OV9

When my sister had her Golf Rallye, she use to take it to Dubsport, who did a lot of twin engined Golf's and Polo's. Not sure if this Corrado was theirs, but if you're going to go mad, go completely off the rails.

I'm glad someone is thinking of protocol.
Thanks JL, we’ll raise these standards somehow.

There's a long steep road ahead.

Good shout...

A mate's often thought about the R32 / R36 into a Bay Window Camper conversion...

I think I would rather have a watercooled 911 engine if I wanted to make a faster, more reliable camper.

Those DFI engines are gonna cost ya

Beat me to it!

Just make sure it's had a £11.5k Hartech rebuild before fitting it

Yeah, but - that looks like it was modified in a shed using cardboard.

Maybe he was going down the affordable route of a 996 turbo or GT3 motor built off the GT1 block

You’ll notice I said more reliable not just reliable. You don’t have to be very reliable to be better than an air cooled camper .

True. I guess a flat-6 would fit a little easier than a very narrow angle V6 too.

I want to know what's in the Polo.

I'd've been happy if the factory had gone ahead with this;




If you'd say it'd ruin the handling, maybe this would be better;





If you'd say that lacks class, then...;
