Thanks George

Just wanted to let everyone know how big a help George was in trying to sort out the Polo.

Couldn't have asked for more from him, even though the issue turned out to be terminal

So, many thanks for all your help.....and don't worry, I haven't forgotten about the battery!

awww cheers mark sorry we couldnt get any further with it, but hey, at least we tried
Good luck with the prospective LUPO tho
i love me bus...but would be fucked without the passat!

Sadly the Lupo turned out to be a piece of shit, as well as not really being to practical for a gentleman of my stature.

I do however now own a very tidy, low mileage Ford Focus.

I fancy a lopo

Arosa man, lupo flavour at half the price cant beleive i got 6500 snotters for a lupo gti on a y plate! too pricey! little pocket rocket roller skated tho.

hmmm, chip broke? immobolised? could be hiding all sorts of faults, if its only 80 odd quid to get the chip sorted why havnt they done it, the car would sell much better if running. i dont like the sound of it toast, leave it. seen it before, someone had a cheapo orfa fleabay and the engines been fucked after they sorted the keyfob. thought they were getting a cheap motor but ended up scrapping it in, as it was knocking like a whorehouse headboard.
there all pretty slow man, the 1.4's are ok, i just dont really know why lupos are so much more money.

Ye I don't lime it anyway . I fancy the 1.4 tdi one . Is it the same motor as the polo ?

Toast, i beleive so man, if its anything like the cupra vs gti then seat will get more power and better mpg outa the same engine!

Mark, i been thinking about that water down by the plug,,....wheres that come from then?

No idea, can only think it was built up condensation from it having been stood around before I bought it. Anyhow, now I've dried it out and chucked a new set of plugs in it's running fine. Well apart from the speedo keep dropping out on the way home and the car stalling when stopping for lights
