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

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.
