Won the auction yesterday on the above GTi alloys. They've got 215/40/17 tyres on so they should be fine....I hope :/

Will get some pics up soon on another thread

I hope these are ok :/

If I put them on, would you have to lower or??

Cheers, Mike

If I just put those on and then lowered by say 30-35mm, would you have any rubbing?

I'm looking at getting these off eBay http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/VW-genuine-17-ALLOY-wheels-BN-tyres-/200518878667?pt=UK_CarParts_Acc_Wheels_tyres_Rims_Car_Wheels_ET&hash=item2eafdb45cb#ht_1103wt_1138 First of all, would these fit on a 2005 9N and what sort of tire would be suitable, looking for some...

Hi there

I'm looking at installing a Parrot CK3100 in my 2005 9n. I'm pretty confident at the dash removal etc but wanted to get a quick rundown on linking it into the radio cassette. Also, do I need any additional leads etc?

Cheers in advance,
Mike

I managed to get something like 400miles out of my old 1.2, don't have a photo unfortunately

The time has come to put the well-loved Polo up for sale as I'm heading off to Swansea Uni in a few weeks and its not economical to take the car aswell! :( Here is the eBay link if you want to take a look! http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=350247743703&ssPageName=STRK:MESE...

I've had one or two occasions when stuck in heavy traffic when I've had the coolant light flash on the dash and beep and the temp head into the red. I've only had the fan come on once in the year I've owned the car so either the fan and/or fuse is gone, coolant level is fine so could it be a faulty ...

Here are a few picks with the alloys and german plates on. Also aded an iPod adpater as well.

Any improvements/recommendations are more than welcome!

It did cross my mind to head down to Marbella to visit the famous Jock Campbell of 'The Garage'. However, its over 1500 miles, its blumming expensive when you get their and I can't speak to lingo! Do like the idea of France as I have a day trip on Channel Tunnel - just trying to think where I can go...

Totally agree, can't stand them! Too intimidating I feel

Also, any ideas for a road trip alex?

I'm working for Orange @ the moment. You working for a network or P4U/CPW?

Bit of an update, been taking several trips from Cardiff - Newport and back and nothing has happened. Maybe a slight drop in miles per tank but I have ragged it quite a bit lately!

Ah weel, we'll wait and see

I think I'll get the alloys back on, then see about lowering. Want to get a few ICE bits as well like the iPod adapter if I can
