VW Corrado 1.8 20v Turbo - SOLD

This is now SOLD. Search for similar items.

Description:

The car is fully race prepared and is ready to go racing with all the required safety equipment to MSA Blue Book standard.

The car won Class C in Superlap Scotland in 2015 and finished a close 3rd in the King of the Hill Championship. Multiple class B1 winner in Scottish Sports & Saloon Championship.

Highly competitive car, very easy to maintain, reliable and ideal for someone looking to get into track days, sprint events or Saloon Car racing and be competitive in class from day one. The car has been developed and maintained to a very high standard, with no expense spared. Words cannot describe the amount of time, research and money that’s gone into getting the car where it is today.

The car was originally built in 2008 by JabbaSport as their Corrado G60 turbo demonstrator. I purchased the car in 2011 and first raced it in 2012. The car has been constantly developed and modified since then. In 2014 JabbaSport installed a new custom built 1.8 20v Turbo engine. The car is currently SORN but V5 available and could be returned to road use if required.

An outline of the specification of the car is:
