Most GTIs have Climate Control, the earliest of GTis had A/C, as well as normally being satin silver rather then reflex silver, as well as a few other changes I think


Nice looking polo! Looks tidy. love the silvers
Look forward to seeing more photos and updates :)

Cheeky early gti, noice.!

Best place for parts like that is venom Motorsport they are excellent mate, give them a ring they will help you out.

I'd go for ap coilys at around £400 quid younger the best of both worlds.....

Yeah Venom Motorsport are really good, decent prices and quick delivery :)
You could push the boat out by spending an extra £100 and get Venom's "own brand" coilovers produced by SPAX :)
500 sheets but they are fully adjustable as in ride height and damping settings.
