My missus isn't a big petrolhead but she is missing her first car (long since sold) and it has been too long since I had a VW in the garage. I'm after a very early mk1 Polo, ideally with chrome bumpers and as original/standard as possible, the ideal car would be Florida Blue with no rust but I suspect this will be a long search and I'll have to be flexible. If anyone knows of one, or spots one online and can post a link/info here, I would be most grateful. I'd like to surprise her and hope there's a car out that that fits the bill. Thanks

Thanks, but I get "Sorry, we couldn't find that!", do you have to be registered perhaps?

Thanks Guz, appreciate that. Bit surprised that a shell and unassembled bits with not T&T is worth £5k!

Didn't realise about the price just remembered seeing a Mk1 for sale 5G's is a bit steep but this lad has sunk 13g's in the build.
It's only worth what it sells for oops on the link didn't know it was locked to members.
It's a solid shell with bucket loads of work already done.

Thanks. I don't mind doing a bit of work, but I don't want to have to rebuilt it from scratch and boxes of bits! I worry that there won't be (m)any original ones left any more. This is what I'm after ideally, Florida blue, chrome bumpers, standard:

Bit of a bump. I'm still after an early mk1 VW Polo. Don't mind something that needs a little LTC, don't want a rotbox, something modded beyond recognition or a million pound museum piece - can anyone help, please? Happy to pay a finders fee for the right car.

Not sure if you've already seen it but this is currently on ebay, all original and tidy Edit: Just seen that you don't want a million pound museum piece so it's probably out that way. Found this instead if it fits the bill?

A mate has a late mk1 that he is thinking of selling. Quick description of it he sent me on WhatsApp Depends how much detail you think he will want. You can give him my email address and explain I have a rolling shell with full immaculate interior. Body is very solid with minor surface rust on rear arches. A slight bit of rust on rear window seal. Otherwise full late spec car with all parts included minus engine and exhaust. and a pic of it when he got it i63.photobucket.com/albums/h136/HIGGO4/blacnblu003.jpg

No problem, just thought that seeing as engines are a lot easier to find than mk1's with a decent shell that ain't scene taxed to hell, it might be of interet.

Any location? How about germany? Meaning LHD, but that can be corrected... Found three light blue polos, 2x miami blue very original with painted steel bumpers and one light blue metallic, but as that one has been converted to g40 that may be a bit too far from what you are looking for?! No.1No.2No.3Vielen dank, Herr Woody, those Miami blue ones are perfect, I'm not up to converting to RHD though.
