I had a couple of these. The issue was always that the drive from the gearbox to transfer box was through a woefully under engineered shaft. The splines on this shaft would strip and it was game over. This wrote most BX 4x4s off prematurely. I considered various options for a fix but once the few useable spares dried up you really only had the choice of reverting to 2wd.

Lupo 14" steels...

seller's wrong, they're off a Golf G60 or a Passat. Dubbers fit them to Lupos a lot though.

That's not my cousin's experience when he bought a brand-new 2f.

The facelift added a servo. I’m sure your cousin is an expert, but I agree with @wuvvum, having run two each of both pre-and post-facelift mk2 Polos as my regular drivers for years.

Not everything in the world is quite as miserable as you think.

Ah, good old G60 steels. That takes me back to buzzwords of Volkswagen ownership in times past.  Never did run a set of them though.

Didnt @St.Jude have a hankering for one of these

And to be fair he's barely had to weld lately, there's no way he's sick of it at the moment
