Portent 0 Posted April 18, 2012 only goes to prove that the corrado storms are fetching good money and are highly desireable cars like my old 1985 stone grey audi quattro ur [ATTACH=CONFIG]59713[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]59717[/ATTACH] Lovely quattro. But unfortunately it sold for way less than what it was worth. It wasn't big money at all. It deserved to sell for £1k to £2k more based on condition. It really was a show car owned and loved by an enthusiast too. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Abdul 0 Posted April 18, 2012 I agree with Adrian. I got more for mine and to be honest i reckon Andys was worth a similar amount. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted April 18, 2012 This was definitely worth more. I don't understand why it was a slog to get it sold. Very strange. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Portent 0 Posted April 18, 2012 The weird thing is, the previous owner also had some trouble selling it. It was still a fantastic car back then too. I guess it's just one of those cars that doesn't like to change owners. Really odd. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C5 OEM 0 Posted April 19, 2012 It did not fetch good money when you consider the spec and condition,even in todays market it was worth 4k plus all day long but hey ho thats the way these things go. I`m getting some money back and able to move on which is good as it was all coming to a natural end especially being let down recently by people I thought were friends. Its going to a good home and should still be seen around Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

24V Renshaw 0 Posted April 21, 2012 Genuinely one of the best kept cars around shame it's no longer local. I have a feeling you will be back on one soon though ;) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James. 9 Posted April 21, 2012 I'd just like to echo the sentiments posted previous Andy. But make sure you stick around. Your car and work rate has been a wonderfully high bench mark. If mine gets any where near the standard of yours, then I'll be a very happy man. All the very best with what comes next, James. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted June 28, 2012 Why do people do these cryptic thread posts! What do you wonder? Have you bought your old car back again? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
C5 OEM 0 Posted June 28, 2012 Why do people do these cryptic thread posts! What do you wonder? Have you bought your old car back again? Ha ha...no just pondering on corrado ownership..... tbh honest have looked around at various things but sometimes it`s better the devil you know. Anyone who sells their car will always look back and remember the good things..... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
