Title: 1992 Polo G40 Ex show car, Surrey - £1800
Post by: Phil on December 01, 2013, 06:20:55 pm
This was a show car doing the rounds years ago, had a very nice paint job in lupo green with various modifications which are listed below.

The car has loads of history, the MOT ran out a while ago and hasn't been renewed. The car was on 109k previously, I removed the dials as they were chrome and replaced them with some standard G40 dials. The mileage wasn't adjusted, but these were just before the car was last MOT'd which showed around 115k if I remember correctly (will check) they now read 117, 650. Minor increase in mileage but should be noted for its history.

It has a recent H&R 40mm cup kit, and the lower arms were done for the last MOT, although these aren't the genuine G40 rose jointed lower arms. Wheels are 15x7 et25 with toyos and decent tread although one has gone flat. Brakes are 280mm, with a 22mm master cylinder.

The engine, box and charger are all sound. The only issue the car has is a charging fault where the car looses charge, probably the alternator. The car will drive if you bring a decent battery. I might even have a spare alternator. It has a smaller pulley, chip, custom pipework, front mount intercooler, longlife stainless exhaust, GT injector jackets, alloy header tank, and a few chromed/polished bits.

The interior needs a clean, and the drivers doorcard has distorted. There is some speakers in the car but no head unit.

The car is in Surrey

£1800

Indeed, personally I'd like to see it more stock, IE stock half CC'd bumpers and arch trims, but with the rallye front end.

Hi I'm interested in it too.  Anything I should know and how comes it didn't have an MOT?

It's all the way in Glasgow now and I'm in Kent whish I had picked up on this when it was sold before.

New to this but had a lovely black 40 with RH cups.  Need to relive the days as sold it for a 944 convertible which want to sell as very nice just and beautiful but a bit low on the excitement radar.  Thanks

He's not on here as far as I know. This isn't his for sale thread so if he is he can make one with his contact details etc.
