DESCRIPTION

PRIOR LISTINGCLASSIC CAR AUCTIONS SAYS:

 

The same ownership from new and just 62,400 miles... Much coveted because of its good looks and great handling, Auto Express magazine hailed the Corrado as ""one of VW's best-ever drivers' cars"" at launch. The VR6 model was listed as one of the ""25 Cars You Must Drive Before You Die"" by the British magazine, Car and 'By far the most desirable version of the Corrado' by Auto Express.

Classic Car Auctions are delighted to present this 1995 Volkswagen Corrado 2.9 VR6 'Storm' Limited Edition. A UK-only limited production model, the Corrado Storm differed from the standard car by having some discreet 'Storm' badging, a colour-coded front grille, an additional Storm badge on the gear gaiter surround, 15 inch BBS 'Solitude' alloy wheels, and some previously optional items, such as the leather heated front seats, fitted as standard. Only 500 were produced: 250 in Mystic Blue and 250 in Classic Green with a Cream leather interior as we have here.

The current owner has driven the car from new, it was first registered to his business and then he transferred ownership to himself some 18 years ago after selling the business, so although the records display two registered keepers, this car is effectively a one owner vehicle. It was issued with an MOT with no advisories in May and it was also serviced at this time with the details in the file along with the rest of the comprehensive service history.

These cars are just too good to miss.
