UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Answer to your second question. Its just spelt backward no other reason.

I think i will have to take the glory for starting the OLOP phanominome
Nobody else had it in they username when i signed up, might be wrong, but might be right, who knows.

I remember seeing that thread now. Its not Oscar, but cheers for that anyway Tim.

It looks like Oscar has disappeared of the radar for good, just hope he has gone to a good home.

Tim, any linky to that post, or point me in the right direction to find the post.
Cheers

Just wondered if anyone has seen my old polo Traded it in back in May, for a Mondeo ST TDCI, at a garage in Sheffield. Through it might have appeared on this site, but no sign of him so far.

Could it be the gearbox if its a whirring noise when in gear. Get it checked sooner than later. Hope its not the gearbox as it could be costly for you.

I really miss mine aswell

I had the same set up as Si. Could have been a little quieter as 70mph, but had no problems with it.

Changes, changes, changes.

The other was concerned about the 3 litre engine in ST220 regarding the petrol consumsion. As we only really do town driving we have played the sensible card & gone for the Diesel ST instead.

Cheers Tim.
No, i'm a sensible driver & know my limits. Plus, imagine explaining too the missus that i've stuff the olop on the way down, or even better. I've stuffed the Mondeo on the way back home ( our wedding present to each other aswell )

Nice one Alex. But i thought you were doing a conversion?

It seems like one GTi is leaving & a new one is filling thr gap.

You should have bought mine

The best thing is MM. Is that the other half isn't coming with me to collect the new motor. That means I get to drive the olop ( on the way to get the new car ) & the 3.0L V6 on the way back as it should be. :)

No really i'am a sensible driver. But on the right road & at the right time, i'am going ...

Thanks for all the replies. The Mondeo we had decided on was a salon
( didn't even realise ) but we need a hatchback because of the dog.

Been having a look about & found a 54 plate, in blue & at a good price.

Couldn't put my foot down really MM, because the car is in her name. :D

I'll post some ...

Just throught i'd let everyone known, as i haven't been on the site for a while ( been busy sorting out my wedding ). That the time has come for Oscar Olop to move on to pasture new. :(

Next week i will be driving to Suffolk to part ex. for a 53 plate, Mondeo ST220, silver, full light grey recaro ...

Mine did exactly the same as yours Redline. Changed the clutch & cable. It was all sorted.

Did you try & guess what car it was from the blurred photo

( got it in 1, my missus throught it was a Golf )
