Finally saw another GTi
I bought my car mid December and was surprised that I hadn't seen another. On Wednesday I saw a white two door driving through Thundersley village in Benfleet, Essex. No chance to flash, wave or even grin.

Re: Finally saw another GTi
Yes, they do seem to be quite a rare sight on the roads.
Since I got mine in March, I've seen a black GTI on the Norfolk / Suffolk border a few times, a red one once in the local hospital car park and a fleeting glimpse of a white one, but apart from that, no others. Plenty of Fiesta ST's though.

The black 5 door on the norfolk/suffolk border i believe is this chap:

Gassed Up. he does quite a lot of his filming around the bury/thetford area and purchaced his car from VW in Bury St Edmunds.

The reg no. of the black one I've seen a few times was AU16 ###, so different to the guy on YouTube who I think is also a member on this forum? (forum name JoeMarano).MczZippy wrote:The black 5 door on the norfolk/suffolk border i believe is this chap:

Re: Finally saw another GTi
Yeah mine is AV16
I have only seen one the same as mine a black 5 door in my local area...they are a very rare sight indeed!
I think VW should give me more cars to put on film considering the amount of people that have bought Polo's due to me lol

If I see a red 5 door with a private plate when I'm driving in or around Norwich, I'll give you a wave!

Re: Finally saw another GTi
Hi,
The au16 black 3 door between Norfolk and Suffolk will be me. I drive from Norwich to halesworth daily for work.
I have only ever seen 3 other polos since March. black 5 door and a blue silk to and from work and a red one in Essex.

I've seen you a few times on the B1332 between 5.00 and 5.30 in the afternoon. I'll flash my lights when I see you next time; I'll be in my blue silk 5 door GTI; also AU16.Polo27 wrote:Hi,
