vwdubs 0 Posted October 19, 2005 Loza, the Storm was only built for the UK market and of which only 500 made in quote me if im wrong colours that were slightly different to that of normal Corrados. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VW_Corrado Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr.ots 10 Posted October 19, 2005 Does anyone now if the storm was a model released in Germany or jus England?? Can you tell by the vin number?? As vwdubs has already said the storm was only available in the UK. If you contact VW with a vin number they can verify if it is genuine storm as this information is stored on their database. The UK registration document will only list a storm as being a VR6 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mr.ots 10 Posted October 19, 2005 Well, I've been well and truly knocked off the top of the board... Maybe it's time to sell up and get a newer model!! You're not gonna get one that looks much newer than the one you got rob! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
willg 0 Posted February 14, 2006 just thought i would mention i have a vr6 with vin of 0884 so not that special (registered in jan 95) but my old corrado was registered 04/09/89 pretty old if you ask me but as i don't have the car any more i dont think it counts, the engine number was kr129436 but i don't have the vin Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mr.ots 10 Posted February 14, 2006 I actually saw a P reg (aug 96 on) Rado in the flesh today, I'm pretty sure there aren't too many of them around but of course it doesn't mean it was one of the last produced just one of the last registered. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
