6n Polo Project!
Posted: Wed Jan 13, 2010 5:40 pm
alright im new to this forum as im usually on clubpolo and found this one aswell so thought id join here 
first a bit about myself
im 17 years old and doing BTEC national diploma in motor vehicle
this course requires that i do a project which means i need to carry something motor vehicle wise out and record what i have done
so thought about a few things, this was my list
1. Engine converstion on a nova from standard to a c20xe(redtop)
2. Buy a car that has failed m.o.t and get it back on the road
3. I.C.E in any car
4. Euro style a vw
has you can tell i went for option 4,
i wanted it to also be my first car so not wanting to do anything drastic to it as it may end up like most other people first cars
in a ditch
anyway, i bought a mk4 polo 6n, 1.4 8v in white
was in crash but picked it up for £150 so dint think it was that bad, what you think?
has done 98k miles
needs a new front end
PICS:
stuff need to fix from crash:
slam panel
indicators
headlights
grill surround
grill
front bumper
bonnet (maybe)
radiator
front valence bar

well i bought a new slam panel and radiator off a bloke on clubpolo for £20 which i didnt think was a steep price
took the old bumper, radiator and slam panel off ready for my new one arriving
after i had removed all this i noticed that my chassis arm was bent
this is now all straighted out now!
