CAR NOW SOLD For Sale: Volkswagen Corrado 2.9 VR6 Storm - Mystic Blue Volkswagen Corrado 2.9 VR6 Storm Mystic Blue. I feel sick writing this, but the time has come to sell my Storm due to trying to raise money for a house deposit :( The car has been owned by myself since 2004, with only 2 previous owners before that. It was used daily and garaged overnight. In October 2008 it was SORN'ed and stored in the garage for 17 months due to relocating and changing jobs that involved an 80mile commute so an oil burner had to be used. The car was brought out of retirement in March 2010 and has been used sparsely since then. It is currently on 144,600 miles and is more or less original apart from being fitted with an enlarged throttle body and benefitting from remap. It has full service history, and serviced annually even when only approx 200 miles were covered. I have 100s of receipts, including ones from the previous owners. The interior is in excellent condition, there are no rips or tares in the leather although it could do with a feed. The exterior is in good condition, although the front end looks a little tired up close due to stone chips but none have rusted. Rear bumper has a small crease, which is just about visible in the pictures. Alloys are in good condition despite never being refurbed. Work Carried Out in my ownership: Recent Front disks and pads less than 1000 miles use Cam position sensor Helix Organic Clutch @ 137k Head recondition @126k Main and secondary water pumps Magnecor HT leads Cam chains @ approx 95k Bushes replaced with PowerFlex as and when required Plus receipts and invoices for thousands more.

I have one too, but is at my parents near Manchester. So would need posting also.

Looking for a rust free rear number plate light holder

Apparently this is where you can buy them from... remains to be seen http://www.autometrix.co.uk/volkswagen/VWmag_outlets.html

I could be a little late and not make the pre-meat. Will it just be a a case of telling the first person that stops us our ticket is on the stand and they'll let us in? I guess if all else fails it's only £5 to get in isn't it? Is that per person or per car?

I'm in! PM sent

Really wish I hadn't clicked on this post! Want, Want, WANT!

Would also be interested in rear number plate bulb holder, roof gutter rubbers and interior door pulls!

I'd be up for a set too!

I've got it at home, will post it here later. He had around 8 shots of mine and wanted £25 to put them on a disk, which was more than I had on me. I thought that was a bit steep really but deffo want a picture to commemorate the 25th anniversary and my first time on a track! Wonder if it’s worth offering him a couple of hundred £ for all the parade lap pictures and then distribute them to the owners at cost price? Although this probably infringes on copyright!

Great day, thanks to everyone that helped organise! Particularly enjoyed the parade lap :D Great to see all the photos, here are a few more...

Great thanks. I'm I too late to be included in the Club Parking and the Parade lap?

Have just become a member of CCGB and I'm hoping go the 25th anniversary on Saturday. Not having been to many shows and never as a club member I don't really know what to expect. I've not had my CCGB account authorised yet so can’t log in to see if there are more details. Can anyone enlighten me?

Do you have the drivers side interior sill trim plastic in back, plus clips? If this is age specific then I need a late one. Are you able to post?

Ok, got off work early and decided to have another look. Mopped up the water that had collected and then went about feeling around the rest of the carpets etc which were all bone dry. Put some talc down and poured some water over. After about 20 mins found some tiny tracks! Tracked it back and a little pool had formed just below the important looking silver box thing (what is this so I can stop calling it this?) The water seemes to be running down the bodyword round or behind this from a seem in the bodywork. See pics. It looks a bit rusty at the corner and its almost level with the door hinge on the other side. The bodywork looks to be in good condition around the hinge. So where do I go from here?

Will give the talc idea a go first, thanks. Its not compleatly stripped just the passenger footwell and the carpet is only folded back. Have just had a thought, that becuase there was so much water I guess it could have gone over the seat mount into the rear footwell when driving and as its parked nose down it could be slowly trickling back to the front?

Sorry to drag this thread up again. But I'm having the same issue! My passenger front foot well is soaking. I didn't get chance to look at it for a couple of weeks and by that time it must have been 1" deep :eek: I don't get to drive it that much these days and its always parked nose down, leaning slightly down on the passenger side. I replaced the foliage seal and went about drying it out. Note to everyone else with this problem: Petrol station vacuum cleaners don't work! Managed to borrow a wet/dry vax but after over an hour it was still sucking up water!! So lifted the carpet, took the under glovebox tray out and the plastic cover (over a silver box - excuse my ignorance for what this is) Both bits were literally dripping along with the important looking silver box thing! Pulled back the carpet to reveal the soundproofing/insulation which was holding so much water it must have weighed 5 stone! Went about hoovering the bare floor to get the remaining water up. All dry and soundproofing etc drying on a radiator inside. Didn't look at it for another 2 weeks but found water has pooled again. Mopped it up thinking that its just stuff that hadn't had chance to run down after replacing the seal. Got the mrs to pour water over it while I'm in it to try to see if it was coming in, an hour later nothing had appeared. Fixed I though, only to find a bigger pool a week later. Everywhere around feels dry, I just don't know where it’s coming from. I'm really putting off taking the headling off as I don't get much chance to look at problems and don't want to have it hanging down for weeks and can't even be sure it’s the sunroof that’s leaking!! ps. The water is clear so I'm sure its not from the heater matrix

Paid up, sorry for the delay.
