You're going to convert a Polo into a Golf?

You Golf3 boys have some funny ideas.
Just because you're offended doesn't make you right.

Haha! Something like that, just the cal look stylings anyway, or perhaps more euro looker. Hell, a trend has to start somewhere & I'd almost put money on there being fewer Polo Coupe's around than Mk1 Golfs!!

Not to say it's a better car, just something interesting to play with! :grin:

Is that the shape that they did the G40 in?

Yup! :wink:

Well, the MK3 shape which basically had a face lift at the front.

No, the bay is to small. Well OK you could fit one but it would be a real ball ache. I thnk 1.4 GT lump or the G40 is about the biggest you can go before you have to start cutting up the chasis legs to get clearence.
