Green VW Polo 1.0l 1988 Saloon.

I loved it, was an amazing car to drive and was fairly nippy.

Had it 2 years to get the NCB but needed £200 worth of work doing to pass the MOT, t'wasnt worth it in the end frown

Gutted!

my first car was a 1.2 nova which i bought for £35.00 what a heap of sh1t that was, i sunk £200.00 into it to make it look like a decent car with the reg plate being C***COW and did i get some stick over that plate anyway i took it for its m.o.t and it failed on everythink except the bloody LIGHTS i was gutted to say the least, also found out that the hole bloody car was a death trap and that it was rusted every where but i couldn't see it i didn't want to see it but the b*tch got the better of me and it had to go, anyway i took it to me local scrappy and they said that i would have to pay them to take it away so i went to me other local scrappy and they gave me £25 quid for it and that was the end of that.

And 10 months down the line i buy me misses a vw golf and what a car in half that is, we have had it know for about 15 months

citroen ax jazz 954 cc 5dr in white cost me £575, 3 months down the line i found a 5dr axgt, bought the gt the day before the tax ranout for £20 and spent the next day gutting the poor car, i mean everything had to go in to mine. Once i removed the carpet i found about £8 underneath. 4 hours later took the car to the scrapy and sold it for £10. So in all for £2 i got full gt interior and bumbers and plenty of spares. Then some bugger crashed into the side of me and wrote it off, Gutted
