well, if you REALLY want it, i've got one taking up space in my shed. it's maybe not in the best of conditions, but it works for now. if you're au fait with such things (i'm not) it might need one or other of the shaft bearings replaced, other than that it's fine, and was running ok (other than the occasional "is that a worn bearing??" symptoms) when i took it out. 1.3 spec (8p ratios minus 5th, 4.0625 diff). free to yourself if you collect, as i might get a quid for it from the scrapman and would probably spend as much in petrol getting it there.

north end, i've got junctions 6 and 7 within spitting distance (relative to chester, anyway) ----- see PM
though you might be as well to check the local scrapyards as any polo with a box still in it will probably be a 4-speed
(that's what i found when looking for my 5-shifter) and you might be able to talk them into giving it up for less than your petrol would be!
