*** previous ride ***

My second car, a VW Polo G40 Genesis edition. A bit faster than the previous polo. with 115 BHP and just 850 kilo's (1870 lbs) this is a real pocket rocket thanks to Volkswagens G-Lader on the 1.3i engine. In Holland we only got the G40 as the lovely dark purple Genesis Edition.

I swapped the stock 13" BBS spoke rims for the 5 spokes from my previous car and also reinstalled the itty bitty victor steering wheel & shiftknob. My friends brother made me a one-off aluminum double 90mm muffler, deep sound when it was warm and very silent when it was cold, not to wake up the neighbours :)

feel free to check out my current rides:
- The Lil' Coupe: 1994 Honda Civic Coupe 1.6 VTEC
- Grandpa's Car: 1976 Audi 80 GLS
