Well, I thought I'd ask the question, as everyone seems to be selling up (including myself!)
So, how long did you keep your polo or perhaps polos? until you changed it for a bigger and better one
Thanks

I'll be keeping mine probably another 2 years, at least one year, maybe forever, and have had it 15 months now

Had mine 2 years now I think, and plan on keeping it for the forseable future and finishing it all properly
Second car will be coming next year hopefully

had both mine around a year but I was planning to keep my old 8v till it broke down to bits! I'l probably do the same with this if it stopped getting expensive gremlins everywhere!

Had my original 1.0E 6N2 for just under 2.5 years.
Then swapped it for the GTi which I've now had for over 2.5 years, and I'm starting to think it might be time for a change.
