    This was my old car, I sold it to this seller I have imported two others of the same body style, this is the best condition one by far - I literally bought it from the widow of the original owner. He lived in a quintessential English down where the car was kept from new until he passed away.

    AFAIK, there's about 10-15 Polos in the USA, with 4-5 being of this body style. I'm sure there's more out there that aren't known to me.

    That car is a Polo 6n2 variant, a 1999 model. It was owned by the US military in Greenland. I have one of those too, as they brought four of them into the USA

    Depends on the shipping method and price of the car. The careful shipping is around $2,500 as a guideline.

    The car sold a while back. It's speedo is also in Miles not KM, as it's a UK car where they still use miles.

    Driving with the wheel on the other side is weird for people new to it - I find that people unconsciously use the center line to position themselves which throws things off. Once you learn to use the kerb it's totally natural. Pedals and gear shifting is normal. I learnt to drive on a RHD car and drove them for years in Europe so it's second nature for me, and after a week or two it's usually the same for US drivers.

    The Polo was sold ages ago (the new owner contacted me to chat about it).

    In this condition I estimate it to be worth about $5-7k.
