mtc R32 0 Posted August 9, 2006 Ordering a few parts from VW Dealers and they couldn't believe I owned a Corrado with a year of 1996 ????? They said "I'm sorry Sir this car was only produced upto 1995" I had to show them my LOGBOOK!!! What I want to know is how many other people out there have 1996 C's ?? Are there only a handful ????

Wendy 0 Posted August 9, 2006 There are quite a few owners of '96 Corrado's. Mine is one of them. There was a post on here some time ago listing the registration date date of the 96 models. :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted August 10, 2006 They were actually only produced up to '95 IIRC but they just had a bit of a backlog trying to sell the cars, so some of them ended up getting registered as late as '96. I think there is even a handful of '97 cars around but don't hold me to that! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
OSV 0 Posted August 10, 2006 I seem to think production ended around August '95. I recall seeing a P registered car somewhere, its like the K and L plate Mark2s, late registered stock as Jim says. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

bristolbaron 10 Posted August 10, 2006 there are supposed to be a couple of P's around. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil K 0 Posted August 10, 2006 I've seen a P plate... My new shape Passat is on a 55 plate and I've seen the older shape ones on an 06! It's a crazy world out there :lol: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Supercharged 2 Posted August 10, 2006 Yep - no 96 corrado's actually exist, last ones were on the 95/S chassis... There are at least 3 late registered P platers arounds and maybe an R reg too... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vr6storm 0 Posted August 10, 2006 bear in mind too that P plate is from august 96 so its not exactly a major thing for a C to have waited around a few months longer to be reg'd 1st August 1996............at the end of the day it was still going to have been made no later than July 95 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jazzdevil 0 Posted August 11, 2006 yup, there were a few of us talking on how late-plated some C's were a while back: http://the-corrado.net/.archive/forum/viewtopic.php?t=42159 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
