UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Hey guys. Being the immensely useful bunch you are I was wondering if anyone knew of anyone who does roll cages for the 6n?

Oh and not that half show cage please, that looks like if you rolled it would snap into a hundred pieces and your face would become the new mounting point .

Thanks all

Ash

My 6n2 was a nightmare for idling. From what I recall any number of things case it. I just began to ignore mine, it only stopped when I had a new exhaust, temp sensor, and lamda so it was probably one of those!

Well, I've decided that I'd enjoy going as fast as possible but without risking my licence. With that in mind and my previous lovely polo experience I've decided to buy a base 6n and turn it into a track day car as cheaply as possible for a bit of fun.

I'm going to pick myself up a <1k 1.4 or 1.6 ...

Some great points there, thanks for all the input guys.

I take your point on getting bored of the car but I'm really in no way bored with mine, I just wish it was a bit faster and in better condition!

Is there any obvious way to differentiate between the 75 and 100 bhp models?

What's the diff ...

I see your point but I can get an absolutely mint 1.4 SE, 30k 1 owner (you know the type) for less than 4k.

To get a similar spec GTi you're looking at £5500! And it's probably had the arse thrashed off it! I know it would if it were mine

Ok so I've owned my 1.0E for nearly 4 years now and frankly, I couldn't have asked for a more perfect first car.

That said, I have not treated it as well as I might and it's a bit tatty these days.

So, I'm going to sell it and I'm thinking of replacing it with a 1.4SE.

So I'm looking for ...

Is the code for the 2000 W reg 6n2 1.0E ALD.AUC?

I only ask because I need some new air filters and spark plugs.

Another question.

How much should I be paying for Air Filter and Spark Plugs??

Oh dear :oops:

I have not had it serviced since since 04/05/04 at 29,000 miles.

It's now done just short of 55000 :oops:

All I've done since then is had a new back box fitted, new sparks, kept the oil topped up, one new coil and had the breaks done all round.

Blimey!

Hmm, I'm considering ...

Hi everyone,

The car just feels a bit sluggish starting, was just wondering if anyone has any ideas what it might be. It's overdue a service a bit.

I was going to get the spark plugs and the air filters changed.

Any other ideas anyone?

Hi everyone.

So I'm looking to get a new HU since my old Alpine one was stolen.

I was going to get some new speaker too, but I bought Focal V Slim 165 Polyglass and they were about £180 so I'm assuming they're pretty good.

Only problem is the one of the left hand side doesn't work!

Could it ...

Ok I filled up with oil today and drove off without putting my cap back on, my oil cap is now somewhere in standish .

Can you buy new ones from VW? I drove home with it and it didn't blow up but I don't think it's too good an Idea??

Anyone.?

Please accept my apologies for this terrible terrible post.

My car has just failed its MOT on a wheel failure. They're trying to bend it back into place but it might (and knowing my luck, will) snap.

So I'm wondering where the best place to get either...

A set of 4 13" steel stock wheels.

1 x ...

To be honest though, I really don't like the new Polo GTi *runs*. So the next car is either a 6n2 GTi or a Fox.

What's this going to do to the price of the 6n2 GTi's?

I've already seen a couple on auto trader for around 4k!

Sorry, this isn't as exotic and interesting as normal.

My totally normal standard polo suspension I fear is going.

How much would it be for totally standard new suspension all around?

Does anyone know?

Thanks

Ash
