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.

A G40 for £100?! You jammy bugger.. I paid triple for my 1.05 mk2 :evil:
Looks a good find anyway, better keep us updated with its progress ;)

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!
