Polo shite

[seacow]

A mate of mine has an L reg coupe with only 30 odd k on it hes getting rid of - 1.0l - always had a soft spot for these - if it was  mk2 not 3 it would be in the drive by now.....still might be nice winter motoring!!!

Bloody good motors I still miss my A reg 1983 polo classic GL,

It really wouldn't worry me if it was a Mk2 or 3 with that mileage and being a coupe it would be a must have in my books.

Only downer I would say is that on that year its going to have a cat.

Buy it and put some pics up you know it makes sense .

It even has a badge saying catalyst on the boot!!  I am swaying that way though - as winter approaches I fear that I shouldn't use the Montego daily for fear of it fading away in the salt!!

I've always liked the look of them, But hate the VeeDubz SCEEENE.

I've had 5 Polos in the last few years and currently have a saloon and a breadvan. I'd say they were decent enough cars, cheap to run, fix and insure and pretty reliable. Any idea on the trim level? if it's a genesis model they come with dark tartan style interiors, a sunroof and a rev counter which is nice.

I had a standard Mk3 coupe with the 1043cc engine... nice enough, in fact very pleasant motoring for the £150 it cost. No dings, no rust at all, and very easy to fix - as I proved by doing an engine swap on a driveway with 24 hours engine crane hire and zero mechanical skills.

 

The 1.3s are quite quick really, they don't weigh a lot thanks to quality spanish steel.

The coupes are the most desirable shape, they're great cars and really well built. The only thing I didn't like about mine was the terrible terrifying brakes that made you want to open the door and put your shoe down on the tarmac.

[Negative Creep]

They are also contenders for the "most un-coupe like car to be branded a coupe award" that I just made up

I dearly miss my old 1043cc Polo and would encourage anyone to own one at least once.  They're superb little hacks, you really can't go far wrong if you want a little motor to get you around over winter.

I envisage a tin of matt black paint, Lowered springs and a roof rack for loadsa  OMG SCENETAX.
