hiya, ive got a 1.6 cl and wondering are they rare and bhp they are. the reason i ask if they are is because i have never seen another 1.6cl. also the bhp, i was on the motorway yesterday and a corsa 1.4 16v sri which is 98bhp and he had exhasut on it wich would of made it up to 100. any way i beat ...

jus wondering if any body knows what the colour of my car is called because i need some paint to spray my bumper.

thnx

ive got a 1.6cl and thts torquey, when im stupid and rag it i can get it to spin in second.
also i can keep up with a 1.5 16v civic so not that bad to be honest. mines only standard aswell. so mods here n there will make a big difference.

heres the end result

im thinking of a rear strut brace now for better handling.

personally i think it looks better, also makes your car lighter and therefore a faster polo

its ok, ive doen it now. no more back seats for me i'll take a picture to show soon

right. i want to remove the backseats out of my polo, ive taken out the nuts that are holding it in but there are some braces holding it in place neer the doors. anybody got any ideas how to do this?
cheers

i was just wondering will this fit my car ...

just been to the scrap yard and asked about a 16v bumper, £95 for a primerd new bumper, is it worth this much? its the only place i can find with them.
thnx

yeh ive learnt my lesson, no more stupid drivin for me, the wheels are fine perfectly straight.

will 16v bumpers fit onto my 1.6cl? if so i'll do that. how much do you recon they are?

first of all me and my mates went for a ride round preston town centre, there was me in my polo, two 1.5 civic lsi's, 1.5 vtec civic, rover 216 and a fiesta zetec. first we went through the centre to look at all the ladies at night :P (french maids might i add lol)
then we went in a parkin lot n ...

when i did mine, what i did was use something called gum out to take off the sticky stuff. used to take off chewing gum etc
