cheers to all love and respect

@@LangersVW I'll have to look into that. I'm just hoping they aren't out of my price range by the time I can afford the insurance. I've been hooked on VR6's since my Dad got a Phaeton 3.2 24v around 10 years ago. That car pulled really nicely and always put a smile on my face. I can only imagine what the 2.9 feels like on the corrado, especially as it weighs less. If I were to get one I'd keep it original as possible as stock power is probably more than enough to keep me happy, and to keep insurance down of course

Excellent review, Langers! In the early 2000s I owned a '95 VR6 GTI and loved it...but always had my eye on the Corrado. This summer I picked up a '90 G60 and '92 VR6 Corrado. Call it a midlife crisis of sorts. :) Here in the U.S. it is the Corrado's 30th anniversary- working on a write-up and would love to include a few quotes and link to your video. Let me know if that's cool. Thanks and looking forward to more of your YT reviews! ~Seth

June 1, 2018 I've owned my G60 for 18 year's now. It's stock I've fitted after market wheels and a new catalytic converter. From time to time I do find better looking CORRADO's for sale. As my g60 needs painting. One of it's previous owners, I'm the third owner. thought that Maaco was a good place to go and have the color changed. The things you mentioned as far as reliability such as a door handles the sunroof have both broken on me the headlights were never really bright but I have found a suitable replacement in the E36 BMW headlamps and the door handles are steal just as expensive as they were when the car was in production while most parts are no longer available through your local dealer. I know you're video was made quite a while ago I would love to know if you still have it ? And see an updated video. Thanks

Really decent review of the car. May I ask what made you move away from the G60 you mentioned owning? With first hand experience of both models would you have another G60 after the VR6? Coming from mk2 and 3 GTIs im fancying one of these more and more now. Thanks for your input.

Art Form hi mate I owned a G60 Golf Edition 1 at the same time as owning this, it was a really hard decision at the time, I needed the money had to many projects on the go and couldn’t keep them both unfortunately. The G60 is a great engine don’t let people put you off calling it a ticking time bomb as I had no issues with my G lader in 3 1/2 years took me a week to get used to left hand drive and the sound a G60 makes is lovely. Mine was modified 1.9 bottom end smaller pulley, Rallye intercooler big injectors, the list goes on I brought it off a friend who spent a small fortune on it, yes I would have another. The VR has a awesome sound track and is IMO more maintenance free IF the timing chains have been done chargers will need servicing and overhauling every so many years that a bill of £500 ish pound chains on a VR your looking at a bill of £1000-1500 but should see you another 100,000 miles. G60s Corrados are probably more rare even more rare in Golf forum. It’s all done to personal taste at the end of the day I didn’t like the cloth seat in rado G60s BUT some did come with leather and some Recaros I love the VR engine lots of theatre and suit the corrado well either I don’t think your go wrong owning. Hope this helps, all the best Langers 👍🏻

Langers VW Thanks a lot for taking the time to reply mate. That's all really useful info. Think I'm going to have test drive a few and see what I like and particularly in terms of the 60 what I can find. It certainly seems the price of either model is high for a good clean example now yet still more affordable than back in the 90's!! Feels like it may be time to live with at least one of these before they go the way of many and become prohibitively expensive to own under cult classic status. Some will say that process in already in full effect but it's not all about money and value. I'm a huge Aircooled VW fan and owner but there is also such a warm nostalgic feeling toward the late 80's to mid 90's cars. Great mk2 memories a bloody good 'connected' driving experience that somehow falls short in so many younger cars. Cheers!

Hi Langers, great video, I graduate from university this summer and will be starting my first full-time job come september. I'm currently the owner of a 63 plate VW Rock Up! and have been eyeing up some VW's for a couple of years to become my first ever classic (modern classic) car. My obsession began with the MK1 Golf, but then switched to the MK2 GTI, but after some digging and a stroll past a local car dealership, I found myself drooling after a VR6. I won't be able to afford one for about a year from now, but I have a few questions. Would you recommend dailying this car, or would you avoid that at all costs? What is a good average mileage to pick up a Corrado VR6? Cheers all the best!
@LangersVW
@LangersVW 6 жыл бұрын
ManicBeans hello mate glad you liked the video, mine when I brought it 11 years ago was a daily, and they are fine being run as good daily just bear in mind it is a 6 cylinder car it’s not going to be the most economical however if driving carefully on motorways van return 35+ MPG parts are starting to become hard to get hold of now and expensive. My best advise to you is what ever VR6 you buy make sure the timing chains are done or money off the car for them to be done it’s very labour intensive job and costs a lot if you can’t do it yourself. The humble mechanic has a great video on ho to do it, also when inspecting the car it’s worth wiping out spark plugs in cylinders 1&6 as these are the cylinders that first have issues due to the design of the engine, don’t worry to much about oil consumption as they can drive a bit of oil there is a limit for that before starting to worry I think it was like 1litre per 1000 miles that VW stated but it was a long time ago hope this helps. I try and get on and do some servicing and maintenance videos on the VR engine when I get chance. Mate you would be disappointed all the best Langers

Hi Langers, been looking at a VR6, it’s in red with black leather interior, heated seats, no rust. Only issues are 109k and timing chain not done yet, and sunroof doesn’t work, besides this the cars in great shape, how much do you think I should be offering?
@LangersVW
@LangersVW 6 жыл бұрын
ManicBeans nice red 😍👍🏻109k is good for it’s age if your not doing the chains yourself except to pay a bill of around £1200 to £1500!!! So that has to be factored in when buying it sunroofs are a common issue second hand cassettes are becoming more expensive all depends on the overall condition and look of the car the history it’s a hard thing to pin point all I know is good ones are starting to climb in valve

Curious as to what mfa oil temp reaches as a high on a hot to moderately hot day. My vr6 is running G11 coolant and mfa shows 118degrees Celsius at times, is this temp dangerous? Heard some ppl say to run G12 instead of G11 coolant, what’s your opinion?

@LangersVW 6 жыл бұрын
Pat Zabron hi mate I take it that’s oil temp mine gets into the 100s a lot depends on how you drive it too, they do run hot. G11 G12 is the same anti freeze they are on G13+ now! Make sure you don’t put to much in as that could cause over heating so make sure it’s a 50/50 mix. What oil you running it with? 10/40 semi? Hope this help regards Langers

I own a vw golf mk3 VR6.... it's the OBD 2....... i have owned it since 1998. it is a December 1995-96 model with larger brakes..... it has been off the road for 4 years just now. long story short, we bought a house... wife thinks house is more important. So we have to do all that first.. my goal is to tear it apart and turbo charge it.... money is no object as i will NEVER get rid of it... that car i bought back in 1998 filled a place in my heart like a child..... i did once think about scrapping it... it made me well up. SO it goes no where. It is my future or forever car... i want to be buried in it

Buy a 3800 V6 Buick instead. Generation 1 or Generation 2. Top 10 engine of the 20th century (wards list). They come with a supercharger option too. They will run well into the 200-300K mile range. Much better cars. I have owned several and a 92 Passat. Yes, the VW is aesthetically sleek and quick of the line, but they fall apart inside and out even when babying them in a California climate. It is the equivalency of the eye candy girlfriend who can't make ice or scramble eggs, has 30K in debt (with nothing to show for it) and clothes that are too small for her to fit into this year because she has spent too much time sipping coffee, sunbathing, and keeping you wooed with her porn star sex. Her job is the daily bunny slipper shuffle. Get a Buick, this way if you get her pregnant, you won't have to sell the precious Corrado and you will be able to afford to support all 3 of you until she decides to leave one day and it is just you and little Jimmy.
