HIGH MILAGE HOT HATCH HERO - 6N2 Polo GTI Review **FUTURE INVESTMENT?**

[@zaink7037]

I think this shape polo looks better than the next shape up with the double style headlights

[@tombroad1467]

Love this video, just found one with 58,000 miles and managed to buy for £3,100. Had for 2 weeks and had a smile on my face the whole time. Cheers for covering the mighty 6n2 GTI!

[@testtest3593]

I have one now, paid £3250, silver, 5 doors, all original, 60k on clock. It needed alloys doing and bonnet and wings resprayed which I've had done. Looks spot on and drives really well. I had a few bits done with the engine, mainly replacing anything that would affect performance and timing belt. I really enjoy it and I get quite a few positive comments.

[@MonstaaBoii]

A hope it came with air suspension for 3 grand lol, ye can pick these up for half that price bro

[@roughanbass806]

i bought a brand new one in 2001 .. really enjoyed it

[@RooRichy]

I was 21 12 years ago with a cupra r and I always liked the 6n2 GTis, especially brave owners with the 1.8t engines. Good to see some appreciation for this little and great looking car.

[@I_am_Jesus_though]

Why brave, they prone to brake?

[@RooRichy]

225-300bhp with a k04 is a lot for a polo. Rainy days would need a light foot.

[@philipstarmans8100]

Bought one a year ago. One owner, full vw-dealer service history. Paid 4000 euro for it and i enjoy it a lot!!

[@04cscholes]

Had one in flash red, not bad motor. Gearboxes are weak, 1.8t conversion is the right thing 🔥

[@alduncan3807]

Cheers Jamie. Nice to see a car like mine being reviewed. The last time I checked about 230 Gti's on the road.

[@mimirconsulting]

damn, I didn't know I belonged to such a small club. We need to make our own member cards 😂

[@MendItModIt]

Love these cars! I've owned 2 at completely different ends of the spectrum and plan to get another one day. Still have a set of the factory BBS split rims sitting in my shed. Such a good spec for the year, xenon lights, electric windows and sunroof, 6 CD changer in the boot, climate control, the lot!

[@alduncan3807]

Are your wheels in good condition? The wheels on my car are very sad indeed.

[@pianoboogie51]

I have the TDI 1.4 version its a good motor, would recommend

[@agentcarbunkle]

I have a the 1.4tdi 6n2 £30 a yr tax model had it 10yrs, been great saved loads and still very nippy with the turbo / diesel torque, done 160k now, its fun drives like a go cart also now after no claims its only £25 a month insurance

[@charlottesimpson723]

I brought mine in February this year for £1200 with 91k on the clock, again has had and still needs loads of work. Love it though! ❤️ I’ve already put so much money into this car already but have big plans.

[@roningelert]

Great video 👍 I have one 27k 1 owner garage parked all its life looks feels and drives like it just came of the production line and 23 yrs old completely original in every way

[@Steyreon]

I have the 6N1 GTI...very fun to drive...intense in a way, very quick around corners...and yes, you have to wanting this, it is special :)

[@b4rings942]

Ive got two 6n2 gti polos both 3 door a red one and black one. Love them

[@Carlibers]

man my first car was a clapped out white 6n2. "betty" old and knackered but kept going... Never really let me down either except a fuel pump and relay

[@tthrop]

Love my 6n2 gti ! It’s a grate back road toy

[@Mouse2113]

My first car, silver with leather, Y286 DLS, loved it

[@johnnysandford6n2]

Just watched you vid and totally agree. I’m 42 and I’ve owned mine (black) for 14 years and is on 173k! Had quite a few gearboxes and it’s on its 2nd engine but I cant bear to part with it. Anyone who has owned one will tell you the gearboxes are shocking but plenty of spares out there if you know where to look.

[@georgelock9646]

Lovely car! My 1.4 Petrol 9n has 238,000miles and doesn’t miss a beat! Solid cars

[@spookyboi9693]

this is my first car and aboustley love it, zipping down b roads insurance is good too 870 a year with sterling

[@pilky980]

Finally seeing my car on your channel!!! (Not literally mine, I do own a 58k miles 6n2 GTi though)

[@pilky980]

Also just a follow up a year of tax is £280 it's £154 for 6

[@markturner-smith5309]

Me too a Feb 2001 (so one of the very last) 6n2 GTI owner 116miles in the clock still going strong. Yes it needs much cosmetic cleaning up/restoration but love it (mine has Koni ST-R dampers and Eibech Pro-line springs all round. Yes it often has the odd wobbly but still a laugh.

[@jubjub.]

I have a 106 and imo the polo has a nicer interior

[@esc5060]

i've just swapped my lupo 1.4 16v for a 6n2 gti, getting it motd this week

[@titof1984]

to this day I still miss my base model 6n2 I owned until 2015....

