Hey All
« on: April 07, 2008, 09:03:59 pm »
Hey, Glad to see this is all up and running now!   Heard rumours this was going to happen.   Shame about the pitstop forum!  >_<

I used to be a member of the pitstop forum and am a member of UK-Polos.   I have a J plate G40 that some of you may remember.   Completely stock even down to the radio.   Well, she's nearly stock, i'm working on it!

have a daily driver which is a vento but due to getting a new job in a new location, i've had to leave the polo behind.   there will be a time when i'll get her down with me, but for now, shes all tucked up in a garage at my parents!  Fully road worthy so whenever i go home, i can have a blast!  she still hasn't had the charger rebuild and is on low millage, covered about 1500 last year!   think the total stands at about 86k.

Anyway, a couple of the most recent pics of the old girl









Does anyone remember her?   Used to have a tonne of pics up on the Pitstop forum!

I have seen your name on the PSD forum and when i've been brousing club polo.   you used to have a G40 van didn't you?   and i think i remember you selling a tornado red G40 with half colourcoded bumpers and a low millage iirc?  was interested in that before i got mine but didnt' have the money!

hello mate, glad to see you've still got yours, haven't seen you on UK-P for ages!   ahh, my old blue mk3



She was sold a couple of years back, and the last thing i heard, a G40 lump had been dropped in her!  :)

That would be standard G40 suspension.  I did give it a bit of a flick as i came round the corner so thats why it looks a little unsettled!   But i'd imagine its getting quite tired after 17 years on the car!   Its something i'd like to change at some point in the future, but keeping with the standard kit.   Oh, and there were three people in the car! haha
