Hi all, have the only 3 door 6R Polo in NZ for sale. It has been my wife's car for the last 4 years, but we need something bigger now. 2010 Volkswagen Polo Bluemotion TDi 70,000km 1200cc 3 cylinder diesel turbo 5 speed manual (with taller final drive) TCS, ESC, EBD, XDS Sport suspension package (a la GTi 15mm lower) Start/Stop Bluemotion Aero: - front lip, side skirts, diffuser - blanked grill - rear hatch Auto Climate Control Cruise Control MFD Fog Lights Steering wheel controls Lightweight alloys unique to the Bluemotion Completely Standard apart from a genuine VW towbar which is removable. Brought in by Giltrap VW new from Singapore. Full NZ VW service history either from Giltrap Prestige VW or Tristram European VW. We haven't skimped on anything mechanically, but there are some carpark scars which we haven't tidied up. - tyres and full alignment just done this year, Continental CC5's all round - Brake pads and rotors done with Genuine VW parts at Tristram last year - Tristram European installed alarm We'd like $11,000 ono. But offers are welcome ...We also have a NZ New 2011 Polo 1.4 7DSG if anyone is interested in that. Both cars located in North Shore, Auckland.

It's a mission getting the car out from the back of the garage. I'll pull it out next time it's sunny. Do you want any pictures in particular? Thank you. It's my old wagon.

Figure I'd see if anyone was interested in my wagon. It's been one of my favourites, stealthy family wagon with a bunch of torque. Always garaged, and I bought this off CamB, so the history is known. Unfortunately, I barely drive my car, have done about 1000km this year - so time to move it on 2005 Skoda Octavia vRS Combi, top of the line with all the options! 97,000km 1.8 Turbo 20v 5 speed manual REVO stage 2 - loads of features, boost, timing, map control Decat system 4bar fuel regulator All sorts of nice stuff in it, like: Half leather interior Height + Reach adjustable perforated leather steering wheel Height + Lumbar adjustable sport seats Aluminium sill protectors Boot net system Bag carry system Retractable boot luggage cover Animal/luggage partition for seats up and seats down 3-point centre belt ISOFIX Cupholders! (something I never had in my BMWs, ha) Cruise Control Climate Control Bluetooth Music + Calls Factory 8 speaker system Power + Heated Mirrors Full toolkit Aero Roof racks Economy has been 8L/100km around town, 5-6L/100km on the open road. Bad bits: - Scuffs on the front lip from my silly driveway - Minor staining on the centre part of the front seats, perhaps an old coffee spill? $10,000, all offers considered. Might consider a swap for an motard, streetfighter, or maybe a 2 stroke Aprilia. But I am hoping to get a KTM Duke 390 which is the primary motivator for this sale. Here's a cellphone pic from the last time I drove it (sorry it's filthy!). It is now clean, on standard wheels, normal plate, fresh WOF and live rego. Currently just lives at the back of my garage on a trickle charger.

I have some, but car's sold. First person to view bought straight away. I wonder if I should have priced it higher, at least it's gone to a very good home :-)

Cheers Graham, yeah it's mine. Have treated it as a keeper and it holds a whole bunch of sentimental value now - hence the extreme reluctance to sell. But there are unfortunately more important things to throw money at right now.

Listing conditions, defects, pictures, size, and price will help in selling them faster. Or at least the size, it would give members an idea of the rolling diameter/whether it would be a correct size for their car. If it's a popular rolling diameter then you might be in luck, if not, then a $1res auction on trademe or tyre shop might be your best bet.

IIRC, Chris bought it off me in 2010 I think. I swapped my E30 track hack for it with Sam in Christchurch - Sam rebuilt the 2.5 just before I took ownership. I think there was a 2.7 block lined up for it in Sam's ownership, but certainly was 2.5 when I had it. You really took care of it Chris! Saw it on the harbour bridge earlier this year, looked fantastic. Like Graham, I'm pretty sad I wasn't in a position to buy it back!

I haven't driven one, but this might be of use: (if only to watch something entertaining).

I used to run 20mm spacer, still have the studs and low profile nuts somewhere. Give me a PM if interested and I'll hunt them out for you this weekend.

^ Ah, bugger. Worth asking I suppose. Good luck with the sale

Just for the front pair of bilsteins? Or are the rear dampers included too? I'm guessing springs are for a 6cyl? Cheers.

Sweet have given you a text. Chur. lol, not sure there's any irony here. I don't mind what brand the head unit is, as long as it looks period (wanky, I know).

I'm trying to bring my iS back to a factory looking example, so if anything looks modified I don't want it in my car, gonna be a bit stricter on myself or it's going to be a slippery slope to another heavy modified e30! I'm going hunting for a small enough programmable one, otherwise I'll just remote mount an existing board in the dash somewhere. The plus side is the ability to have the antenna in a nice prominent place like going up the side of the windscreen so range is going to be awesome I hope! Oh sweet, you have my number I think. Give me a text, I'm just in Birkdale.

Yes! Exactly that is was thinking of for the oil temp, was going to use a mounted breadboard in the dash somewhere instead of a pcb though. Hi Brent, yeah I have a blank slot in my hvac control (no AC), might bung a defrost switch in there for the antenna switch and leave the ones closer to the driver for oil pressure warning and oil temp. I really don't like aftermarket looking head units in e30s (or bmw for that matter). Very happy with my oem one (see pic), it has aux in the glovebox, just don't like the look of the antenna, so will only use it when necessary

Hi all, was wondering if anyone has e30 hazard light buttons lying around for free/cheap? Kicking myself for giving away all the e30 bits I had a couple of years ago haha. Would like as many buttons as possible to cut up/break as I'm trying to see if I can: 1) incorporate my garage door remote into my dash. 2) fit a row of LEDs in another button housing as a oil temperature gauge and oil pressure gauge. 3) make an aerial switch, annoys me when it pops up even if I'm not using the radio. Also, if anyone knows of someone else already doing the above, please do share - I'd love to have to think less
