- Basicaly striped a Polo GL for all reusable bits to keep the bread van on the road !!

Bad points:

RUST!!!

- Tailgate has a bad rust spot under the spoiler which will need some TCL. I have a replacement tailgate which could be fitted in replacement

- Driverside has had a few light scraps which have been 'painted' over in what looks like hammer right. Rust is coming thru agin, but a guess another rub down and paint will put that to rest for another couple of years

- Ever though they passed, I would look to replace the tyres asap. Loads of tread, side walls are cracked etc. The spare is still original and unused!

- Radio has been removed but I have an upgrade CD player available to plug in - Note: The radio kills the battery overnight even when turned off !!!

Location:

Bedford in Bedfordshire

History:

Car was owned by 2 old boys locally and had covered 17k miles when I picked her up 2 years ago.

Old MOTs indicted she had only covered 100miles a year and the oil was still gold when I check the dip stick.

I've used her as a station car and averaged 5 miles a day with an occational long run to clear out the cog webs.

Was intending to run the car and teach the kids how to drive in it - but got the itch for something newer. Need to figure if I can scratch that itch!

I'll post up pics if there is any interest/offers.

Sorry chaps - been away for the w/e...

Thxs for the interest.

I'm going to hold off selling the van due to future job location uncertainty - if I'm back on the train, then best to hang onto her.

Cheers - M
