Hello all, here is a few pics of my new Polo Blue GT. Should be picking her up next weekend. Cant wait!

Enjoy! Satisfying to see the 'sold' sign.

Thanks, will be even better to drive her. Managed to negotiate the chrome tail pipes in with the deal, so they are getting fitted this week.

Great car, enjoy!

Nice pics.. Making me want May to hurry even more haha

Picked her up at lunch time today, thought Id post some pics. Loving it so far.

Looks stunning

Very nice, i bet your happy

Superb car, I'm sure you will love it. I still can't quite get my head around the current trend for anthracite wheels, though. My silver ones looked just like those this morning, until I spent 5 minutes cleaning the brake dust off.

Ha ha, yeah the wheels do look brake dust colour, that was part of the appeal for me

Its going in to the garage next week for the exhaust trims to get fitted.

Im thinking of getting some door sill protectors next along with some sports peddles can anyone recommend any pedals?. I would have thought the sill protectors would have come as standard.

Sill protectors: I made my own and (IMHO ), they're more effective - and a LOT cheaper - than VW's

Exhaust trims are a must on the BGT, but you don't need to get the dealer to do them. They are push-on and take literally 5 seconds each

Your wheels aren't all that darker than mine really. They're not offered here in France anyway, so I didn't have the choice.

Thanks TheFrog , I will look in to the sill protector idea. Did you also fit your sporty pedals yourself?

Nah, I don't like so-called sports pedals. They're invariably less grippy than the originals and rarely look very nice.

My exhaust trim arrived... this is how the dealer fitted them


This is after a bit of adjustment when I got home..



I also picked up these, going to do a bit of customisation and then fit them when the weathers better.


Next I think I will take the Polo badge off.

It's funny that not even the dealer can figure out that you have to use a hammer to install the exhaust trims.
