UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Sweet! Black cars sure look nice in the summer sun Btw, I wouldn't mind having some of that weather...

Great pictures, looks mean in black.

I said to myself I would never own a black car again because of the dirt. But dam that black on the POLO GTi looks awesome. Congrats bud

Yay another black GTI! Does look great

I do love the colour but my god is it hard to maintain

Looks gr8, so does scenery

Looks awesome! Can't wait till I get hold of mine
The Pearl Black is great but definatley agree it gets filthy very quickly, keep on top of it and it will always look great

Thanks guys! Couldn't be happier with the purchase.

Any tips on what to get to clean it? Types of sponges and detergents? Any good guide online?

thanks!

Detailing world m8, good forum with lots of knowledgeable people

I know you were on a test drive, but anyway, what are the first impressions of the car.

Super easy to drive and live with in the city.
Sound and media system is awesome.
People actually fit in the back comfortably.
Sounds mean and goes like stink in any gear.
The cooling system's got it's work cut out. The engine warms up fast!

Absolutely no complaints what so ever. I even found out it has a CD player, didnt even know.
Only issue is the petrol expenses. Getting around 9-10liters/100km in and around the city.

Thank you very much. I see that the suspension is not too hard to drive in the city?

here's a question.

what has everyone got on displayed on the MFD?

i've got oil temp on mine

Mine doesn't have the Sport package so only old-school dampers and coils. It handles bumps very good but it's firm.

Thank you. Your posts solved my dilemma of whether to take a sport package - I will not take it (of course, if I decide to buy a Polo Gti). Sorry for my English. I use Google translate .

As I said before, I'm not a huge fan of sports buttons, nor of artificial engine sound. My sport button is above 4000RPM
I haven't regretted my decision (yet at least) I'm loving this suspension, it's kinda like the 208 GTI. Firm and minimal body roll while still beeing comfortable.
