Hi all,

I am a newbie from Hong Kong (but used to live in Plymouth, Devon in the past!) and nice to meet you! I am really pleased to be a polo owner and recently bought one!

Attached few shots here to share :D

Nice car and nicely caught photo's.

Looks like quite a good spec too with the sun roof,auto dimming mirror and rain sensor.

Grand Job

Hello! Nice to meet you! :D

I have seen your posted photos and few shots I can actually see my house at the background (at Stangray Avance).

Does yours have manual AC - I can just about see an AC pipe in the engine bay, so assume its manual as opposed to automatic?

Alex, yes it has the manual A/C, do you know if I could change to the automatic one?

I think youd need a whole new HVAC unit behind the dash, then the wiring loom and panel to go with it

Its not an easy swap sadly

Didn't realise you were in Hong Kong at first, then as I started looking trough the photos (before I got to the obvious ones in the streets with Chinese writing!), I thought that doesn't look like UK! Do you see many of the GTI's out there?

Welcome to Hong Kong in the past and any plan to come around again? :D

Here is not many on the road. In fact it has been only imported quite few of 6N2 GTI to Hong Kong compare to the Golf GTI.

The 6N2 version has only been introduced GTI version and then there is couple of 9N 1.8T Polo GTI as far as I know. People here likes Golf more than Polo.

Until the latest version of Polo released (5N?), Polo is getting popular and I always see them on the road!
