Andy_Polo 10 Posted August 10, 2012 Recently got an early spec 2 liter valver after owning a Polo for 4 years The Polo The new toy :D I was a little worried about getting insurance on it as im only 22, only have two years driving experience and my job is classed high risk. After searching for insurance and the quotes coming up at well over 3k i was starting to think i would have to give up and sell it. I then had an email from a classic car insurance company so thought it would be worth a shot so i made a phone call and got it covered for just under a grand which is brilliant and less i was paying on my 1 liter Polo!! Im chuffed to bits with the Corrado...the increase in power from the Polo is crazy. Its lowered 40mm on just springs and standard shocks....its safe to say those standard shocks will be off in no time Its got a decat Powerflow exhaust which sounds great. Its got a set of 15x7j BBS alloy, not sure if i like them or not, would ideally like something with some dish It has a few problems that need seeing to, its got steam coming out the vents in the dash. No service history at all so its having a complete overhaul...full service, headgasket, waterpump, timing ect. The bonet catch doesnt work and it needs a new wing due to a bit of rust Not sure what the plans for it are, all i know is there will be an engine transplant over winter VR or 20vt not sure yet Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
