Look what I bought for £100

Post by jimbob »

I've had it now for about six weeks just sitting on my drive while I awaited for the previous owner to contact me to sort out the log book, now I have eventually got it last nite I'm waiting to find out if she's got any history for the car.

Bad Points - its had a bump in the back and theres no mot or tax but who can complain for £100 its also got four brand new uniroyal tyres on and a new ECU

if any1 can find any thing out about this car like HPI or previous owners or anything like that please could you let me know Thanks Jim.

That is a seriously unbelievable bargain!
Did the previous owner have absolutely no idea of the car's real value?
I find it unbelievable (again!) that they would buy a car like that never realising it would be worth much more than a 'normal' Polo when it comes to selling it (even with the damage).
Whatever, well done to you for getting in first!
