mk3 16v

Featured Replies

Make: VW

Model: polo genesis

Year/Reg: L

Mileage:

MOT: 7 months iirc

Tax: end of dec

Good points:

it's a mk3 fitted with a 1.4 16v engine from the mk4 polo, it's running the standard 16v injection system meaning it should be pushing 100bhp although it's de-catted with a bigger bore exhaust so maybe slightly more? either way it goes well. other than that it's got vw2 brakes with uprated disc's, clear indy's (although one is cracked), badgelss grill. it will come on mk2 coupe S alloy's and EITHER a 60 (ish)mm lowering kit or coilovers.

Bad points:

body work, it is solid but it has got it's fair share of dents that i will get some photo's of later. atm it has hydraulic suspension on it which will be coming, but this will leave 3 holes, one on each of the rear wheel arch tubes and one at the end of the 'transmission tunnel' leading into the engine bay. i will weld these up but you will be able to see that they have been there. the tick over hunts from 1500 to 2k, this started after i cleaned the throttle body and all the reading up i have done points towards it needing the idle reset with vag come, it has got the wiring there for the vag com but no the plug, this could be taken from any early to mid 90's scrap yard vw and is just a couple of wires to wire in, i just haven't got round to doing it.

sorry mate totally missed you, i'll pm it to you in a min. i won't be taking any deposits tho as i will still be using the car up until it's sold and if any thing happens to it i don't wanna have to be messing around sorting out some one's deposit for them.

also i should of made clear that the car is not available until after the weekend as it still has the hydro's on it and i'm not gonna get a chance to swap them off it till at least Sunday.

still for sale, no contact from buyer and i'm about to loose out on the car i'm wanting to buy.

the polo is all back together (coilies, interior ect fitted) and ready for test drive/sale.

Edited by McLOVIN

I knowww they're not for sale... BUT would you consider selling your coilies atall if you end up not having a polo to put them on in the near future? ;)

Pm me if you would

Cheers

Chris

If you come to sell the coilovers seperately i'll 100% have them off you.

Are these the PhilJ ones?

sorry lads this is no longer for sale. i'll be using it while i take my jetta off the road for a month or so then it's being stripped with all the good bit's going on my coupe S and it looks like the shell will be used to re-shell a bent GT that a local lad has.

the coilies will also be kept for the mk2
