Bad Points:

Wipers will not come on

The car has a new battery but only starts from Jump Leads

Car will not tick over (Either air intake pipe is split or Idele speed/ choke needs looking at)

Needs a good machine polish

Comments:

Picking this lil beasty at the weekend, will get it mot'd and tax'd pronto and itll be a daily driver while I take my golf gti off the road for some remedial work (Clutch, Crankshaft oil seal & welding)

Plans:

Machine Polish

Mot & Tax

Cheap Lowering kit or buy my old coupe s back and swap over the 70/60 hnr kit, exhaust and g40 running gear, sell the old coupe s as standard.

---- End original post ---

So I went to Brecon from Derby to pick the lil beasty up - pics taken by Steve - Yeti

quite apt the colour scheme of the petty station and cars

More mission pics (aka the back of a car)

Steve played catch up for most of the journey

It doesn't go bad either

Loving the last pic, was starting to wonder if the van was still there.

174 miles later it was at the MOT station

and I was left with a 3 page 40 item list of fail =/

so a month later, the day after the mot was done the car had its first outing at VWNW, Tatton Park

then at edition 38 - with some new wheels.

I have a fetish for the OZ "routays"

and then the quest for more power was sought

current guise

winter camo

and then I blew it up

collected another afh engine from Bantan

picked up at 4 in leeds, back to manchester and in the car by 8, with thanks to G40 AD and the Macc crew for the help! total stars guys!

a bit more complete now

gettin taxed tomo morning and first meet on sunday woohoo =D

Edited 9 August, 201114 yr by grungeisdead

cool. good to see some one on here bought this little beauty

was very tempted by blondie several times, and dene4368s yellow one when he had it up for sale (prior to scrapping) but didnt go through with them either time!

always loved the yellow coupe s's, i still want 86cs so when i saw this up for sale, at a bargain price, i had to buy it.

looking forward to letting karlie loose on it with a machine polisher =D

mots now arranged for saturday morning, woohoo!

just got to sort out insurance and take a spare wiper motor, relay and stalks down with me and hopefully itll pass with flying colours =]

Nana-olop. Alaways a posi

I love this!

Purchase bill present and the car cost £5299.

Miles? Or did I miss that haha

aye you missed it, 119k

and i have the original purchase bill for charlie murphy too =D

was watching this on ebay as well.. looked like it went for a bargain but no cash atm or i'd have been bidding too.

yellow has to be the best colour on the coupe s...

good luck getting it back to manchester and getting the mot done.

cheers dude, long time no see!

Yeh after seeing steves yellow peril i needed to have one in yellow! and a bargain it definatly was! shouldnt really be buying another car without tax and mot but to be honest its too good an offer to miss!

spoke to vosa and the dvla and there is absolutely no restriction on which mot station i use as long as its pre appointed, so i have booked one in pershore, one in manchester and one in derby and ill just see which one i can be bothered driving to on the saturday!

biggest issue is going to be working out why it wont start unless it has jump leads connected! dodgy earth i think! just means if the car cuts out at a junction ill have to wave jump leads at people frantically until someone stops and hooks me up!

I'm special Loving the interior, it's almost as good as mine in Roxy

Lovley little car hope it finds the road again one day

Edited 24 June, 200917 yr by MartinPolo 1.4

do eeeeet

and cheers martin, it will be on the road proper sharpish like =] need it as a daily while i get some welding done on the golf

cheers dude, long time no see!

yeh mate, been a bit hectic (and v v skint) last few months. will have to hook up again soon though. wanna see your golf as well as this..

you not going with a backup car to jump start you if needed?

what about sticking a spare fully charged battery in the boot so you can jump yourself if you can't get it sorted easily? i got a spare battery in my garage if you need to borrow one, but sure you got loads lying around..

I'm special Loving the interior, it's almost as good as mine in Roxy

Got the same interior in my GT, took it out of an A reg Coupe S in the scrappy.

respect,kinda polo treasure.take care of it and show him the needed tlc

nice one, woudl look pimp on a certain set of mims i reckon mate..

Lol! Id want 14s ideally as i have a set of fresh 185/50/14s in the hoose. castalettes in white ftw

cheers dude, long time no see!

Hey man, Yeh pop down whenever your free dude, will be trying to crack on with getting the brakes done on the loop in the next couple of weeks so i can get it back on the ground, and then concentrate on finishing modifying the engine mounts. could always do with some extra hands =]

The plan about taking another battery down is a good un, ill probably just take the battery from my golf with me and some jump leads, only problem is, as the car wont hold its idle, is gettin out, giving the car a jump start, trying to close the bonnet and get back into the car to drive off without it cutting out! haha should be fun, worst comes to worst get the aa to tow the behatch
