"some idiot removed the door handles and replaced them with something substantially less usable" probably is one of the 'usual issues' if you're into Beetles.

Matt Posted May 10, 2016 Share Posted May 10, 2016 It didn't, it's a Golf engine in those (more or less). Either or I guess. I'm sure VW weren't making two 1.3's at the same time and I think the 1.3 would have been more popular in the Polo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
