How is the ride quality on the Eibach?
Do you have pictures?

I think the ride is so much better now. You notice it more at speed as the car feels more stable.
Looks wise, now looks like it should. I think there’s a few pictures on here but will post some later.
Looks great, should have been like that from the factory!

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?
There was one parked outside my house last night ,- hideous front end. Doesn't look too bad from above, but face on you can see how sloped and pointy the front end is.

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?
It just looks really squinty at the front end with those very narrow headlights. The interior has cheapened a little - there's certainly no gap between Polo and Golf any more in terms of interior plushness.

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?
My opinion was similar at launch of the AW Polo in 2017 but now that there are 1000's on the road it's "grown" on me over time. As for Golf 8 I also don't have much to say about the "looks" at this time but who knows in 2 - 3 years my opinion may change.
Notwithstanding the above the VW Electic range (ID) looks even worse imho.

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?
I've always liked the Polo AW, Immediately disliked the Golf MK8, probably because it's so ugly vs the MK7.5.OomStu_ZA wrote: ↑Thu Jul 09, 2020 3:42 pm My opinion was similar at launch of the AW Polo in 2017 but now that there are 1000's on the road it's "grown" on me over time.

I have a similar dislike for the MK6 Golf. Compared to the MK5, that seemed to.have has a "Toyota" makeover. Looked much less ageessive than the MK5 performance models. Luckily for me, the Scirocco came out and was much preferred over the MK6 by me.
Most people welcomed the new shape BMW one series because the last gen is so ugly, and the new one is a huge improvement to most.
Re: What did you and your Polo do today?
Car was in today to finally add a few things:
- Front Splitter
- Rear Diffuser
- 4D Plates
Had these parts for months but haven't been able to put them on because of lockdown!
Has made a huge difference to the car. Will post some more photos tomorrow after its had a wash.

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?
Looking forward to those photos!
I've had 4d plates for a few months now. They look really good on the car.

Nice Matt, agree they definitely stand out! Was tempted by the 3D Gel ones as well, both look good!
Bit of a delay in cleaning the car... will post some photos on Sunday.

Re: What did you and your Polo do today?
Gave my GTI it's first wash and detail, spent 4 hours on it in total. Some might say it's pointless but I enjoy it
