i wouldnt. since the engine transplant u cant of had it long? just so u can give a focus st a race for its money is worth keeping it for. if u decide to own it for another couple of years and only once u get some chavvy chav in theyre ripspeed golf or escort or something which they think they could beat u and make u look small and u just slowly let them pull away fom u thinking theyre winning then put ur foot down and bomb it past them, u can then feel u have made someone feel very small infront of theyre friends u have accomplished something and that makes it worth keeping.....

im sure youve never once raced n e one and makde them think wtf?

haha i race cars all day long...love it, scoobies, M3's and everything! haha but i want something to enjoy a bit more all the time and something more practical really. my mates have all moved on now and got big nice cars and im ready to do the same deep down i think. Ive had it on the road since Feb 13th so 6 months really and have never been 100% happy so rather than plough more money and lose more its probably best to move on if i can. I think this is it though, if the guy doesnt leave a deposit then It will stay and ill try and find some money somewhere to get a decent daily driver!

maybe...haha

no the face is because i do absolutely love the polo to bits and am still unsure whether to let it go or not .....
I'd like to think I could. I'd love your polo. I plan to do something along them lines with my silver beast within the next year.

I like your idea of keeping the polo and getting a daily driver..................... DO IT!

Just use a tea towel or something and don't yanked it. Just twist.

What's with the Revo sticker? Is that where you got your work done? One of my mates has just bought a 330bhp Pulsar that had work done from Revo, quite expensive.

REVO is a re-map company....the best there is, because mine was the first polo to run a factory ECU they had to write a one-off code for my Polo - so very special treatment!
