    Hi just wondering if it states 'storm' on corrado storm log books? is there any other way to varify a real storm? chassis number maybe? and are the green ones dragon green or is it a unique colour and whats the paint code?

    easiest way, is it will be probably 2000 over priced and the person selling will be late 50's wearing a baseball cap and thinking its the nuts

    lmao! Dont pay the premium, well, not unless you want to be a total gimp. You can get better specced vr6's in better colours for less money.

    Meaning that you've bought another car without seeing it - will you ever learn?! :lol: Start scouring the classifieds for an engine/clutch/fuel pump.....

    I decided to be sensible and not go ahead with the purchase. Not only did it not have service history but no decent MOT history either. Apparently it only covered around 3k miles in the last year or so and the mot history I managed to dig up had some reoccuring advisories pointing to further neglect.

    Edit: forgot to add the drivers side rear quarter looked like it was sprayed by urr...... you Mike ;)

    most raddo's are neglected - shame really as its a modern classic. Mint one's will be worth a fortune in a few years.

    Golden Rule: Look first, THEN do the deal. Cars are far too complicated to buy unseen. It looks from this that you're finally learning that one, Grasshopper,
