Hi there, only just signed up.
On the lookout for a MK5 (6N2?) Polo GTi, anything up to £4k, maybe a little more...
Preferably standard, but if it's on coilovers thats great (not sure how common that is round here?), reasonable mileage (<70k), black possibly? Colour isn't really an issue...
What are the kind of things to look out for? Am i right in thinking its gearbox's and pedals box's that tend to go on these?
Thanks for any help!

Yeh you wanna look out for the gearboxes, they're prone to going, they have a weak 5th gear bearing (its plastic?!), the GTi also had a re-call on all pedal boxes,
Here's two Quick examples I know are for sale

Cheers Tim_GTi for your help so far
Unfortunately the (amazing) modified one, which I'm a little gutted i missed out on, has sold it seems, and the other 140k one is a bit out of my mileage range... this one seems nice, but its in Scotland, bit far away! But i do appreciate you helping, hopefully one will spring up soon
