r.i.p. polo

As if my week couldn't get any worse. My pride and joy is now dead and for once it wasn't my fault!! driving around innocently last nite around 12ish and a yuppie lookin merc decides to t-bone me at junction. complete write-off. He done a runner before the feds turned up.Think he was pissed. just rebuilt the bloody engine too. absolutely gutted. proper. :(

Im sorry to hear that mate... I don't suppose the insurance will help out much will it? That's a bummer..

Sorry to here that mate

dont suppose theres any cctv anywhere is there? could check to catch the tw4t.

chances are, if he's damaged your car that bad, he'll have a badly busted front end too. get searching fella

Well they got his details n all that, but dont think i'll get anythin really. still cant beleive it. anyone out there who knows where i can find another polo coupe 1300 for sale give us heads up. hopefully i can save most of my parts and fit em to another one:( :(

oh, his car was f**ked mate. he pegged it. didnt drive it away. the ambulance guy was into dubs and he said if Id been drivin a dagenham dustbin or some other s**te car i would've been in a bad way. That i'm very gratefull for. tink he hit me about 45mph in my side door. :( :(

You'll only need a shell mate. engine is plug and play into all models

If they have his details then you should be able to claim off him unless he was uninsured.

thats a real shame. was a really nice car.

hopefully you will get payed out for it and he will get done good and proper

did i see you yesterday on elizabeth way bridge in cambridge? ifso thats a real shame and a waste of a nice car i hope you can get something out of the guy who crashed into u

Sorry to hear that, was a nice car. :(

I thought i recognised the car when i saw it sat there in the middle of the road last night, the merc was a right bloody mess, yours didn't look to bad but i only saw the rear end!!! I hope your ok as it looked like it might have hurt a little bit!

As like everybody does i was trying to work out what happened as i was driving home lol!!!!

real shame mate, hope your alright. You should have robbed loads of parts off the merc and ebayed them, that might have payed for a few things.

Awwwwwww..... shite luck dude

Still, glad to hear you're ok.

unlucky dude, awesome car. the main things that your ok tho!

cheers guys, yeah did see u with the jetta yesterday mate. was miles away to be honest. just got pretty bad whiplash and some real bruised knees thats bout it really. the polo took a fair bashing to be honest.
next dub project here we come!!!

I see your polo parked out side duch wagen the otherday was going to ask if it was for sale.sorry to hear of your loss.

i got maximum repect for these polo's, my best m8 had one it was only a 1litre but it was such a good little car and just like a golf it takes so little effort to make a sweet ride.

RIP!

well, a nice straight mk2 polo mite be comin my way, so watch this space guys. wanted to get another jetta, but the charm of the baby dub has really bit me hard!!!

get on the phone to every bodyshop in a 50mile radius dude!! hes bound to turn up at one, catch the barsteward, it can be done . sorry to hear about the loss, i love those lil polos.

sorry for your loss dude. Im sure on here Henry had a shell that he was going to sell look at his build thread. It was in a grey colour too would look sweet if you brought it back to life. You can get mk3's for fairly cheap nowadays tho. I found a 1 litre for my girlfriend for £300.

its the polo curse lol me n bob are having a pants time with his polo too as im sure you have probly red.

Any way real shame to hear that.

If we didn't love our cars so much we'd find him and give him some of his own s**t back lol.


hope you can find another car in time.