[@2sik_UK]

My first car was a base model, I will forever love the 6n2, in a a3 1.8t quattro 180hp so would literally be like a 3rd of the power going back too a polo though lol

[@titof1984]

@@2sik_UK currently in a 1.4 corsa, all my cars since the polo have around the 90hp mark because while UK people get f*d on insurance fees, belgians get f*d on registration fees. the bigger the engine the more tax you pay... luckily my chevy is over 50yrs old and gets a flat rate of 37euros tax yearly :D

[@2sik_UK]

@@titof1984 damn mate, they're always after us petrol heads. Tbh tax isn't cheap here either, my 1.8t a3 I pay about 400 euros a year tax, we get taxed on emissions, then £1380 a year insurance (1616€) man, I hate tax and insurance prices.

[@titof1984]

@@2sik_UK as long as you don't go over 2.0L engine you pay about the same as you in yearly tax, but the insurance, whoah, I pay half of that for full coverage.

[@2sik_UK]

@@titof1984 its a joke mate, I'm not a rich guy or well off really I make 8.95 an hour and 40 hours a week, my insurance cost is about 10% of my yearly wage! I don't have any years no claims so it will go down next year and again but its too much, I only paid £750 for my car 🤣

[@yaronhutten74]

I've got this exact car also a 3 door in black and it has run 336.000km at the moment (208.000 miles) still a fun car

[@Adrian1906ABG]

Every time when i have enough of my cupra 1.8t and want to get rid of it i see your intro and i want to modify it more :D

[@AntivistGaming]

i drive one of these but not gti, 1.4 tdi but it feels kinda fast

[@levyqr4036]

I have one I’m trying to buy the spoiler where ca I get it ?

[@mohamedelsawy5350]

What are the sizes of rims and tires, please?

[@davidvieira2675]

I want to know too

[@chreyzor]

My beat up 2012 fiesta has over 160k miles on the clock. 170k for a W plate is winning 😂

[@tylerwalton7276]

I just brought a 6n2 polo about a month ago for 700 pound full service history and only done 70000 miles and in very good condition they are out there just very hard to find

[@lessanlarry5618]

Just bought a 6n2 polo 2001 with 90k km one month ago such a gem.

[@Aehzur]

Looks very similar to the interior of the seat arosa I had, maybe they are shared?

[@MADBOY5176]

Yeah are mate it’s apart of the vag group Volkswagen audi Skoda and seat etc all shared 👌

[@CooperTrooper27]

Bought one about a year ago for 1k at 19 for my first "sporty" car and I did enjoy it but I bought it from Birmingham so that kinda says the condition it was in, it was slammed and straight piped but drove pretty terribly. The engine is great and I liked the interior but many things didn't work and when it came to the mot it failed pretty badly and sold it for £500 about 6 months ago. In my opinion if you have one i would hold on to it because I kinda wish I did but with the way the prices are going I wouldn't buy one as there's a lot more car you can get for the money, such as a mk4 golf gti like I've just bought for less than my 6n2. Overall good car if you can find a clean one for cheap, quite fun to drive and look great but prices are getting ridiculous now to justify

[@CooperTrooper27]

Also it was on 120k which is a bit

[@r3h4n786]

Yea i bought a 1999 Toyota Chaser couple months ago from b'ham drove it to London and 3 days later it got nicked. Was told to avoid buying cars in b'ham at all costs.

[@CooperTrooper27]

@@r3h4n786 I don't think that has anything to do with it being from Birmingham...

[@steveb19111978]

Very underrated IMO.

[@TD5_CAM]

I am a fellow owner of a 6n2 but unfortunately not the GTi version,i have a 1.4MPI 8v on 82k miles

[@ianat5016]

Omg your giving the car credit where it’s dew.had my from new.it’s totally standard. 👍👍

[@rollin-rebuilds-uk7065]

Long live the Vdubs

[@mrmcgraw3706]

There is a lot a switch gear from a lupo/lupo GTI

[@Mouse2113]

Polo has a proper dashboard and much nicer door cards

[@1992tpc]

High mileage thats funny my vw caravelle has over 415k on the clock

[@rollin-rebuilds-uk7065]

Just run in lol

[@jackfisher9990]

Is your vw caravelle a diesel? Just out of curiosity... As this 6n2 is a petrol, high mileage for a 1.6 n/a petrol that's been ragged by every owner I'd say.

[@1992tpc]

Yh 2.5 tdi

[@jackfisher9990]

@@1992tpc I'd say that's a decent mileage for a diesel, probably still got another 150,000 in her yet then. 👌I was just highlighting that this little 1.6 naturally aspirated polo does have quite high mileage for a n/a petrol is all dude. 👍

[@mihaiadrianionutungureanu2465]

Had a 6n 1.3 that I've put a turbo on, sold it in January and miss that car every day

[@Spaske1990]

What seats are that?

[@maxdav3058]

I bought one for £1,400 with only 28k miles on it

[@feebsii7009]

saw this pop up.........also in a 6n2.........with bbs ......and of course it leaks oil and has mil lamp...its a REAL vw xD

[@seanh5648]

All I remember people kept saying they ate gearboxes. Not a clue if that’s true

[@Mouse2113]

They did, weak bearings and a gearbox not designed to take 125bhp

[@Andrew_DC5]

Loved mine when it wasn’t breaking every 5 minutes 🤣

[@skyblues8785]

I love your intro

There’s a black one in Caithness Scotland 👌🔥
