Looks like your man stumbles across a rare 60k plus mini in his 5 barn sprite find.

Thanks for the offer ABV .

Thanks if the high temp glue doesn't work then unfortunately will have to put it down to a massive fail of the material Heritage are supplying and get some fabric material- I know of at three other Mk2 owners that have had the same failure with the vinyl they supply- others are mostly in the garage and really to test how good the glue is the car needs to see some 30 degree weather all day in the sun. Im starting to think the material has too much shrink in it - wouldn't surprise me to be honest we are talking the Meyle and topran No 1 suppliers.

I know what you mean but as they get old they start to look really classy in my eyes. The guy says getting rid of some of his cars would love to see what else he had.

H Ha Ha Ithink you found its resting place. On a brighter note anyone else think this rare Lorinser R107 is on the cool wall. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1986-MERCEDES-500SL-LORINSER-R107-/283956252433 Seller has a Merc collection also has this rare beast for sale- I love these rare german Mercs that left the factory straight to the German tuning houses - that was AMG before they purchased them. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/1990-MERCEDES-W124-BRABUS-3-6-Q3T/283956252770?hash=item421d1c9062:g:ze8AAOSwl-teaRJf

Hold on members think your been a bit unfair as the barn might of had no noof or side elevations.

Bet you its an AAA block in there too- its actually to far gone for a parts car if there is such thing ha ! Everytime you needed a spare off it would be damaged or incorrect part off another corrado or Mk3 golf .

Its a frankenstein for sure- engine cover looks about the only good thing- no dealt will have a crack in it ha !

Oh my lets see how much this goes for ! https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Volkswagen-corrado-barn-find/293680650655?hash=item4460bb199f:g:Pt4AAOSwb~VfLWLB

Thanks mate but looking at the product description on 3m 77 its not uv sunlight resistant and only medium tack which is the reason my first one failed as the trimmer used glue not upto the job of high temperature- it doesn't help they I've got a fibreglass backing and vinyl which is OE- it really does not let the heat out unlike a fabric material - going to try martim brush on high temp glue 120 degress hopefully it will hold and it is a commercial product. Got the £14.40 120 degrees brush on from Martrim https://www.martrim.co.uk/car-trimming-supplies/glues-and-adhesives.php 3m 77 Spray Can DimensionsProduct Depth (in.) 3Product Height (in.) 9Product Width (in.) 3 inSpray Adhesive DetailsAdhesion level: MediumAdhesive Product Type: Glue/EpoxyCuring time (hours): 1Dries clear: YesDrillable: YesFeatures: Dries Clear, Drillable, Moisture Resistant, Sandable, Solvent ResistantFlammable: YesGlue/epoxy type: Spray adhesiveIndoor/Outdoor: Indoor/OutdoorMoisture Resistant: YesProduct Weight (oz.): 16.75Returnable: 90-Day Sandable Yes Set Time (Min.): 60 Solvent resistant: Yes Stainable/Paintable: No UV/sunlight resistant: No

All i know mate I purchased them off ebay and when my car went in for its undercarriage restoration when completed he just gave them me back and said they were no good. Link attached of the ones I purchased back in 2018 still have them in the package in the parts shed . https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/VW-Volkswagen-Corrado-16v-G60-VR6-Eibach-Ez-Front-Camber-Bolts-PAIR-5-81250K/231410249742?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649

It wasn't the Eibach pro kit camber bolts by chance you were using chap = as I purchased some of them and Vince gave them me back and said no good.

If its the rear axle many came out of the factory sligh;y out - Vince was telling me you can only get some of them just outside but as mentioned they left the factory like that and nowt you can do. Its because when they built them they dropped them off a 50 foot cliff and the body just landed on the suspension to save time.

Irememberr in the the gangland killings in the essex boys there was a white corrado mentioned on the day - something to do with the case and was mentioned as evidence in court if you google it- you might be able to find out and see if someone owns on here or if they car is no more .

Looks a great job you have done there well done mate.

Was you lucky enough to get one from dmb chap ? I was lucky enough with my golf from Lonsdale London- they are great quality, Im thinking of getting them to make one up with W. Grose. Jack frost was a bit of a cool dealer. https://www.dmb.uk.com/prod/6038/jack-frost-hauxton-garage-cambridge-vw-dealer-sticker

Lucky to of survived Birmingham chap in the 90s the car theft here is on another level ! Nice decal has Mr John Fox and available . https://www.dmb.uk.com/prod/6047/john-fox-nottingham-vw-audi-dealer-sticker

That looks like the original decal? Cool

First registered 01.03.1996 W. Grose Eurocar So my car was from W. Grose Eurocar in Northampton apply located on Scirocco close ! Grose was originally a car manufacturer and his children went into to dealerships in the 20th century. They had several slight name changes over the years and eventually closed business in 2012. There is still a J. Grose dealership no doubt a relative. My car was a dealers company car I think- I have attached a document below from the books that came with the car and appears it was signed over to the dealership as the first owner. It then stayed there for a couple years and moved onto Market Harborough then Epsom where it was owned for at least 18 years by a very good owner and was garaged and just a weekend car- last owner but me then dailed it and did 12 k miles a year and when I purchased the car another couple of bad years ownership could of been the end of her easily. Here is the handover document - someone in a forecourt came up to me once and said that was a VW company car from Northamton and I said how did you know that ans he mentione last three digits on the reg plate- is there any truth to this ? I've heard people mention before its a good thing if it was a dealers personal car why is that ? Thanks

Managed to find an advert and for vauxhall their branches logo but not for their vag ones. By the time 95 came they had slightly changed their name. Registered 1977 - 2013 dissolved

I cant get my dealer sticker and cant find no trace of their emblem on google , but tempted to get one from another dealers ha !

What a stunner hats off to you mate 🤘

Yep certainly wouldn't want to give them away for free that's for sure.

Little citroen knobbers= sorry to hear about your loss.

They have sold in 24 hrs. Got mine for a good price to. You tempted to sell ? I'm keeping mine.
