Cheers for that!

Hi guys

Apologies for being a newb, I wondered if there is a way of retro fitting the LED headlights from a GTI+ to a GTI or if the aftermarket ones were any good? If we buy one it will get used on dark country roads a lot and my wife prefers the vision of the headlights on my Golf R which has ...

dudes

someone ran into my girlfs 9n polo on a roundabout and then f****d off.

Any ideas where I could source a front bumper and passenger wing?

What kind of mileage should I expect from the standard continentals?

I drive it hard sometimes but quite rarely

Its a 1.2e 65bhp model

Picked up the car lastnight

I heard a neighbours car do teh same when he set off the other day?

Cheers guys

I was fobbed off at first by the girl on reception but if you speak to the service manager you will get an answer.

This is what VW UK told me.

Hi guys

My girl friend has a 1.2 65bhp polo on a 53 plate.

WIthin the first month of having it I wasnt happy with the squeaky suspension so I said she should take it back in.

They ended up stripping and rebuilding the rear brakes, GOD KNOWS WHY! I wasnt happy but we had been messed about so much ...
