Hey there all, newbie here, just bought my first polo this last week, lovely little converted g40  ;D very happy to have a nippy lil motor again.. makes driving alot more fun !! Purchased off my good friend off here Mr.Batten, i know its got some history on here from what ive read already with phil & g-conversion by nick..  :P

Given the engine a little degrease & clean this morning, still not quite there yet but only had an hour earlier to spend on this sunny bank holiday, also had quick shampoo yesturday  ;) few pics to follow in post...
