The manufacturer of the car is Volkswagen

The model of the car is a Corrado Storm

The engine is a 2.9 VR6

The car has travelled approximately 105,000 miles; 10k since the engine rebuild (give or take a few miles).

It has electric windows, both of these work.

It has an electric sunroof, this also works.

It has a speed sensitive spoiler with manual override, this works as it should.

 

The paint is storm blue. It has stone chips and a few rust spots. Overall it is in good condition and looks nice when cleaned. I am certain that the paint is original.

The interior is black leather. It is in good condition for the age. I find myself applying Raceglaze Leather care products to it to ensure it is both supple and fresh.

The headlining is a bit ropey. Could do with replacing if I am being honest.

The car lacks a stereo so I find myself listening to the engine soundtrack. It is more then adequate.

There seems to be a problem with the electric mirrors. I am investigating and will work out what is wrong...hopefully.

The car has been modified with the list of parts mentioned in my original post.

 

The car has 3 map settings.

Baby Map = 330BHP

Obsolete Map = 380BHP

Beast Mode = 540BHP

 

If you would like to know anything in particular feel free to ask.

I would love to own this beautiful storm but wonder if this is your bottom dollar price since it will need some tlc. I have building vw for almost 21 years now and I am very versed on what it cost to repair and labor involved in these cars. Not to mention that I would have to ship the car from your location to the US (east coast)....

Who carried out the engine work?  Are the driveshafts uprated?  Any engine bay photos?  Is the turbo also same mileage as the engine?  Any A/F or boost gauges added to monitor the car? 

 

Apologies for the delay in replying, I didn't receive a notification.

 

With regards to the driveshafts, they haven't been uprated. The turbo was bought brand new from a Schimmel Performance and it has also only done 10k miles. The car also has a boost gauge and also an A/F gauge. 

 

If you are interested in the car and would like more photos please PM your email address and I'll send them via that. I seem to have trouble uploading on here.

 

Thanks

Scott
