Daniel29490 10 Posted May 26, 2014 First of all, Hello everyone, I'm new here. Unfortunately I've never been lucky enough to own a Corrado yet. My uncle used to own one when I was a kid, man that car was awesome. Back to my point. My girlfriend spotted a Corrado last week, poking out of a small carport about 15 miles away from where we live. So we went back there, and after a few hours searching for the place we finally found it. Unfortunately nobody lives in the place anymore. We spoke to someone who lives nearby, and asked them if they knew who lived there or who owned the car, and all we got was that a bloke goes round every now and then and keeps the place tidy. Does anyone know the owner of a black corrado just outside of Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire? It looks lowered, but I could be wrong. I know this is a very long shot, but I'm desperately searching all VW forums I can find. I've got the Reg of the car but I wouldn't want to make it public just in case it would upset someone. Any ideas to how I could even begin to search? Is there a database of all corrados registered on this forum? Any help or clues would be great. I'm a helpless loser when it comes to Corrados, I just can't help it, this mad urge to find the owner, hope to god he doesn't want more money than I can afford. It's had the same owner since 2010, sadly it's also been Sorn since 2010. So I don't think the current owner got to enjoy this car for too long.

robrado974 1 Posted May 26, 2014 First thing I would do is put a note In an envelope and leave it on the screen . If he wants to sell he knows who to call Rob Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jim 2 Posted May 26, 2014 Aye - I think a note under the windscreen wiper might be the best approach? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel29490 10 Posted May 26, 2014 The car is parked in a carport. I don't want to be trespassing. I left a note with my details with a neighbour. I'll be going up on weekend to hopefully catch the owner there Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel29490 10 Posted June 8, 2014 Just to update this. Owner has been found. Deal has been made. Car has been bought. She's awaiting an mot now. Here's a few pictures of it being washed.

DPS 10 Posted June 9, 2014 Congratulations! I love Black Corrados. I hope you really enjoy her :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel29490 10 Posted June 9, 2014 I've been sat in the unit for at least an hour, just looking at it. Rolling around from one corner to the other on an office chair. Kind of like admiring it from every angle Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DPS 10 Posted June 10, 2014 I'm guilty of similar myself. When I go to the garage for something other than the car I give her a little stroke or a pat, then sigh in admiration before wrestling with my heart as I walk out the door. Christ! I sound like a complete nutter :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Daniel29490 10 Posted June 10, 2014 Well, imagine how I feel now that she passed the mot. No advisories. And a lot of jealous faces as I reversed her out with a big smug face. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
