fair play to you whichever you decide to do tom - if you are looking for a re-trim - a mate of mine used a company called Transcal if thats of any use to you.

Out of the two I am going against the grain and would say TVR.

At least then your money/investment would only depreciate over the period of ownership you have it for. Whereas with an engine conversion, as soon as you have spent it, you'll never see any of that money back.

If you have alot of dispoable income, think about investing in your own abode. 5-10 years down the line when you decide you do want live on your own two feet, you'll regreat not getting on the ladder earlier. Bricks & mortar appreciate, 99% of cars depreciate. And i'd say your own flat is a much better pulling machine than a fast Polo or TVR :wink: .
Posted just after you so missed this one.

I do agree with what you've said there mate, it's just that I can't see the Polo going anytime soon so It'd be nice to just finish it off.

That way I can pay for most of it instead of borrowing leaving me able to get a house/flat earlier than if I got a TVR :D

Not sure the 2.0 TFSI would fit. Isn't the 1.8T meant to be a bit of a squeeze?

Don't forget the interior :P

I think you should go ahead with the 20VT conversion, Tom.

insane as it may sound, shouldnt it be possible to bang a mk4 R32 engine in??? theoretically if the 1.8T from the golf gti can fit then the R32 from practically the same chassis can?? a bit of editing and some reinforcing? You may end up with a psychotic polo but it would ROCK!
