79 mk1 Polo GLS

OK so i got this a couple of wks ago,been meaning to post it up,but thought i`d hold u in expense for a while.Had my eye on it for over a decade now but finally got my hands on it,but now i have it,i dont know what i want to do with it! I really want to modify it a bit with better brakes and handling and definately a new motor,but i have others on a few forums that are going to burn me at the stake if i do anything to it!BUT,im in 2 minds to keep it or sell it at themoment,got another mk1 G60 and an BMW E21 drawing my attention so money and time and also space are a problem!So heres a few pics before i make up my mind wether to sell or not!

That car is truly beautiful.  DO NOT change a thing! The colour, the interior are all perfection in my book.  I have relatives and a place near Port St Mary if you wanna drop it off there and pic up the cheque….  :wink:  :lol:

Love it! I saw your post over on the MK1 Polo forum too.  8)

It's a shame these aren't as highly valued and appreciated as Mk1 Golfs, a guy on the Mk1 polo forum had one with about 5K miles from new and it still only realised about £1500!  :cry: (The new owner then tried to list it on numerous sites for £10K but it didn't sell!). That's got to be worth near to a Mk1 Golf in similar condition surely!

I'd hang on to it if I were you, but if you do sell it I hope that a new owner will cherish it and keep it original.

I wish ours was as 'box fresh' as that!

I love it.. Enter it as car of the month.. I don't care if its not a mk1 golf, it is close enough to the heart and rare enough to be of interest to everyone on here I should imagine.. If you sell it, let us all know.. :)

Yeah i know what u mean mate,i wish it was a 40k mk1 golf,but i think i saw the low milage one u mean,it was later than mine with horrible plastic bumpers etc,they dont quite look anywhere as good as the ones from before 80!But anyway im not too bothered wether i sell it or not,the only object i have at the moment is space,i have 8 cars at the moment and cant keep them all,but have plans for them all and because this is the newest addition i took on at 1st glance,it didnt really hit home that i havnt got room for it until a few days later,its way too good to leave outside,so at the moment is in one of my garages taking up a space that was already taken by another.If i could find a place for it then perhaps i will hang onto it but i would want to change it a bit to make it tolerable,but in a way i dont want to ruin it!

Stunning, not many left in that condition, and certainly not in that colour. Keep it original or sell it
to someone who will. Would be a bit of a shame to mess around with it.

But at the end of the day its your car and you can do what you want with it though, dont listen to me!.
