Damn cheap to mod (dual angel eyes for £80, LED tailights for £110, 13/14" alloys (£80 each))
Go with the POLO I guess the sixth owner is the garage right?
VWs go forever so dont worry about owners, go for F/S/H.
Whats the prics? I'll imagine about £1100 as my 1.2 corsa was £1050.
Hope that helps

Christ! My 1900 Diesel just cost me £1900, and that one is older with more miles and 3 times the amount of owners!
Get the price down to £1500 or walk away, theres some good uns on ebay.

Yup. Somewhere along the same lines a corsa sport for insurance and power. I think they have 65 BHP too.
