Here's how I got my polo. Bought for £80 from an elderly couple in my local town.

Drove it to the MOT centre, taxed it, cleaned it up and here's how she stands after a week of owning her

Bargin! Looks clean!

cheers man! yeah it's really clean. Couple of rusty areas here and there but nothing that can't be saved

1986? Wonder if that's Mars Red or Tornado Red. It looks faded slightly, but not pink more orange if you know what I mean...

Looks well boss nice work for a week!

I'd get rid of that FUCN LOW sticker myself but hey. I agree with the non smoking sticker though.

Yeah when I took those pics it had been sat on my drive for a while with no work done to it since the week after I got it. Went out there today and fitted some new wheels and gave it a t-cut and its all nice and red again - mars red.

Haha I love the non smoking one, got a non smoking rubbery sticker on the dash as well.

yeah will be getting a respray eventually. Not a fan of black painted bumpers on them I just bumper wax them, didnt do it before the pics so they look a bit faded from the months of sitting in a drive

I will try...
