from the description looks like it had its heart ripped out of a working, solid g40...

shame...

ive only ever broken or stripped ones that i deem unfixable, bit of a going law that i cant strip one that is repairable...


i hope this one sees glory again...

It is a bad way to go about it, but people want things NOW and for cheap so it may be their only option :(

iirc its the guy on CP who converted the black mk3 saloon which is now two tone orange duracell battery stylee!

iirc that was g40 mikes on clubpolo? From what i remember it was partially prepped for a respray but then sold on ebay.

I've never stripped one that was salvageable with a sensible amount of money.

there are a couple of cp members around that area and i'm only half hour away.

Does seem a shame though. Haven't seen many green ones. Would buy it if i knew how to rebuild it (and had a spare engine obviously!)
