Our old polo

Featured Replies

I have had a few pm's asking about the car in my avatar and asking for photos. Here it is! It was owned by my dad and was sold a couple of years back - i just used to do the driving part (hard life ay).

I know it's not gonna be most peoples cuppa tea, but may appeal to some...

1.4 16v 140 bhp

Proflex suspension all round

LHD

Multipoint cage

etc ect usual rally goodies

Below is a quick vid taken by one of my mates coming down my driveway (almost catching my dog :oops:)

Here's another vid. Sound really muffled - not a touch on what it really sounded like. Crap video on camera phone... Still a nice lil vid though ;)

Jenvey is just the manufacturer of the throttle bodies.

Loooks like a fun little toy if I do say so myself!

Looks like a quality piece of kit!

So did you compete much?

What are you driving now?

Photos of the engine bay?

Edited by Tav

looks awesome

did you sell this on ebay a while back, I'm sure i saw it there

140bhp is good, was that limited to that power for competition use, could more power be had out of it

mike

sexy as fook!!!

Absoloutely class man.

How come you didn't strip the interior further, door cards etc.?

love it mate,,,sounds amazing...

because a door card weighs about the same as a piece of fluff?

I think it's a common misconception that race cars are totally stripped...then people go and remove everything from their interior...even the dash. If you look at ALOT of race cars they'll still have some form of dash board and door cards etc.

nice to see another rally car on here. looks a nice car.
