spike60 Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Owned since Sept 2013, the daily plodder is getting the push as I now have something older and shonkier.Polo 1.4 Tdi with the 3 pot PD engine, excellent runner, uses no oil or coolant. Se means sunroof, CD, other posh (for a Polo) stuff. 149k miles,excellent on fuel, everything except the rear washer works.Clutch fitted at 130k/2 years ago. Cambelt kit, discs and pads all round, tyres all round, exhaust back box and CV's at 138k/1 year ago.It has some laquer peel, mainly to the bonnet and A pillars and a light dent to the drivers side wing thanks to son No2. Ever since I bought it it has had a gentle pull to the left and since fitting Mintex discs it has had a light brake tremor.Extensive history, MOT until 25/03/2017 with no advisories. I would be taking it to Le Mans (1000 miles return) next month if I was going, but I'm not so neither is the Polo. Drives well and is trustworthy. Shiters discount available. No P/x, swaps or raffles please, I need a fleet reduction.... PM for anything I've forgotten or phone number. Car is in Redcar and is currently taxed.

M'coli Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Asking a silly question, but I assume these engines are PD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bell Posted May 17, 2016 Share Posted May 17, 2016 Says PD in the listing. It looks lovely that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike60 Posted May 17, 2016 Author Share Posted May 17, 2016 Yes, it's a PD. It is pretty much 3/4 of the 1.9 Tdi fitted to almost every taxi in the land, most of these engines at this age went into Aldi A2's. Differs from the 1.9 by having a solid flywheel and a balancer shaft. I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

trigger Posted May 18, 2016 Share Posted May 18, 2016 Even I'm liking the look of this, but having just upgraded to a Mk2 Astra i feel this could be a step back to far... spike60 and Jim Bell 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spike60 Posted May 19, 2016 Author Share Posted May 19, 2016 Now sold to a work colleague. Thanks for the interest and kind words, a possible further fleet reduction may happen shortly... or not. Fleet at 3, about 1/2 a car more then I'm comfortable with. trigger 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Bell Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 I'm not surprised that someone snapped that up. Well sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
