Has any one fitted an intake yet? I'm thinking of going for the Revo but will it make much difference with out a map??

Thanks

I had an ST for 11 months and loved it. Always thought I missed it and then I got a shot of it again 2 weekends ago and was actually disappointed! Felt so slow, well compared to my APR'd GTI.

I took a test drive in a ST3 today and I loved it which I wasn't expecting. Handling was much better than my Polo and it felt just as fast. You do have to get out of first gear as that is definitely restricted but after that! Ford seemed to have sorted the suspension as it was more compliant than in the car I tested a year ago. Yes the interior is dated but the seats are very supportive. So it looks very much like I will be trading in my Polo after all.

I've had the Polo for 10 months. In a nutshell I will need to pay out around £1,500 in cash but the monthly payments will be about £30 cheaper.

So I jumped in the Mrs' polo tonight and everything was all good until I stopped at my parents for 5 mins then as I go to reverse out of there drive the screen stays black. The radio is still playing but the screen won't do anything, I've tried switching the car on and off but still nothing.

Has anyone else had an issue like this?
