Hey guys, thought I'd register on here, having heard such good things from mr. Si_GTi of CP and here

so......hello this be my mk5 1.4 TDI PD (first two from the midlands CP meet trip to Decked Dubs in October)

Last two from Christain the crazy german from CP at this year's Polo Show

Mods to come include 40mm lowering kit (springs and dampers, can't be asked with coilovers, too much feckin about) BMC (if they make one for my engine, otherwise K&N) and a cat-back exhast system

Comments etc. all welcome!

Looks cool, not to my taste though.

If your goin for the dark look maybe black VW badges front and rear and maybe the gti honeycombe front grill. Perhaps even black angel eyes.

I like it, looks stealthy

Black badges and some lowerage would make it spot on. I love the black ATS Cups, they look awesome.

I bet you're enjoying that torque and the MPG from the diesel lump

hello jon, welcome aboard mate! thought i'd introduce myself as i've got the same engine and i know exactly how u feel, just love my turbo diesel! i agree with the others, the stealth look will look the business on ur car... just slam it, black badges and maybe tints? i've pretty much gone as far as i want to in terms of the look of my car, im looking to engine mods now.. i've got a sebring exhaust (back box with straight through pipe) and K&N induction kit on at the mo, don't think there's a BMC for it... havent had it dyno'd yet but i've been recommended to superchip it as it does wonders with turbo diesels! thought i'd pass on my suggestions to you, hope it helps!

I want a diesel

Â£40 a week for me sometimes on petrol and that now only gets me 300 miles due to my lovey BMC induction kit

Welcome to UK-P!!

are u sure that the figure u quoted for tax is not 6 months coz that would make more sense??
i pay Â£110 a year and that the same as a 1.0l polo!! (i'm not complaining as my car is around polo gti speeds)
