2001 Polo GTi Silver - SOLD

Featured Replies

I am thinking about selling my Polo in the near future and getting something a bit newer :)

It is a 6n2 Polo GTi in Silver with 95,000 and is unfortunately registered as a Cat C on HPI. I bought the car with the damage with plans to fix it and sell it on but I loved it some much I decided to keep it. The damage was to the driver's side and had dented the door, wing and sill. I have replaced the wing and the door but have not got around to fixing the sill as of yet but it has passed two MOTs like it so not that bad. At present I have taken the front bump strip of the bumper to get respray due the paint being damaged from stone chips from driving down to university.

I have owned the car for about a year and a half and have no problems with it apart from a gearbox failure - which I have had reconditioned and refitted along with a new clutch. I have a receipt for this at £622.36. In January my dad booked it in for a service and had the following done: All filters, Spark plugs, Oil Change, Front Pads & Disks, Checked all fluid, Four tyres as previous owner had put really cheap tyres on. This all came to a massive £652.29 HT Leads were changed just after the service as one failed at another £50. I have also had to rear back box of the exhaust replaced although I currently cannot find the receipt. I have other service history from the previous owner with a hell of a lot more spent on it. I also have the service book with VW service history up to 54,000. The Cambelt was changed in December 2007 at 71,000 so is good for a while yet.

The car has MOT until April next year and tax until the end of September, and with it being a slightly newer GTi is comes under the cheaper tax bracket.

The car has been extremely well looked after although it has normal marks around it according to its age and other people inabilities with their doors in car parks!

UPDATE

The car had a brand new Cambelt Kit fitted yesterday and the timing realigned as one of the cambelt tensioners had broken. Luckily only the timing had slipped and no damage was caused to the engine. I have the receipt for this at £291.55. I am collecting a brand new sprayed bump strip this afternoon and this will be fitted so the car will be ready to go.

Picture of the previous damage when I bought the car. As you can see it is minimal and not like the usual completely smashed Cat C cars.
