Re: polo 55 plate 1.4 tdi....yes or no ? should i buy?

it can be a bit noisy, but a sub-woofer can easily drown it out :P but its not that bad to be honest. sluggish - well it is a 1.4 after all, but for what it is i've beaten a few cars off the mark and and i haven't done anything to the standard 75bhp engine. you just have to let the engine warm up a ...

Re: polo 55 plate 1.4 tdi....yes or no ? should i buy?

well you can't go wrong with a diesel even with the high mileage, but i'd still try to look for something with low mileage, just for peace of mind...don't rush into it, you'll prob find something similar with lower mileage with similar price tag and you'll be glad you waited :wink:

Re: polo 55 plate 1.4 tdi....yes or no ? should i buy?

hmm it does seem a bit pricey for the mileage. which model is it?
this is what i bought last year:
Polo 2004 (54-plate) 1.4tdi
53,000 miles
5-door hatchback
Sport model with foggies, 16" barcelona alloys, the LCD climate control and cruise control :D

Picked it up for £4700...

Re: HID for the 9n

I've got HIDs in my dipped beams and fogs as well. Paid about £35 a set and it was much easier taking off the front bumper then removing the headlights and replacing the bulbs. It took me a best part of an afternoon, but then again I did it in December when it snowed heavily the day before with limi...

Re: Sh*T fuel economy?

i've got a 1.4tdi and a full tank of about 40litres gives me roughly 400-450miles and i'm always averaging around 45-50mpg. like the other guys said, depends how much you fill up, your driving style and also where you drive, i.e. short distances locally, or long distances on the motorway. i've manag...

Re: shark fin

Re: My Polo 9n 1.4TDI Sport

my JBL GTO 14001 amp is arriving tomorrow which should be a good match for the Kicker L7. Hope the weather's forgiving over the weekend so I can hook it all up! :D

Re: My Polo 9n 1.4TDI Sport

Haven't been on for a while so I thought I'd give an update. Done a few more mods since the HIDs. Changed the rear lights to 9N3 (Thanks to K.I.T.T. aka Ash for the wiring looms!), added a shark fin aerial, got some VW dustcaps, added footwell lights (hopefully put a better pic up soon), changed the...
