Among these, it is now one of just 7 manual examples still registered for use on UK roads.

Maintenance & History: This example boasts an illustrious ownership history, having been in the possession of the same family for 13 years (2009-2022) before being purchased by The Vendor at our Spring Classic Car Auction in April 2022. With just five former keepers over its 30-year lifespan, this Corrado has been cherished throughout its life, with an average annual mileage of 4,270 miles.

The car’s service history is meticulously documented, with its original Volkswagen book pack included, featuring the Corrado instruction manual, Service Schedule, and related documentation. The Service Schedule records 14 service stamps, beginning in 1995 at 10,853 miles and continuing to 2022 at 127,433 miles, with only 686 miles completed since the last service. Invoices totaling nearly £8,000 and MOT certificates dating back to 1994 further attest to the care this car has received over the years. The most recent service in 2022 was completed at a cost of £1,081.76. In The Vendor’s ownership the vehicle has benefitted from new brake discs and pads, new headlining, a new rear spoiler, a new battery, new tyres and work to all electric windows to ensure they are all operating correctly.

The Model: The Volkswagen Corrado was produced by Karmann in Osnabrück, Germany, from 1988 to 1995. The Storm edition, powered by a 2.9-litre VR6 engine producing 187 BHP, offers impressive performance, achieving 0-62 mph in 6.9 seconds and a top speed of 147 mph where allowed.
