Auto Express magazine describe it as "Regarded as one of VW’s best ever drivers’ cars". The VR6 model was listed as one of the "25 Cars You Must Drive Before You Die" by the British magazine Car. In November 2003, in Series 3 of the relaunched Top Gear, presenter Richard Hammond identified the Corrado as a future classic, "a kind of classic waiting in the wings... I think it's really rather special... the result is fantastic."

The Corrado was originally conceived – unlikely as it sounds– as a possible successor or even a competitor to the Porsche 944, although it’s likely that this was just lazy journalism on a slow news day. It was never going to compete at that level but the forward-thinking styling (the VR6 was described as a ‘chunky coupe’ and a ‘capable muscle car’) coupled with the fact that it was a serious driver’s car that could seat four and had a boot just big enough for proper family use was a brave departure from the zillion-selling Golf GTi.

The VR6 engine was unveiled at the 1991 Geneva Motor Show, initially as an option on the Volkswagen Passat. The ‘V’ is a bit of a red herring, because the narrow-angle V6 is as much a straight-six as it is a traditional vee-six, engineered for transverse installation. With a 15-degree angle between cylinder banks and one cylinder head, the 2861cc engine was good for 190 hp.

Somewhat unfairly perhaps, the VW Corrado slipped into the same category as the Ford Probe and the Vauxhall Calibra, but while these two lemons are long forgotten the Corrado remains a late 80s/early 90s coupe that was cool and is still cool. It was a car – especially the VR6 – that was bought and driven by actual drivers rather than yuppie show-offs who preferred the M3 or the Porsche 944 simply because of the badge on the front.
