There are tons of garage and parts receipts. During my ownership I have probably spent around 7k with nothing to spare with receipts to prove. It is now a great example of a 16v with none of the common drawbacks.
The original gearbox was reconditioned about a year ago.
The pedal box was also replaced soon after I purchased the car.
The headgasket and rocker cover gasket were both replaced just before it was necessary with service parts and additional work around 106k miles. The garage pretty much cleaned up most of the internals just because I’m a loyal customer!
It runs sweet as a nut and a potential owner should have no fears of common Polo issues as they’ve all been eradicated.
Additional extras
2 sets of Keys and alarm fobs
FK Powerlook headlights and 6000k HIDs
Standard tinted 16v rear clusters
Can supply an uber rare set of Zender Sterns for an additional £400.

Bad points
As you can guess a car of this age will have minor issues due to being a daily motor.
Driver seat bolster stitching has stretched (Prior to owning it).
Very fine stone chips on the front as should be expected.
There is a small 50p dent in the O/S/F wing.
There are a few unnoticeable scratches along the sides which could easily be fixed as well as the front bumper as a result of some chavs driving antics.
The paint has also cracked where the plate recess was smoothed on the front bumper due to another chavs parking mistake!
Small amount of rust has recently appeared on the O/S rear arch.
I have priced the car at £1685ovno taking everything into consideration. Part exchanges are welcome as I’m currently looking to buy something like an Audi A4/A3 around the £4-6k mark depending on what I get for the valver.
The car is located in East London and viewings are welcome. Test drives are subject to seeing proof of insurance to drive 3rd party vehicles.
