Re: Disc brakes

"I thought it was all SEL, GTI, R-Line and BlueGT's that came with rear discs, all other spec came with drums, maybe you go lucky and they ran out of drums that day" I don't think that they would run out of drums - it was made in Africa. Yeah and we use vuvuzela's to soundthe horn :lol:

Re: Lowering springs

Shouldn't affect warrenty if it's the Vw eibach kit that are 30mm all round...here in SA they didn't have a problem that my car was lowered because it was sourced and fitted from VW.

not sure if other countries allow it?? :?

Re: Pogo's CW Comfortline 1.4 Polo 6R

something like that....like the 9n3's used the Seat Splitter, i'm looking for somehting as subtle as that, just to give the front end more of a David Coulthard look :lol: not much available here in SA in terms of stuff like that for the 6r - we have to import - and importing costs loads :( nevermind...

I have 18's on my 6R GTI with 215/35/18 Yoko S-drive Tyres and I've got H&R srpings and it doesn't touch. So you're safe to put 18's :wink:

How is the ride with 18's and that low profile tyre "35" - that is like riding on rims (post up a pic of this madness) :lol: :wink:
