Little girls are made of sugar and spice.

Little boy are made of slugs and snails.

But what is an 8v GTI Cupra Sport made of?

I have a rough picture. Golf GTI Mk3 engine AGG, Polo Mk?? floorpan?, Golf GTI Mk2 & 3 suspension front & rear mix?

Can you clarify this?

I am just curious but some sort of sticky listing theparts which are interchangeable between various golfs and polos etc would be a help when sourcing parts.

Cheers.

Polo MK4 chassis with MK2 golf front end extention - which is why it houses the 2.0's and the polo didnt as standard
Golf MK3 front running gear, engines etc apart from the 1.0's
Polo MK4 back - hence the narrower track.
Polo MK4 dash
Polo MK4/Golf MK3 Seats
And a few little bits and bobs from all over the VW range

Add to it the gearbox and parts of the box (flanges) and shafts are Mk2 Golf or Corrado.... learnt after sourcing new flanges and seals when I fitted my diff.
