Thank you! It's awesome to know you guys care for my little car  

Ha so please it was  nothing major! 
And those little bolts are in tight now! Thanks to Tom air gunning them.
Only problem is the next person who has to get them out to refurb the wheels next time is gonna find it hard! 

Haha yeah, I'm one of those 'you need a lift? I'll give you a lift!'

Thank you  
Im So so so chuffed! I need to get a box of chocolates and beers for the VW chaps for being so amazing these last few months. I think my car would be long gone if it wasn't for them

I'm mega photo happy, so you wouldn't be able to get your car away without having a tone of photos taken by me! Haha

Thank you! So do I!!! Im praying the polo just leaves my bank account alone for a while and plays ball for once! Haha 



On a good note- my mate has finally stopped teasing me about the whole wheel thing, now he's realised it was the bolts that hold the wheel together, and not the nuts that hold the wheel to the car....tho he does still thro in the occasional cheeky comment. And I will of course being checking them monthly on my next set just to be safe


Trying to decide at the moment which wheels to put on the car.
Stick the new RXIIs on , or put the Lensos back on for it a bit. 
Currently heading more towards the lensos as I love the nice comments I always got for them from random people, and plus I think it'll make the new set of RX2s even more special when I put them on after having the lensos on for a bit. 

Can't wait for next month. Hopefully I'll be able to spend my wages on something fun for the car  

Cheers again guys for the comments all very much appriciated  

Verity your car looks Fab! apart from all the problems you have had, i know how you feel with not being able to drive your car as mine is currently off the road and has been since the 22nd of feb due to gearbox failing. Hoping to have her back on the road maybe this weekend ( cant wait!)
Your dog is soo cute too looks right at home in it.
Well look forward to keeping progress on your car keep smiling
Michaela x

Aww thank you! I hope to start getting some proper updates going soon. Some fun things...not just fixing him! Haha
...Tho my lamda sensor has gone cuput so I best sort that out soon as my mpg is shocking ATM.
Thank you, my dog is a right little scruff. Once my car gets detailed in a month or two hell go back to not being aloud in lol

I hope you get your car bak on the road soon!

Aww bless him! My gearbox is currently being rebuilt should have been finished today but my dad has gone away till thursday and we cant get up to get it back although its only 20miles away. Cannot wait to drive her again.
Iv got a few things id like to do with my car should be able to now as have moved back in with my rents so funds should be a bit better ( I Hope! ) x

Living with the parents deffinatly has its benifits!
I cant wait to have my own little house.... unfortunatly with the money I earn thats not happening any time soon... Plus i refuse to rent! paying someone elses morgage off each month just doesnt seem right - so im gonna have to find a fat deposit from somewhere and get a decent enough job that i can get a morage.
....but for now, im happy at home with my family. only having to worry about credit card bills and phone bills, and insurance.... urgh

A few quick photos from this morning. was stood on the back door step with a cup of tea admiring the polo, so thought id grab the camera











And a quick and crappy photo of my little airfreshners. been wanting to try them for a few weeks as I love the pots but find they get in the way.
TBF they are actually pretty good. nice and stinky, but not over powering. Ive only used two from the pack, so when they have died ill put the other two out

The Polo is looking good Verity

Living at home FTW! I'm in the same boat as you at the moment but I would consider renting if I found a nice place (despite it being dead money)
Most people our age group can't afford a mortgage though, it’s all about getting that lump sum payment sorted but it’s tough to save that kind of cash these days.

I'm banking on a Lottery Win optimism is always a good thing lol

Polo is looking good dude. I am moving back home soon from Uni and I can't wait because my car will stop getting bashed out in the street

nice pics
