Story starts and ends so far with VW

When i was 17 got a 300 pound mint condition red polo mk2 was wonderful until i couldn’t afford it so had to sell it that’s the early days in a nutshell

when 19 and being the manager of a pub had 1.4 untill the 10/05/2011

now 20, 2 years ncb! i decided to perchase myself this!


drove down today, left at 6am to drive 173miles down to London, got there got taken for a test drive funny thing was got pulled by cops, due to us drive down the road pulling into the garage then turn strait back out!

so they followed us blues and two's stopped ended up just asking why we did the strange act, basically said that i was going to buy the car, blar blar blar, so ended up speaking to them about golfs for a few mins!

to cut the story short ended up buying this for £955, and drove it all the way back to chester from bottom of london ended up taking 4+ hours in all, but worth it, car didn't miss a beat driving back even though managed to use 70 pound worth of fuel!

got it home about 6pm just had enough time to give it a wash and installed my hella quads, off my old 1.4 and disconnected the sub to install in the vr tomorrow! i shall also post pics tomorrow of what it looks like with quads on! thats all for now!  :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
