Henny 0 Posted September 7, 2005 quite a few early 90's tuning companies did Convertable versions of the Corrado with the Zender one being the famous one, and the Karmann one which is in the factory being another. IIRC there were a few Zender ones made in the end, so your seeing one is possible... 8) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
scarlett 0 Posted September 7, 2005 I've seen pics of one that lives up near North Queensferry, its a red VR that some guy has had converted himself. My mate saw it when he was there and got talking to the owner, apparently he only uses it in summer and he's owned it almost from new, its completely standard apart from the roof conversion. My friend told him about my C and the forum and the owner said he 'wasnt in to all that stuff'..... its a pity cos it was stunning!!! I'll see if my mate still has the pics on his phone he can send me and i'll post em up..... :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
