Make:VW
Model:Polo
Year/Reg:M reg.
Mileage:112000 on the clock but the engine had done about 70000 when I fitted it less than 1000 miles ago
MOT:23/07/2010
Tax:06/2010
Good points:This is a really cool car, I just miss my rwd beemers and want to get another e36, as that’s what I had before this.
The car started off life as a Match coupe; at some point before me owning it it had a GT conversion (I have the receipts for this). However when I bought it it was suffering with low oil pressure so I swapped the engine for a 1400cc ABD running GT management and a Poloace 8k chip. It has grey GT interior and black door cards. The car has recently (before my ownership) been fully resprayed in white with colour coded bumpers. The arches have been rolled to fit the 14x8et12 and 14x9et0 banded steels which have 195/45/14 Falken Ziex fitted and have done less than 1000miles.
The roof was in a state when I bought as at some point it had vinyl and somebody had done a bad job removing it, I have completed the job and painted the roof black, although I did this with a roller so it does have a textured finish.
Since I have owned the car I have replaced the flexi brake lines, front disks and pads, rear shoes, front track control arms, both track rods and ends, ignition coil, front suspension top mounts and the handbrake cable. Basically if it was worn I’ve replaced it.
Bad points:This car is low to achieve the look, as a result the steering arms hit the body on bumps and the ride isn’t all that comfortable. When I rolled the arches the paint split I have treated the bare metal and repainted the arches however if you look closely it can be seen. The front seats are a little grubby, but not bad for their age, also the drivers lower bolster has started to collapse.
Location:Derby

Price:£1200 with the banded steels or £900 with black 15” miltispoke alloys
