Nice to see another 5 door around, nice looking Polo

Had a set of greenstuff pads on my gti & they did nothing but squeal, popped some pagid pads in & no squeal what so ever ...... The greenstuff pads need a bit of heat in them to not squeal & they produce so much dust.

I know it's not listed, but I'd be interested in the A pillar trims if available .

Well having finally pieced together the rest of the audio for the GTi it was about time to fit it, Interior mostly out https://farm6.staticflickr.com/5091/14053353083_bc0f04df48_z.jpg Front components form Ground Zero, 10 Gauge wire does not want to fit through the door plug :x https://farm8.staticf...

It would be the whole top mount assembly, adjustable top mount they look pretty trick & need setting up properly.
Would it not be cheaper to replace the strut as it sounds like yours is damaged ......

Very nice, love that quilt stitched leather & the carbon (effect ?) rear lights are a nice touch .....

Just a small update, managed to get hold of another GTi steering wheel with red stitching and after giving it a good clean (stitching was filthy) and leather treatment it came up pretty well & looks great fitted.

Thats a nice looking 5 door you have there .....

I keep meaning to paint the rear calipers but some how keep forgetting :roll: Will be getting some 40 profile tires when these need replacing as their 205/45/16 at the mo, I think my next few jobs will be making a sub box & amp rack, sorting out the peeling grab handles, quite fancy some charcoa...

On a motorway run it can manage about 40-44mpg, if I drive it like a nun around town then it's bearable at around 28-32mpg but if I drive it like I stole it the fuel gauge goes down quicker than a Thai hooker. The V-power nitro fuel does make it feel a lot more responsive & seems to get better m...

Well after a few ups & downs I finally managed to get the wheels refurbed, tires back on & fitted to the car. They took a serious amount of work to get up to scratch, I looked like a coal miner after a hard down pit after using the polishing wheel :shock: & my fingers are still devoid of...

Well time to start refurbing the wheels, this is going to be fun .... http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8399/8710580671_1f01d72116_c.jpg http://farm9.staticflickr.com/8134/8711707240_b12d4696ea_c.jpg looks like the person who had them before hand (brush) painted them in hammerite :shock: , still I have ...

Hi all, been lurking on here for a while now & thought it was about time I showed my GTI. It's a 2001 5 door with 132000 miles on the clock, full service history & picked her up in October 2012. Since owning her I've replaced the gearbox with a fully rebuilt unit, given her a full service &a...

£250 is a bit steep fella, considering I'm looking to refurb them & there's a set of 16" RxII for £300 with virtually brand new tyres ....

How much for the wheels ?
