I *think* they are available with a 1.4 3cyl diesel or a 1.9 4cyl.. These appear to be the 4cyl....   No clue how they got in the states either..   The same place has 2 Toyota Hilux Crew cab pickups too..   IN diesel as well...

1,7 or 1,9 SDI or 1,9 TDI. Those seems to be SDI.

I was curious about that myself..     I read through all their poop and even called..  I can at least get a title.... As far as registering, or insuring for that matter I'm not sure..    I gotta call my notary and insurance agent and see what they say...

Badged as a Polo, but made when VW took over "Seat" so it's actually a Seat.

I'd bet good money these are "parts only" vehicles, you'd never be able to legally register these in the US. Canada might be a different story, but as these were never imported here, it's gonna be a big hassle to put these on the road. You might even be required to cut it up before taking it home.

Unclaimed freight, drug bust, damged in shipment, who knows... pretty cool website, I've never looked there.

Good engine donors, though :) Looks like they're all diesels.

I wonder if the dashboard would fit into a MK1... These would be a really nice SDI conversion kit for an early Rabbit or Jetta

 My insurance agent actually helped me out checking up on this..  AS far as I understand after talking to her, the web site people and a notary, I can get a salvage certificate but not a title..  No way would it make it though as a reconstructed vehicle either..    But I do need a new engine in my Rabbit.....
