Debate - what makes a Storm a better car than a normal VR?
Keyo replied to fendervg's topic in General Car Chat
Yeah that's it class colour. My dream car would be a 993 C2S in that colour. -

The problem with the mystic blue is when it ages a bit it almost goes like a pink/ purple off colour. I like the the real dark blue like a midnight blue they had on the 964. -

Storms are not for me personally, they are not the colours I go for in a car, I prefer the other shades of blue available, and liked Oak Green on the Mk2 golf. -
Does look a clean car welcome to the Corrado world ! I would pull the ladies bum down at the rear a little to improve the stance.
-
Storm should of had a Variable inlet manifold or a chip in the ECU to make it that little bit special, it's just a stunt by VW to shift the last batch out the factory and they have just done it with the MK 7.5 Golf TCR, but at least it has more poke .
-
That is true as I owned one in the early 90s and still have a bad itch for one but just sold my R129 and keeping to one classic now in the household if I can help it !!!.
-
Not sure but I have read in the past that the plugs look the same for the fog light and ambient sensor and people have plugged into the wrong way , is your fog working OK , that would illuminate it quickly off the list.
-
Lets be honest if a Renault GT 5 turbo are selling for £20 k and 205 GTI, also silly prices for Fords why on earth is the Rado cheaper then a 16V Mk2 golf ??
-
Didn't someone off here buy this at an auction a few months back and posted this car on the forum!!
-
Mine is a second car so I could sit on it in till I got the price I wanted, but I think some people let them go cheaper so they can get their money out them towards their next car. Two big mistakes buyers make are thinking a car is great because it has low mileage and also buying just because it has a Storm badge, always always buy on history and condition.
-
Ive stuck a Voo Doo badge on my gear box as its colour black magic Im hoping to retire lol !
-
The car looks great in the photos but if you add all the repairs that need doing and also most things were done nearly 10 years ago from what the advertisement says, I think the original seller sold it at the correct price, the new seller is a bit of a chancer by the looks of it, I wonder if it is the same seller who keeps on buying the Mk2 16V golfs then adds a few k on them the next day and puts them on ebay . The thing is I wouldnt be surprised if someone purchases it and not been realistic in the repair costs.
-
Possibly the MFA function to . Also check that the fog light and the ambient sensor plug have not been mixed up.
-
They do , there is one on amazon for £29 and free delivery but coming from abroad with a long wait ! I find if these sort of companies based in Lithuania/ Latvia etc are getting them from a source somewhere , you just got to find that source and go direct.
-
No worries mate the dealers still have a fair few of the sensors knocking about.
-
Hi J, Is this the sensor that gives the the external temperature to the MFA , If so number 11 on the diagram part number 357919379A link below. http://www.oemepc.com/vw/part_single/catalog/vw/markt/RDW/modell/COR/year/1995/drive_standart/76/hg_ug/919/subcategory/212010/part_id/3690238/lang/e#sec_14 They are on ebay from foreign sellers if you put the part number in , try the dealers first you never know as a few vag models shared this part, Mk3 golf and more.
-
Good stuff lads this one will get sorted.
-
I have a brand new one in the package mate purchased recently from VW classics. I can dig out the receipt and you can have it for what I payed + postage if you like. Also has the rubber stop , does not include the housing.
-
Ok I will do mate but been selfish I'll post in a month or so as my car is going into the body shop in the next few weeks, hope you don't mind. Post it as Midlands Meet.
-
Ok good info let us know how you get on, that Johns pump might be quality and just called Johns to sell a different a quality brand on a budget, this is happening a lot in the automotive world.
-
Thanks MOO much appreciated and yes catch up soon.
-
Good stuff MOO Im well up for this !!! Do you want to start the thread and see if there is any interest as it was your idea for a meet up and dont want to nic the idea. I have seen a lot of Midland owners post on here so should be able to get the numbers up and its a nice day out is Stratford.
-
Can we clarify you are fitting the Johns pump with your spare VDO sender VR6 South ? Also when JP said the pump was not suitable was that because it was a 3 bar or because it is not suitable for a Piersberg early pump set up. Cheers.
