We sold our Polo VR6 in early 2003 after 3 years of trouble free fun motoring. The VR6 Polo was great, awesome noise and relentless power but we were still power crazed and wanted to do a car which would truly scare us! The VR6 power was good but we wanted something that would truly rip up the roads.
After numerous discussions we decided to continue our proven method of small car big power by choosing two of the best VW creations - the small well proportioned VW Lupo and one of VAG’s best engines the 1.8 20v Turbo.
The base car was a 2 owner 1.0 model with full electric pack finished in factory fantasia green sporting only 28000 miles on the clock. The car was duly stripped and the 12 month build began! |
