Turned 17 just over a month ago, and after a long hard search i found what i wanted :D

A 3dr 1.2 65hp Polo MK6, in Black!

Ive got a few things to sort out before i get her on the road, insurance and all that boring %^!

And also ive got to replace the wing mirror which im looking for a how-to guide as i cant drive it til its done unfortunately.

Pics will be added soon!

Thanks

Mirrors aren't too tricky... Is it just the glass, or complete unit that you need to change?

You can do a lot worse than buying a Haynes manual. (often get them cheap on Amazon) which'll walk you through a lot of repairs and servicing... Save you a fortune in the long run!

nice mate welcome first of all.

Haynes manual is a good shout.
I had the same problem with the wing mirrors, If its the glass ur gonna need some adhesive, though if its whole unit that needs replacing then you are gonna have to take the door card off. not too bad just tedious lots of poppers and a couple star head screws.

you could even get the 9n3 mirrors splice your side repeater wires and connect the indicators on the wing mirrors ;]
