Still here!!!

I'm feeling rather greedy with three boosted motors, someone else needs some enjoyment!

Would you be interested in a p/x with a Mk4 1.0? haha

  • Author

dependant on cash monies, i could be interested.

talk to me!

let me know if this gets broke please ill have the engine off you in a second, if not good luck with the sale

i would love to have 2grand right now :(

Is that the only rust on the car?

Is it just surface rust or will it need more work?

Also would you take px for my 1.6 6n forsale with the ronals, plus cash your way?

pm me your best cash offer plus your car and ill think about it

just surface rust, battery tray would probably do with attention, but all round every window is fine, as the the sills and valances. the jacking points will pass the mot in january and would probably again in 2013, but could do with some love.

the only giveaway the shell has done 183k is the clocks! its a credit to jason (g-spot) who owned this g40 for around 6 years

Do not let the pics of the rust put you off. They are very honest pictures and are no worse than when i owned the car almost a year ago now. Didn't put me off buying this beauty one bit and would be easy to sort if you wanted.

Nice shell and an awesome car that got compliments everywhere it went. I miss it.

Thanks Barney, much appreciated mate!

I'd much rather have pictures detailing all the niggles and bad spots rather than try and hide them.

cant believe noones even come to view it yet, poor g! I'm still loving driving it, its an absolute pleasure with a standard exhaust and suspension on!

car was given an oil change the weekend, castrol gtx 15w40 semi synth and a genuine g40 oil filter!

will get pics up on the stamped up service history booklet tonight

Forgot to add that the car does just over 100 miles to 15 quid as I do two days to work without fillin up and its a 50 mile round trip!

Still here, still not been viewed by anyone!!!

Only got a week before I go on holiday, so might take a decent offer, if someone actually comes and looks at the car, drop me a PM!

i have the money and prepared to travel, but insurance is way out of my legue (18 with 0 ncb) :@ :@ :@ :'( good luck anyway

  • Author

Buy it and do a full oem resto! By the time you've got a couple of years ncb under your belt a standard mint g should fetch a fair bit more than as numbers dwindle. Plus its a good chance to own a bit of true vw history

What I group insurance is it?

  • Author

No idea mate, I pay 700 odd 26 2 yrs ncb but a few claims recorded.

Now without alarm as yesterday the starter motor bit the dust and I was certain it was the immob. Hopefully it will be sprted bwfore I go on hols. Got a couple of spare starters to try

How about my derby and my left testicle? Its the size of a tangerine!

  • Author

as much as id like a tangerine sized bollock (makes for good bargaining) i'd rather take the right one, and your gf's left breast.

failing that i would px against another old polo, so i (and my housemate sally) can potter around in it

i have a mk 3 polo white chalkboard roof bonnet and boot stickerbombed door cards. its a 1.3 with yr mot and 6 month tax will u do a deal?

  • Author

pm me with more details and what you think the car is worth and we can go from there

please keep this till april :wink:

Hater! Worth a try though. If I wasnt saving up for a holiday then i'd snap your hand off for this!

Aahhh!!! I was going to pm you an offer on this and part ex for my GT. FUCKING INSURANCE!! Cheapest quote is 2300!

Do you still have this? Thanks, also would you be willing to drop the price couple of hundred or so.....? :?

Still got it dude. Someone needs to buy it before I get myself in to debt buying it.
