I think the shipping costs would mean you'd have to get the car for next to nothing to keep it sensible and there's always the chance it could be nicked by those naughty pirates  :grin:

looks like a parts bin car! Bit from Passat/Polo/Scirroco et.

Think the closest looking we have had is a Polo Gt.
Mystic Blue Mk3 16v + Black Mk5 Gti 05 plate + Peugeot 405 Mi16

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

yup VW gol. its the golf but used in south america. very very popular car in brazil, saw plenty of them when i went over last year. iirc, they have a small turbo engine, i think it was 1l turbo or something.

they were the most popular model over there.

I saw TWO 57 plate campers about a week ago, do you think they were imports? They had indicators above the front lights but were original shape!
