MK2 Polo Saloon

oh an err... appologies for the pile of crap photos. Its what you get from a pile of crap camera

pictures look better then ones i take

looks in good nick

82k low mileage both my pandas have half that and are older

but on an 18 year old car, averaging at around 4500 miles a year, its very low milage.

Plus, I wanted a reliable run around with tax and mot. Not a panda.

saloon rare as poop! slam it on some deeeep rimmage

wow its been ages since i last saw one of them on the road!

Awesome!

Love the car

Looks tidy too

Sorry but Polo saloon is about the ugliest thing ever.. Much prefered the hatchback with a dual light grille.


bit harsh - looks in good condition though. It been in cryo-storage or something?

Going by some of the reactions of turned heads and looks from the older generation, neither have most people

woah dont besorry. I know its an ugly car heh The coupe/hatch is a much nicer looking thing but I bought it because of the service history, length of tax and mot and the price. Not for looks. its souly a run around and thats it. All i plan to spend out on it is keeping it in the condition its in. Im not modding it

We had a Y reg with over 100k on the clock. It was that wierd ecconomy model with a mpg needle. Same shade of red as yours.


Formel E it was... Wierd little car.

Love it.

Some new piccies from today for anyone who's interested

I gave the faded wing a proper MOP polish and its come up gorgeous. very very slightly different colour to the rest of the car but probably only noticable to me Atleast its nice and shiny and all one colour now

ooh shiney you wanna mop polish my mr2 for me at all?

Come up nicely - The interior is dead on aswell!

Got yourself a bargain and a nice little motor!!

Now I know its a run around but ive already started thinking what I can do to mod it lol.

I took the front bumper off today to see if there was any damage to the front lower panel, which there is slightly but its only been pushed in. Unfortunatly, it wont push back out and the front lower panels are very cheap anyway so I plan to replace it.

Whilst the bumper was off I couldnt help but notice how awsome it looked without the bumper very old skool euro stylee and with a little bit of smoothing it could look even better!

A quick photoshop later -



Maybe not round indicators but either way, i think it looks very very cool and will cost literally £10 to do with the current front panel. A new front panel is around £30 and they ide have to spray it so its something for the summer I think, but using the current panel would looks fine for now Only thing is, I cant smooth it without spraying it and it wouldnt be worth spraying if im getting a new panel. So i dont think ill do it just yet, but I recon Ill do it anyway

Would need to get a new no plate and surround first to mount on. Thinking pressed metal ones. Will similar bumper removal to the rear too. Not quite sure the rear will look as cool though as it hasnt got a lower apron. Will see.

Meh, the rain stopped and I got bored so I took the rear bumper off for a lookie too A little bit of shoppage later and we have a smooth rear



Im pretty pleased with that! So as soon as the weather gets a bit warmer, the bumpers are coming off

oh no here we go again

chris its just gonna make it harder to sell later, leave it be
