UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Hey Peeps,

My name's Nick, 20 from manchester.

Last christmas I bought an immaculate MK2 16valve golf, saved up for bloody ages to get that car, and after 4 months some daft bint wrote it off!
I tell ya, I was gutted. Cheeky gits sent me an offer today saying it was only worth 300 quid, and because I dont have it anymore (it's been scrapped) they cant increase the offer
So I bought a Metro, I know it was the wrong thing to do, but I needed a car, so I took it, and now it won't even run. even more ...
So this weekend, I'm getting me a 6n. I fancy a 1.6 GLX 3 door. Anybody got any experiences of this model polo? And how good an example can i get for 2K??

I know it's a long first post, but I really need help as I hardly know anything about polo's...

Cheers,
Nick

looked like a nice short post to me - wait till you see one of Tahreys

you can get a 6n for 2k easy. maybe with slightly higher milleage but yeah it can be done with electric, pas,c/l etc etc

Welcome mate, go for a MK3 polo!

Get a GT

You know it makes sense... See members rides for more info!

haha so true

Tahrey is king of the massive post





Why a 1.6 GLX and not just a valver?

yes go for the mk4 polo mate..

ahhhh you cheeky b*stards (and all the other usernames too)

... if only i could say its a lie tho
lol see the hobbies and interests post, that'll take a good six or seven minutes of reading and probably 2 and a half pages of A4 when printed at standard size

i dont get the recent obsession with tabloid-esque text message brevity. some things do take longer than others to say, and seven or eight lines of computer type is hardly pushing the literary boundaries of war & peace and the like. why folk on here and other message boards (particularly stuff such as b3ta.com's question-of-the-week) feel the need to continually apologise for taking up a little more screen space and an incalculably small extra bit of download time is beyond me. (even a 14.4k modem transmits close to a full page of A4 type every second)

you can say some stuff in a one or two line, SMS-like message, but not always.

mind you someone will have to take over the crown hehehehe
could do with an editor as well, my bro next door is training to be one fresh out of uni, could ask him but he'd probably just hit ctrl+a - delete every time.
