UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

The time has finally come to say goodbye to the old polo
However, staying with the theme of white 1980's VW's, I have just treated myself to this little beauty:

If anyone's interested in my car, there's a post in the for sale section. Will be sad to see the polo go

you getting old mate

theres me looking for a new project and you go sell yours


WHY????

i thought you loved your polo

I do But I was lured by the temptation of a 1.8i coupe... going to be hard to part with it though.

gonna be sad to see that go, what happened to your GT conversion plans?

that car was the one that got me thinking my car could look cool with a little work

p.s aren't you away at uni still? in which case why not wait till your done and then decide what to do as it won't make much difference anyway???

And then there were none!

Well, GT conversion was still on the cards, but I realised quite how much I liked the scirocco and that insurance had finally come down to a half-managable level.. would have liked to do it though, it seems such a shame to let it go still with a 1043cc engine in it, it deserves more Also, short of doing the GT conversion I'd pretty much done everything I really wanted to to the polo, and it was just getting to be the same old maintenance routines rather than really trying out new things. Now at least I'll have a blank canvas to explore..
My original plan was to keep the polo while I was at uni and then move on to bigger things... but I got impatient I wasn't originally going to bring a car to uni, but I think I'll be keeping the scirocco here now. Anyway, bit late to wait now, I've kinda committed myself to buying it now

And then there were none!

I know.. I feel a bit like I'm letting the side down, but it had to happen one day. The car is up for grabs if anyone wants to join the merry band of mk2 owners, I just hope someone from here takes it, would be a real shame to see it going to a non-enthusiast as it's a very neat little car.

Anyway, I'm sorry to be leaving polo's behind, but it had to happen one day. Maybe when I'm rich enough I'll get a polo back as a runaround or a project, it would be nice. Anyway, I'll hang about on the forums, hope to come to the odd meet even if I am polo-less, there's a very nice community going on here and I wouldn't want to leave that behind

sorry to see that you'll be getting rid of the polo mate! but must admit, good choice of replacement!

make sure u keep us updated of the progress!

Will do I'll try to make it to the next south east meet with the rocco - is there one planned any time soon?

there is always one in my mind! just not sure when yet!

rocco is a coooool motor!!! and its just down the road from me and doug!! why have i not seen it before??

i didn't notice the location! doh!

dumbass

Yep it is I'd suggest an impromptu meetup when I go to collect it, but it's going to be pretty late by the time I get to Sandwich and then I've got to get it home again before I'm absolutely dead on my feet. Going to be a hectic day.. start work at 7, finish at 1, straight to the station, arrive around 5, drive home for about 8:00 and then straight back to Reading the next day Barely going to have time to enjoy the ride..

blimey, where bouts in sandwich is it mate??

The address is Eastry, so just outside Sandwich.
