NZ Corrado list
« on: January 07, 2010, 10:57:02 PM »
Hi everyone,

I have put together a list of all the NZ Corrados I am aware of, and so far have the details of 9 NZ new cars and 4 imports.

NZ New:
White - 3
Blue - 1
Black - 2
Red - 7

Imports:
White - 2.0 16V
Navy Blue - 2.9 VR6
Red - 1.8 8V G60
Purple - 2.0 16V
Green - 2.9 VR6 Storm

If anyone sees or knows of any Corrados please PM me the number plate combination, or even better a photo so I can then add them. :D

Cheers!

There is a grey NZ New 16v rolling around, apparently lives in Onehunga but I have seen it in CBD twice. Can't remember number plate.

I sure do, it's the white import (originally 1.8 16V, then 1.9 16V, now 2.0 16V)

Neil gave me a list a couple of years ago with:
NZ New (all 16vs):

Red- 7 (Including one tourist delivery)
White - 3 (one since de-registered)
Blue - 1
Black - 2

Imports:
White - 1 ex UK
Red (but not tornado red) ex Sing
Black - 1 ex UK
Purple - 1 ex UK
Green - 1 (VR6) ex UK
Blue - 1 (VR6)

One of the NZ red cars was written off in WLG (last year?)
The Fleet:
Orange Roughy:'90 16v Corrado
The Little Tank: '93 2.8l 100 Quattro
'89 Carrera 4. 
Still trying to figure out how to get 'em all to fit in a single garage....

The Neil's list wasn't as exhaustive as we thought - the dark blue Auckland VR6 isn't on there, nor is the Grey 16v that Vert mentioned.  I think the Green ex-Japan VR6 may have been written off a few years ago so that's a 'maybe' not on the list as well.

Cynic - he had a black LHD g60 for parts on his red 16v with facelift bits on. Since sold to a non vasker I think? Had a good smack in the bum!

There is a LHD G60 in Christchurch that has never been registered in New Zealand (LHD) but is very tidy and complete.
