I miss my Polo!

On my way over to Doncaster yesterday i was admiring a slammed silver MK5 with some subtle little touches! Made me really want my old GTi back! But like Chris and James, the worry of the gearbox and limited power output makes me snap back to reality!!!

Am constantly trying to persuade my girlfriend to get a Polo when she passes her test, but she insists she wants a clio!

so i bought another gti....but decided to rectify those problems

That's why I never intend to sell any car locally .. I just don't want to see it about after incase it looks a bit rough.

Ha ha still have mine. It's kinda stupid, I want to make mine a little faster and know I could be like most people out there and buy a faster car, but I ain't most people. I totally respect the Mk5 GTI for what it is, but a little more power would make it even more special

Did the gearbox actually break, or did you get it done as a precaution??
