The time has come to finally part ways with my beloved wife...i mean polo...

Owned this car for the best part of 8yrs and it's been extremely well looked after.

***PLEASE NOTE- THIS CAR IS STILL REGISTERED ON THE LOGBOOK AS A 1.4 16V AFH***- my insurer classed the engine upgrade as a 200cc increase and i insured it that way

The conversion has had no expense spared- all parts used on the vehicle are from a low mileage GTI and the car uses a FULL GTI interior, GTI wiring looms throughout, GTI ECU, clocks, steering column, subframe- EVERYTHING bar the 6N shell itself is a GTI! the mounting points within the bay itself have been seam welded for extra strength and the wiring is meticulously extended/shrink wrapped and recovered in new cloth tape.

New ball joints, bushes, bearings all round, brakes have tonnes of life left in them- the car is 110% mechanically sound!

Bodywork- a couple tiny scratchs that can be machined out and one or two dents (from being stored in the garage for 2yrs)

Serviced by myself every 6 months with a new filter and oil- i only use top qaulity Titan VW approved oil and a Bosch filter...

12Months MOT (Expires September 2014)

6 Months Tax (Tax will be paid for the buyer)

The engine has covered less than 3000miles since rebuild...it only went to a few shows in 2012, has been sorned since Early Edition Show 2012- sailed through the MOT without any issues!

would you consider a swap for a 1999 audi S3 quattro?

would you consider a swap for a 1999 audi S3 quattro?

Hi Mike,

tempting as it is...i kinda need cash for my house deposit i'm afraid and have a 20vt golf mk4 as a daily already...please let me know if you manage to sell the S3 and can buy my car :)

Vouch for this, the car is MINT. Dare not think how much you've spent on it!

Just so everyone knows...

the only changes made to the above car are:

1.) 8.5" G60 Banded steels all round (sit perfect within the arches)

2.) Standard GTI '1' interior- everything inside is stock GTI, bar the Momo steering wheel and pedal covers still in place.

3.) Stock Exhaust system and Airbox/Engine cover.

4.) Red MK5 all red rear lights instead of the LED ones and no HID's- just stock bulbs.

All bodywork, suspension, brake setup, engine etc are still the same...nothing has been removed here...

SPARE STANDARD BLACK BONNET INCLUDED IN SALE!

£3000 ono...it cost me over 2.5k to have the car resprayed and bodywork applied LET ALONE the engine setup/rebuild, wheels, suspension etc...so whoever gets this car will get a bargain!

Latest pics of the car- taken this evening- any panel gaps you may see are because either the bonnet or boot are on the latch and not closed.

**MODS- I'M SORRY I'M BUMPING THIS BY ADDING PICS, JUST BEING HONEST HERE...**

Ignore missing centre caps- i have the full set!

Engine bay (custom wiring loom hidden through chassis leg and bulkhead)

Interior:

Boot (battery is currently on a false floor- origional carpet is mint and included):

Push button start and bootlid release:

Pedals and steering wheel included:

The car is still sat here waiting for a new owner :(

come on peeps...someone must want a new project? its worth it...check out this parts breakdown:

FK Highsports- £300

Bodywork/Full respray in Subaru Mica Black (its jet black with gold speckles)-£2800

GTI Engine conversion including dash, full interior, clocks etc- £1000 easy- this doesnt even factor in the engine rebuild or gearbox rebuild!

Lights- an easy £150

Wheels- Banded steels with tyres- £500

Brakes- GTI rear disc conversion/G60 front brakes with black diamond pads/discs/goodridge braided lines all round-£350

That already comes to around 5k! doesn't even include the tax i just put on it, the alpine head unit...

£3k ovno is a good price for a great car! :) spare parts will be thrown in too for the new buyer.

Anyone at all interested in this but short of cash? talk to me...else it'll go up on the bay/piston heads.

I'd rather it go to a club member so it continues to remain on the scene ideally but drop me a pm and i'm sure we can sort something out, i need the space more than the cash.

Now listed on Pistonheads with even newer photos:

This car would be ideal if you're considering a polo GTI engine swap into a 6N...just look at the specs! its worth it...

Fancy selling the G60's? If so what's your price
