Uh-oh, there goes this months pay check...
« on: 24 September 2008, 20:46 »
Just won this monster....



Collecting this weekend hopefully, but plans are;


Obviously not a Mk1 Golf, but you get the idea! :rolleyes:

Maybe ATS cups, detailed/polished engine (1043cc), G40/Golf interior, waxed to within an inch of it's life! :grin:

No other reason than my GTi is in the garage & I've been reminiscing about the days with my first car (1991 Polo CL) but this time low & phat! :wink:

Could have a point, maybe some BBS but not sure if they'd look as good with stretched tyres!? :huh:

Either way, it will depend on what fleabay turns up cheapest!! :grin:

What's the polo like compared to the golf?  As easy to work on?  As many parts around?  What sort of engines do they come with?  Not been into VW's before but think I'm getting slowly hooked..

Just going on my experience - mk1 golf v mk4 polo - the golf wins everytime..feels more sturdy, better handling, better build quality...and its annoys me that the air filter on the polo has like 5-6 screws - just for an air filter!!
saying that the gt I had was fab for a little nippy car...and some of the polos being modded now are well  :cool:

I look forward to seeing that Polo become a Po-low :cool:

But for the purest engine experience, displacement has no replacement. All other methods are simply attempts to artificially recreate the benefits of displacement.
