Did you have to get a friend to help you lift the batt out mate?

Good work mate how are you finding your carbs? Is your afh still pulling strong, you must have done a few thousand by now :)

Carbs are good, yeah. engine still pulls well.

lol Nick, prick!

I just cant get this idea out of my head...

This will be for sale in January!

I'm not taking stuff off, it will go as it is. It will have tax and mot.
Price, i haven't a sodding clue.

If any of you are genuinely interested, drop me a pm.

Time for pastures new.

but your's is tighter.

Wow respect to do all your stuff in and at that garage, i am in the same situation, i just can work on the polos on good weather days when it's not raining in front of the garage like you do with your polofriends on some of these pictures.

Respect most of all to what you did to the polo, nice thread. thumbs up.

cheers

Christian

Thanks Christian

How come you want to sell up? What you got in mind for a replacement?

Not entirely sure tbh.
Want to start from scratch with an old Porsche

If you do which is a shame a porsche is epic

Finally got some motivation to do something.
MOT tomorrow at 10

Today started like this...

Got her started, pumped tyres up, checked all the usual stuff for MOT and then realized i had issues....
Now the RA's are on, i cant turn without tyres making aggressive love to my arches

Removed inner arches which has helped a little

Wish me luck for my MOT in the morning, cant imagine it going overly well lol. Unless i can get an arch roller for about 7am in the morning.

Somehow, this passed the MOT with no advisories

Did do this on my short journey too and from the garage though

Yayyyy !

Don't sell it man :)

Sweet...

God knows what I'm going to do with it anymore.
I dont wanna get rid, but i want a change. Cant keep and have another car, not possible.

Glad to be getting it back on the road either way, loved the blast too and from the garage.

Don't think i mentioned before, but the passenger side lock had gotten stuck after being stood.
Had to pull the pin up insode the car with plyers to get it open, but couldnt lock it after

Anyway, had a look at it today. Just turned out to be a seized CL pump, luckily i have 6 brand new ones spare so that was an easy fix.
Locks and un-locks far quicker now, may change the drivers side one if i can be bothered as its a little slow compared.

Should have an arch roller by the weekend, so that will see the fronts rolled and hopefully clearing the tyre. Then its all ready for tax in feb
Excited to have it back, even though ill have zero money for petrol for a month as I've far too much going on in feb :(

Arches rolled muthafuckas

Paint has cracked to fuck, but I'm done caring it seems

Gotta modify the inner arches a little and then they can go back in. No more catching though (on a test drive i went on) so all's good.

26 pages ooooh you dirty boy. I'm back you missed me?

lol Teags! Simply cant believe your back in a polo, whatever happened? haha
26 pages of greatness :P

i put the arch liners back in but they rest on the top of the lip now it's rolled if you understand me, not got any nicer wheels for it anymore?

Hahahaha mate i couldnt afford a TT anymore having to commute 50mile round trip everyday, in a right sexy polo shes a beaut

Broken Shed!! Oil everywhere.........

Still no idea? Or it fecked.

Turned out to be nothing, on closer inspection its all over the wheels and up the sides, must have driven through something and it sprayed everywhere.
or it was from the insides of the wheels as i hosed um down.

God knows, nothing broken though thank god.

After UD I've been doing a lot of thinking, the car has been the only thing on my mind today
This coming winter may see some changes

Yeahhhh!!!!!!!

do it now, sooner!! Before winter!

haha nah, will be ready for next summer hopefully.
We could be talking about different plans here though, who knows

Natural Progression is the phrase I'm using for these changes
