I saw this car when i went to attend a symposium in SRM college in chennai. The guy didnt give proper information about the car. But he told that it has the vento diesel engine, all kind of weight reduction were done.

And i didnt have enough time to take more snaps of this beast.[cry]

Here goes the 2 pictures i took in a hurry [clap]

100th post[clap]

Yeah buddy, we could have met, i almost forgot that you are studying in SRM. And that car revved like a beast. it was audible for almost half of your insanely huge campus. And this car had nitrous set up too.

Thats not a Rally car but a race car probably the Polo Cup Racer. And another thing, They VW doesnt use diesel engines on Polo Cup cars I believe.

Re: Spotted: Rally Volkswagen Polo in Chennai

nope it is the 1.6 diesel mill from the vento!
Nope. not the diesel mill from Vento. It is further tuned for performance and gives 130 ps ~ 127 bhp which is more than the 105 bhp in Vento.

Guys in chennai can follow the race in case they are interested in the coming weekend.

Here are the details - Volkswagen Polo Cup India

Dates - 19-21 Aug 2011
