1994 Volkswagen Polo G40 Supercharged review from UK and Ireland
"RS Turbo eater!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Most of the bits that have been replaced are due to wear and tear. I have recently replaced the backbox. The charger has just been rebuilt for safe keepings.
Driveshafts are becoming noisy, tappets as well.
General comments?
When I first purchased the car I didn't realise how fast they actually were. A week after owning my car I had it chipped and pulley'd, bringing the power up to a respectable 25bhp over standard trim (113bhp).
I bought the car as a daily driver and look forward to driving it every day.
It's great, the only way of telling that it's supercharged is by the sticker on the front and back.. take these away and people think you have a CL model!
