The Polo II is a Automobile of the German mark Volkswagen.

Called " the fourmi" by the publicity campaign of VW, Sports shirt II is compact with whole share by the two types of body which she proposes. The version known as coach by far will be sold while the cut version will remain in withdrawal of share its high price. A third body will be marketed, under the name of Polo classic or derby for the first models, which profits from a volume three bodies letting appear a large trunk with the back. Small the Sports shirt will be entitled to a face lift redynamisant the line of the Eighties to face its 4 last years of production with a more current design and an interior much more with the image of the recognized completion with Volkswagen. If the motorizations appreciably keep the power of mechanics of beginning of the year 80, they are not modernized by adopting an electronic system of gasoline injection instead of the carburettors.

The Sports shirt is equipped with a four-cylinder motor on line laid out transversely with the front one. Its cylinder head is out of light alloy and contains a crankshaft 5 stages. The valves are ordered by camshaft at the head pulled by notched belt. Cooling is ensured by water completed overpressure with pump, radiator, surge tank and electric fan ordered by thermal switch. Lubrication is also assured in closed circuit thanks to a pump suspended in the sump and interchangeable filter.

The G40 Sports shirt: a version with whole share

The G40 Sports shirt resembles the Sports shirt, it has of it the look, the completion and even the odor! But that is not a Sports shirt like the others. Manufactured in preproduction in version Cup Sports shirt, it inaugurates a complex system of overfeeding to implement on an industrial scale: the Compressing G which owes its name with the shape of the whorls which composes it to create overpressure. The Cup Sports shirt develops such a couple (for the time) which it can cut down the 0 to 100 km/h in less than 9 seconds. Its secrecy, it is its lightness, 800 kg. The power unit is composed of one 4 cylinders of 1.3L and a 5-speed gearbox geared down well. 115 horses available immediately, in a very linear way, here what to manufacture in crowned series one bends. And it is of course what Volkswagen will do since 1988. A series of 500 specimens, all blacks, will be intended for France, 1000 others will be reserved for the German market.

Why G40 is not a Sports shirt like the others:

the G40 Sports shirt, in its first version of series, includes the features of the Cup Sports shirt exactly. Namely the 4 cylinders in transverse position supplied with a multipoint electronic injection ordered by a calculator " Digifant". A petrol station immersed in the gasoline tank conveys fuel with an accumulator under pressure. This temporary reserve is exploited at once by the pump of cramming which pushes the gasoline to the injectors of the slope engine.

the frame is specific to the model although derived very largely from the frame of origin. If the Sports shirt has a monocoque structure, one should not trust with appearances. All the frame part was reinforced to make it possible to box the surplus of power. The front skirt is completely modified to allow the passage of the air-to-air exchanger and the Durit S of air. The front cross-piece under the cap was cut out in three parts bolted to allow an easy intervention in the event of failure of the compressor.

the travelling trains are also prepared: lowered suspension, reinforced, pneumatic struts cuts low, thicker cross-pieces, bars torsion tared more extremely, triangles of suspensions entirely kneecaps. The brakes are obviously re-examined by the adoption of discs ventilated with before with more powerful clamps. The back drum brakes always however received cylinders of largeer diameter. The brake system borrows a compensator for a better distribution between the nose gear and the rear axle.

the interior is partially arranged, in a rather discrete way, by offering seats semi bacquets composed of fabrics specific to this model, a wheel sport with three branches, an account turns and a digital clock. Only the red liseret framing the meter gives a key of sportivity in the cockpit. In the trunk a specific groundsheet fitted carpet leaves right what it is necessary of place to let pass the thicker spare wheel.

the driving block, if there remains rather familiar, is not in remainder of modifications. Distribution, the mask tumbler, pistons, the Camshaft, valves, all accessories driving (radiator, starter, alternator, pipes of admission and exhaust…) are specific. The line of exhaust is also much more imposing. The transmission is ensured by clutch (of specific diameter) single-plate dry ordered by cable. The Gear box perfectly adapted to the possibilities of the driving and so specific block to this model relays via a differential integrated the power into the nose gear wheels by specific Cardan joints them-also.

Outside, the badges can mislead the discretion of the model. One with before on the grill, the other behind on the Forage ladder, they are quite alone to recall that we deal with WP except standard. A more thorough attention will make it possible to notice the presence of a front spoiler, light alloy rims, hub caps of handles black and nonchrome, a jump-wind clipsé on the conducting windshield wiper and of a muffler painted in dark gray at the exit of smoke. The German versions will be entitled to a badge WP, a surlignée grill of red, with the image of the bumpers and edge lines of protection.

Finally and the sharpest attraction: the specific system of overfeeding to this model, ever taken again in series by a concurrent mark, comprises a compressor pulled by twinned belts taking their movement by the pulley damper of the crankshaft. This compressor consists of two casings imprisoning a spiral which operates by an eccentric movement a forced aspiration of the air to restore the maximum pressure of 0,7 bar to the engine. The air is absorbed through a filter cartridge then restored and refreshed by the air-to-air exchanger under pressure with the admission, which has a mechanism of by-pass, controlling the pressure available permanently.
