Most of the Corrado's I've seen have had a sunroof,

so I'd say yes your Corrado is a rare one with the solid roof.

I don't know exactly how many were made with the solid roof,

but it's less then the sunroof type.

 

Most early ones not all , didn't have the sunroof.

 

Plus most had the manual gearbox,

auto ones are rare.

 

I think there were 97,521 Corrado's built / sold world wide,

most of which are left hand drive,

a small hand full of countries had the right hand drive vehicles including us.

 

 

But I think the rarest Corrado is the VR6 Storm, these are rare as rocking horse pooh,

if anyone has a Storm and it's totally standard,

do not sell it as these will go up big time in value.

And the same with the MK1 Golf GTI and MK2 Golf G60 really rare now,

and so is the MK1 & 2, Scirocco Storm and the MK2 Scirocco GTS 16v really really rare.

 

DON'T SELL THEM, lol

 

 

Hope this helps.

 

Si

I think they are pretty rare,at ccgb national Day last year there was 1 amongst 50 + Corrado's. They tend to be early valvers afaik.

Mines non sunroof. Looking at the number of threads about sunroof problems and replacements I'm quite glad about it.

Usually only very early 16v and 2.0 8v that don't have the sunroof as it was an option on these, I'm sure I've seen one or two other models though, it certainly saves a lot of weight!

Mine is 1991 1.8 16v and non-sunroof, with wind up windows as well

 

Less to go wrong :) Sunroofs are a known weak spot, and the electric window mechanism failing means drilling rivets out and re-riveting the mechanism back in... not much fun at all!
