How old are you?

[samg40]

Quite interesting to see how many people have had them for a long time, speaks volumes I think!

I've had 2 G's (one white, one black) since 2002 and I'm now the grand old age of 29, so not as old as Pete!

[Yoof]

21- owned my Polo for 5 1/2 years now 

[Andy]

26, had the Polo for 8.5 years - had a PY lump in it for 6 years now.

[Shailan]

No you ain`t. I`m 44 and aint had a full working G yet.
Bought a conversion some time ago and scrapped the
shell coz of stress cracks beyond salvage.
On with rebuilding the engine and now have Tom`s/Juans
old Red G40 shell wich needs work as well.
Had a mk2 Polo C the 1 with a boot for 5 years on the road
and its been in me garden for 5 years as well being a storage shed
wich is about to be scrapped.
Had a pileoshite Fiat estate for 3 years and me latest 1Ltr Mk3 Polo coupe
for about a year as a run around.

41 - the oldest swinger in town (15 years ownership) - I win .... i think

[tdh-syorks]

haha ill leave it to you old fogeys to battle it out then, lol

[breadman]

I'm 42 but I don't consider myself too old to have my mk2 Polo project.
I'm sure most of my friends quietly think I'm a bit err, well too old for this kind of thing. Most of them are far more impressed by their flashy modern cars. Not me though.
I've had my mk2 breadvan for 7 years now, basically a superb condition low mileage car that I bought to go to and from work in. However, it was only a matter of time before I realised I could retro fit many of the later mk3 better parts and yet keep the much better looks (IMO) of the mk2.
I've had a couple of GT's and of course Alan Lawrences (Poloace) M reg black G40. This I stripped/scrapped and now have its 1341 engine in my breadvan.

im 28, and bought my first polo when i was 19, ive owned a fair few G40s saved a few, and scrapped a few, had my current G40 for 5 years i think

I get embarassed when all my mates are talking big flash cars, but that goes out of the window when you leave them sweating at traffic lights.

I do think, when will i grow out of G40's, ive come close, but i get drawn back, i will grow out of them when i want to!

[Alex]

I don't think I'll ever grow out of mine. I reckon it'll progressively look more standard as I get older though.

I don't think I'll ever grow out of mine. I reckon it'll progressively look more standard as I get older though.

That's funny you should say that, when I get mine back on the road I was thinking of putting the standard orange indicators and side repeaters back on.
