harry 0 Posted January 8, 2006 Hi folks, So I've just put a deposit on a Storm, after many years on a 16V. It all look genuine, but the log book just says VR6. How do I prove it's a Storm?? Ta for any help. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 8, 2006 Contact vw , they will tell you and no they weren't named as storms on the log book Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 8, 2006 not exactly "cars for sale " mate - would have been better in general car chat no doubt tom will move it :-) oh and welcome to the forum :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted January 8, 2006 :lol: I do have a life you know ;) Moving. And the log book will only say VR, but like Gix says, contact VW with the VIN number. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oxfordpaul 0 Posted January 8, 2006 If it's blue it should be Mystic Blue with black leather and will say this on an orange sticker inside the driver side wing. It should also have a colour coded grill, BBS Solitude alloys and a Storm badge by the gear lever and on the back under the Corrado badge. The green ones had cream leather but could be ordered in this colour so are easier to fake. The log books do not say Storm. How many miles has it done? Is it the one with He-man cos that is genuine?

harry 0 Posted January 8, 2006 Gents, Great responses chaps, thanks. It's done a ridiculous 300k+, but then cost bugger all. Anyone willing to venture a guess of demand for a 1990, 18v, 116k 2 anoraky owners from new, history etc? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ardandy 0 Posted January 8, 2006 Mines Mystic Blue with black leather, unfortunately not a storm though. Only on a K plate for one! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 8, 2006 is that the one that was on ebay ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oxfordpaul 0 Posted January 8, 2006 Ardandy, have you bought the blue one with Recaro leather that was on here? If so that's Aqua Blue Pearl, same colour as mine - Mystic Blue was a Storm only colour from 1995 M. Cheers and hope the new car is good, seats look amazing!

GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 8, 2006 aye but you could have gone with the diplomatic - slightly rough, moderately rough, not quite mint rough or even just rough but you went with the "really rough" -we set light to it and danced around it laughing insanely with mad bulging eyes like a funeral pyre anyhoo just a thought :wink: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

veeDuB_Rado 0 Posted January 8, 2006 GIXXERUK, some of the comments about that made it sound well rough tho! /off topic Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GIXXERUK 0 Posted January 8, 2006 16v, whats all this honesty ? i'll have no honesty in here ! this is a local forum for local people :-) 335k must takes it toll (unless kev had it :-) ) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KADVR6 0 Posted January 8, 2006 i was the first person to view this car/shed, the day it went on the auto trader. and i'm sorry, but i would not buy it, okay your getting a storm for about £2300 i guess?? but it's been very much neglected, yes its got fsh, but the bodywork/interior was the worst i have ever seen on a 9 year old vw. have you seen the car yet in the flesh..

harry 0 Posted January 8, 2006 Chaps, What a top bunch of blokes, for all your comments and welcomes. The storm's probably in the rough, but not really rough, and as for the shed?? I must have low standards. So I'll be the geezer posting the weekly requests for help as it breaks down and recommending to people to go for the minter, not a 'bargain'. I'll stick my current car on the cars for sale. Harry, the bloke with the shed. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
