Does anyone know how much I should be paying for a maindealer service @ 130k it's only a minor/intrim service. Was quoted £240 @ Volkswagen Maindealer?? & was quoted around £160ish @ a couple of VW specialists. But was keen to keep up with the VW mainSTEALER stamps in the book. Was wondering how much any of you guys out there paid for this service? What you had done & When & where?? Any help will be appericated - Thanks.

I'm sorry CorradoVR6-Turbo I stand corrected... you was right. Serves me right for not investigating further first before I start asking questions. Lol. Bloody hell that means that I have to replace that whole part just because I have a little ding on it DAMN! Thanks for you help & pics guys!!

I don't think it's part of the slam panel? Isn't that above the grill?!

Was the Connolly only a beige option then and not available in black or any other colours??

Anyone out there know what the part# is for the spoiler that runs across the entire front of the car above the front bumper but below the top front grill?? I think this is made of metal not plastic?? Or prehaps someone out there is breaking a car with one thats in good order?? Oh and if you know you can enlighten me on what the correct techical name for this part is?? lol. :scratch:

That's Funny thought there would be some members on here with a Mystic Blue??

Yeah have already checked it's definatly a Storm, thanks!!! ---------- Post added at 08:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:19 PM ---------- Although I would love to know the build date, don't ask me why because i'm not sure, curiousity I guess? Lol.

That's one of the best right there!!!!! :-)

I am trying to get hold of a replacement Vehicle Data Sticker for my car to no avail? When I purchased the car it was not there on the left of the rear cross panel in the luggage compartment in the boot. I wasn't at all tempted to walk away because I knew the car was genuine as I did about 2weeks research on the vehicle prior to purchasing it via VW head office and all the dealers it visited for services and work carried out on it. And checks for accident damage etc as I had it carefully inspected by a professional, so I knew it had not had a rear ender which can some times be a tell tail sign of having no sticker present. I know from having previous vw cars that over time the sticker can lose it tack and can easily come off. So up a hoover it has probably gone?! But what I find strange is that I don't seem to have this sticker present in the front of my service manual either? I know that the service manual is not a duplicate as it has all the revelant genuine first registration details in it along with original stamps for the original dealer which no longer exists. If I had one in my serivce manual all it would need would be a scan job and then I could replace it in my boot or vice verser. But having neither this is proving to be difficult. I have contact a few relevant(?) people @ VW who I have been passed on to but have all told me there is nothing they can do?! Annoying!! Surly there are these details held on a computer system somewhere? You would think? One told me it wouldn't be the first time that these Stickers have been forgotten to be added to vehicles/service books before they have gone out, and having a rather late registered Storm which were of course a limited edition 250 split run of cars apperently a mix of normal vr's run of approximatly the last 500 cars to be built, they were more of a demand and rush to get them out for sale to dealers so probably one that got forgotten? Although what I think is yes they missed it out of the service schedule and the sticker in the boot up the hoover it has gone?! I may nether know? Sorry I know alot of ?????????????????????????????????? So in a last attempt is there anyone out there that can help me PLEASE?? The Sticker contains the following data: 1 - Production Control Number 2 - Vehicle Identification Number 3 - Model Code Number 4 - Model Explanation/Engine Output 5 - Engine and Gearbox Code Letters 6 - Paint Number/ Interior Trim Code 7 - Optional Extra Number The vehicle data 2-7 is also given in the serivce schedule ( Which of course it is not)!!! :scratch: ---------- Post added at 01:15 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:10 AM ---------- Although I do Know most of the details held on the sticker I would still like it present where it should be! Very anal I know! Lol

I know I'm replying on an old thread here but was wondering if over time anyone has managed to shed any more light on the Connolly leather issue? Reffering to the Instruction Manual under the heading General Maintenance on pg.72 there is mention of care on Connolly Leather, but i'm none the wiser on what model(s) had this fitted to them? Just for confusion there is also mention on the previous page, pg.71 of what looks like care of normal/general leather? Anyone??

Would anyone know what sort of a valuation you would put on a Storm model or how much they are worth? (As of 2011). Would it differ much from a normal VR6? I would think it would attract a higher premium for the fact that it is a limited edition model? And obviously it would be dependant on condition, mileage, no. of previous owners etc etc. Although I am aware that there are people out there that would not justify in paying the extra premium for a Storm model! I was just intrested to know. ---------- Post added at 11:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:40 PM ---------- I just realised I probably posted in the wrong section!!! Oh well neithermind!!!!

Okay cheers, yeah they wern't actually gold plated as such, just gold in colour probably plastic?! I'm not actually that loaded lol.

Mine are knackered as well! Well the first 3 settings anyway works on the last setting fine! Quite annoying really! Anyone else have this problem? ---------- Post added at 06:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:50 PM ---------- Sorry newer style!

I take it not? Anyone? Also gold plated inside door lock mechanism and door pin?? I have seen them in the past!!

Yes I would definetly be intrested in obtaining the x3 items, but would like to see the new items next to originals for comparison first though before committing?! Also I asume that the dealer plates bearing your registration no. will be the pre2001 old style charles wright font?

I remember seeing a few years back in an advertisment in I think a PVW mag a company selling these?? Think it may have been either Venom or Awesome?? Can't quite remember now.

Funny my unused space saver is a continental?! Also aren't tyres only given an 8yr expiry lifespan because of the natural deterioation of rubber??

In my quest to try and go back to complete OEM (£££'s permitting lol) of how the car first rolled out the original dealers ( Ian Skelly LTD 66/72 Mill Lane Liverpool Mersyside L13 4DS) was your car first registered here?? I am trying to obtain the original dealer registration plates and any window stickers that were fitted when new! I know I am no longer able to obtain these but if anyone out there still has theres intact I maybe able to get them made up?? Thanks ---------- Post added at 05:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:34 PM ---------- Oh and I forgot to say the dealer is no longer there!!

Thanks, I was wondering out of intrest as I am thinking of trying to go complete OEM of how it rolled out the dealers when new?! £££'s permitting of course lol. Or the tyres that were fitted for the press pictures! I've had Pirelli P6000's on another car in the past and I really rate them as they are a good hard wearing tyre!

I'm intrested if anyone out there knows what the original manufacture of tyres were fitted to the last of the Storm edition cars were? I believe they were Dunlop Sp2000's?? But not 100% sure of this. Could anyone clarify this for me? I wonder if you can still get them aswell? Mine are currently wearing Dunlop Sport Sp01's rear and Dunlop Sp9000 upfront! If anyone has the Storm brouchur or magazine feature or other promo prints maybe you can make it out in the picture? Thanks
