Re: Does your 1.2 TSi do this?

Yes, mine does this. Annoys the hell out of me because it sounds so rough and lumpy for the first few seconds. Something to do with keeping emissions down I believe. Still don't like it though.

Re: New Polo DRL's ?

Strangely, someone leapt out of their car in front of me at a junction last weekend to tell me that I had my lights on. When I told him that they were supposed to be on, he looked at me like I was mad. He obviously hadn't heard of 2008/89/EC either!

Re: Air con function?

My aircon light comes on (along with the aircon!) if I turn the dial to windscreen ie 12 o'clock position, just like yours does. Also did the same in my old Focus so thought this was pretty standard for demisting windscreen. Recirculation light doesn't come on automatically when I turn aircon on wit...

Re: 1.2 TSI SEL w/Pics

Cute! (Polo, not the pink furry dice...). Aren't you finding the arm rest gets in the way of the handbrake and gearstick? I just keep mine in the up position all the time, and think it's a serious design flaw by VW. Nice one on the numberplate - we only had the choice of two, neither of which were t...

Re: Silver GTI 6R

I've yet to see a 6r Polo GTI on the road, but I am noticing a few more "regular" 6r Polos around and about. I was very pleased to be at the tail end of a 6r Polo 'convoy' for a couple of miles on my way to work the other week - black Polo, white Polo, then me (grey Polo). It brings such a...

Re: She's Here.........at last!!!

Niiiice! I really love the new Polo in red, but couldn't persuade Himself to go for it. Actually, I really like the Nimbus Grey too, so it's good that we went with that isn't it!

£65 for 45 litres of fuel is £1.45 per litre. Where the heck are you buying your petrol from??!
