UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

What you looking to do? Performance or visual?

A couple of things you might want to consider:
- GTI bootlid spoiler
- GTI Xenon Headlights
- Coilovers/lowering kit

All of the above make a hugh difference to the visual appearance imo, check out my progress thread for photos

Hi Chris,

Welcome..

The car you linked looks pretty tidy, hard to guess what spacers he is running though as they are non-standard wheels

Both non-paying bidders/no shows :S

New wheels/tyres fitted, there was only going to be one choice for me: http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/shantybeater/Polo%20Tdi%20-%20Daily%20hack/RXII%20Wheels/WP_20140104_003_zpsd2c6b51c.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/shantybeater/Polo%20Tdi%20-%20Daily%20hack/RXII%20Wheels/WP_20...

Adjusted the ride height to around where I want and gave the car a good clean, its starting to get there now: http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/shantybeater/Polo%20Tdi%20-%20Daily%20hack/Suspension/WP_20131229_001_zps53cf29d4.jpg http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/shantybeater/Polo%20Tdi%20...

A pic now its settled, needs raising at the front a bit to look a bit less slammed and more OEM+:

Ok so a productive few days on the run up to xmas, suspension is now on: Front strut comparison with new mounts/bearings in place: http://i141.photobucket.com/albums/r65/shantybeater/Polo%20Tdi%20-%20Daily%20hack/Suspension/temporary_zps5536beb8.jpg Rear strut comparison with lower/upper mounts: htt...

Looking good, I think I posted a reply on this car over on clubpolo?

Check hydraulic fluid levels? Not quite sure how the system works on the polo but on my Porka a stiff clutch pedal often means a faulty Clutch master cylinder or slave

Good start, sorry to hear about the door mirror, keep an eye out on eBay as they go very cheap. White is nice colour on the 6n2, kept an eye out for one myself but they are pretty rare

FLC, Your right, the UP acceleration takes some 'planning' shall we say but on the move it flies along no problems. Its so quiet compared to the GTI and dare I say it but really comfortable as well as surprisingly good at handling :? I haven't filled it up to work out MPG, I haven't got the 'maps a...

Worth mentioning these differ from the normal 6n2 parts, they work o...

My latest xmas present for the polo has arrived:
