Couldn't resist it, makes so much practical sense. Got offered an H reg VW Polo GT for ?100 by the guy that does the karaoke in our local pub. Just picked it up and got it for ?75 in the end ;D
Goes bloody well for a 1.3, has single point injection, same as the 1.4 Pug, but 'feels' much quicker. Needs a bit of attention for the MOT but nothing to drastic that I've noticed so far - I haven't had a really good look round it yet so there maybe something horrible awaiting me but hey-ho, its only ?75. Bodywork is all clean, should be a cheap runaround...............and it means I can give my brothers Pug back once I've got this one sorted ;D
Correction: its not single point injection but in fact multipoint. Digifant I believe :o
-

-
Pics, ok I have the camera phone I'll take some now ;)
-

Yeah there's a small dent in that rear wing, well spotted. I reckon if I take the interior trim off that will pop straight out ;) Other side is totally clean but up against the hedge so couldn't take any pics ::)

rich drives a pink car rich drives a pink car !!? :P? :P
I'm not even going to bother, I've seen the stick Adam gets :P :P
-

-
nice one Rich,
even if it proves to be a b u g g e r for the mot you'll the money back and more in parts ;)
-
Nice one Rich looks like a steal you lucky g!t, exactly the sort of thing I'm looking for right now as a winter car.
-
so how many cars do u own now rich?
mk1 cab, mk1 Golf GTI, two Audi 80's and the Polo so only 5 - the Pug is my brothers ;)
-
nice one Rich,

Well I figured it was worth it for parts alone but I will put it on the road if there is nothing too drastic wrong. It drives fine so can't imagine there will be too much. One of the boxes is blowing and the handbrake cable is broken. Thats all I have found...........so far :)

Yeah, cheap to run, insurance, tax, petrol. Ideal and leaves me funds for the cab mods ;D
-

I had a quick look under the bonnet earlier and I wondered about that - It was Roy (the seller) who told me it was single point but I could see what appears to be injectors going to each pot. Anyway its definately a GT so now I know - cheers Paul ;D
-
75 rubs for a h reg polo???? you jammy bastid rich? ;) :D :D
Its funny how when you aren't looking, these bargains fall in your lap and yet if I had been looking I would never have found such a deal.
-
If you got five cars now, you must have a f**king multi storey outside your house!!!!!!
And you should include em all in your sig :)
-
yeah rich, sort that sig out, what's that audi doing on there :P
75 squid? feckin ell, Roy was robbed :-X
-
Great car's ;) have been driving one as our everyday driver for a few months now and the petrol lasts forever.
One thing for you to note on teh Gt's also the GT's the petrol runs out just before the red! So treat the last white line as empty
-
