Bought A Minter!
« on: October 21, 2008, 11:18:51 pm »
Some of you will know I'm quite good at hunting out bargain polos, but this is up there with the best! I only picked it up earlier tonight so i appologise for the poor quality pictures...

Up until January this year,it appears this was with its original owner.Between then and now its had 2 owners,the most recent being a young lad whos fitted the nasty 15's :'(  .When i heard how low the mileage was,i was tempted to make him an offer so i could use it for a g40 conversion, but now the gearbox has gone so i bought it off him even cheaper!

13k Miles in 16 years!

jesus! how is it possible to have such a low mileage over so long? 

Looks like it'll make a great project base.

Wow that certainly does look clean.

The gearbox is knackered though? Whats up with it?

got a stamped service book,looks like it was just used for local shopping trips etc. Not sure whats happened with the box,not had chance to investigate yet but its something major as it covered the trailer in gearbox oil! The lad i bought it off has only had it a month or so too!

i haven't done much with it since i bought it to be honest,got a few other projects on the go. Currently debating wether it will actually get the g40 engine in it.
