Sure do mate.
Will need a shed load of development work to complete, but it's got to be worth the money for the engine, which I thought was from an S8 or an old A8
Anyway, the main problem, as I mentioned earlier, is that it is in a Polo, which, short of anything equivalent from the French or Italians, is the worst car in the world

yes, your gonna have to have a very very cleaver gear linkage to get that to work, we soenbt hours at work thinkin how we could get it to work, unfortuatley it was a waste as the guy sold it
Like various mid engined longitudionally mounted supercar engines, you could run the selector arm from a rose jointed mech at the box through the vee of the cylinder block.
