Thanks yanmack, found him and sent a message.

Many thanks for the replies and lead. Going to see if I can reach out to the current owner.

Hi folks, I still miss this car and managed to track down the plate that was put on the car when I kept the original plate. Anyone know where N621YSA is now ?

Guys, Still keen to track down my old storm if anyone has a lead.

Guys, Anyone know where my old storm is now ?

MikeVR6, You did that. Its back to 2ft of snow again up here and had to take the Boxster to work today. don't think I went above 30 mph. There would have been none of that nonsense with the Corrado.

I miss my storm

Just sold my storm but enjoyed the time with her and like yourself, may be back some day. Aberdeen has more storms than anywhere else in the country!

MikeVR6 Thanks and yes mixed feelings. Hopefully the new owner will start up a thread that I can keep an eye on but that may not be his thing. Regarding another one I'd have no hesitation but I would make sure I had the funds set aside to get any work done shortly after purchase. Otherwise there just seems to be a million and one other things that end up taking priority. ---------- Post added at 8:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 8:54 PM ---------- MikeVR6 Thanks and yes mixed feelings.

Guys, Looks like she has gone! I just removed the advert from this site a few days back deciding that I was going to keep her until I found the cash for the respray and then two days later received a call from the chap who showed interest earlier saying that he had decided it had to be a storm after all. So it looks like that's it. Sad to see her go but also pleased to see her moved on to an new owner who already has a respray lined up. I also asked that he tries to keep a thread going on this site so that I can keep an eye on her. ---------- Post added at 7:52 AM ---------- Previous post was at 7:48 AM ---------- Question now is can I start a Porsche thread or is there no place/interest for that on here?

C5OEM, It's got to be the house! Have you seen the post on here from the original and only owner of a storm with just 45k on the clock, can't wait to see the pictures for that one, thought mine was pretty original, low owner and milage but this new one wins that game hands down. As for mine i've decided that i'm definitely not going to lower the price and will only let it go if I like the sound of the new owners plans. If that new owner never comes then hey ho I will just keep her and see if I can find the cash to get the bodywork back to mint.

Welcome. One owner storm with 45k, that's the best stats I have heard on here. Look forward to some pics. Regarding your abs issue I had the light come on a few months back although no locking up, had the sensor replaced and been fine since.

Mikevr6, You are right, the problem isn't that I have too many cars, it's my house that's too small. How do I spin this so that the wife feels like she came up with the idea to start looking for a bigger place?

Just had a look at the "how many left" site to see how many storms are left but the result doesn't look right to me, only has around 20 listed. I had a chap from this site ask me for some details on my car a while back for his register, would be good to know just how many of these things are left. My guess would be around 100 in total. The weather up this way has been great the past couple of days, very spring like and just loved the drives to work. Started to talk myself into keeping the corrado again. I remember reading C5 OEM's thread when he was thinking of selling his car and thinking just make up your mind but I now feel his pain.

Thanks guys. They really are nice cars and as they were saying on top gear the other night a classic car has done so much better than money in the bank over the past few years with the added benefit that we just love owning and driving them! Kind of surprised and a bit disappointed that the corrado doesn't seem to have the same standing in this area. It's such a great looking car and just brilliant to drive and I would definitely be keeping mine and getting her back to A1 condition if you saw top models selling for 10k but you just don't. Will this change or is this a benefit only enjoyed by the more sporting brands.

Guys, Came close to a sale over the past couple of days, nice chap who is now using this forum to help him fine tune his requirements and find a car. In the end we couldn't agree on a price and I'm not sure he was that fussed about going for the storm model so not to be. Anyway that's the 911 in the garage now and can't wait to get it back on the road. I know this isn't a Porsche forum but I thought I'd load up a couple of pics of the porsche when I went to see it in the storage facility before it was transported over to the garage.

Thanks again folks, I kind of expected most of the feedback to be in line with clumpy1 and pretty sure that if it does sell that I will have that regret feeling, but if I'm honest my other motors are going to keep me skint for the rest of my days and the corrado would probably always be at the back of the queue so better just to find a good home. Would be great to keep an eye on it via this site it's such a good forum. Sounds like the money isnt miles out although my location might be! lets see what happens.

Thanks for the replies, I'm probably going to have to find a buyer this time round as I really don't have the space, even if that means sticking it on pistonheads or ebay but going to give it another month or so on this site first just in case. I do want it to go to a good home and i am open to offers. I do however have this nagging doubt that these things will start rising in value one day and rather than just giving it away which its close to as it is, I might be as well just finding a garage somewhere and forget about it. Thoughts welcome?

Guys, Again not had a single enquiry. What's the story?

Thanks guys, The mileage is 110K and it is a pretty genuine car and one of only 250 made don't you know! The 911 isn't the turbo model it's a 3.2 Carrera and I've owned it for 20 years now.

C5 OEM, Thanks bud.

Guys, That's her back up for sale as I simply don't have the space with my other baby (photo link attached) coming off show at alocal museum in two weeks time. Posted the storm on the classified section at 3.5k ovno and really hope it goes to a true enthusiast. http://www.flickr.com/photos/78939740@N06/sets

jlewisd1964, Good find and Aberdeenshire seems to be the place for Corrados!

Tempest, Great find. I want I want I want!

robo22sri, Now sorted thanks anyway. c5 oem, Happy to talk if you are interested.
