    !

    My first proper car was a white coupe S MKII - loes it!
    Deck it, deck it good
    Fit huge wide banded steelies with super stretch, silly offset, and that's all.
    Done!

    I still love these. My first car was a Polo mk2 breadvan. I lowered it 80mm, smoothed anything smoothable on it, drove it in to a mud bank being silly and sent it to the great v dub gathering in the sky RIP lowlow.

    Well got the car back on the road MOT'd and now TAX'd - used it for about two days and somthings broke!
    It needed a few bits for the MOT and got a new gearbox while it was in the shop - since I got it back I'v personly fixed the drivers door lock/handle so I can get in the bloody thing an I'v almost messed with the carb so it does'nt idle at 2k anymore
    As for whats broken...pass, I was pullin up my drive when there were some bad noises I lost gear selection. Now its a 30k box on there and Iv unlinked the selector encase that slipped and I can get all the gears but the only way to get the engine going is with the clutch down. Either the clutch has gone or the gearbox has jammed mid gear.
    Cock cock cock cock....
    apart from that its loverly! lol

    Next plan is to locate a injection engine for it and swap it while the missus is away (so she wont know what im upto! ) lol shouldnt be too expencive an i'll do it on my drive over a weekend.
    Apart from that 40mm lower and some nice rims are on the cards i think.

    looks just like this one >>>




    I always fancied a G40 when I was younger, one day I might do something with this one, but not got the time or money at the moment, got 2 cars already, 3 would be OTT

    I ran a Mk3 for 18 months, cracking little motor. Great for fun cheap motoring which is what i needed as I didn't want to use the 200 as a daily drvier

    well besides my S14a, I've also got one of these as a daily driver >>>




    the Polo is dreadful to drive in comparison, if I ever get it back in the road it will be getting an engine transplant, brake/suspenison upgrades, etc...

    however at the moment it's a no go

    can't do really, as my Grandad gave it to me and he's still around, so he won't be best pleased if I sell it
