UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Do not get Michelin pilot premacys, they are rubbish. I keep hearing good things about Toyo Proxes and Pirelli P zeros. None are cheap though especially with a dodgy tyre size like yours (and mine).


www.mytyres.net will get you a good deal.

Complete nonsense!

It worked for me.

The best one I know of is Ombrello from weathertec. (www.ombrello.com I think). It is not cheap but one application will last for a year. The main one is Rainex, which you can buy anywhere, but only lasts a few months before you have to reapply. I'm using Ombrello atm and it is excellent. You can dr...

Think that's good? Imagine it chipped then!

Boy they're good fun!

And the MPG improves (If a bit smokey)

If you mean for a chip, then a lot of people I know reccomend www.jabbasport.com although if you have a non-turbo petrol engine, the power gains will not be that great for the money, and will be better spent on something else.

a rear spoiler is used to get better air flow over the rear of the car and is often used to lower the rear of the car thus making less wind resistance. also finishs off the toop of the boot nicely. im sorry what is the car you drive? But on a car like the polo, or Skoda Fabia which I own, it is not...

As much as spoilers are useless on cars smaller than a Golf, they are only of any use if the car is designed to generate downforce to start with (Hint - nothing like a polo, golf, focus, etc) BUT, for cosmetic reasons, only the std ones look any good, and as it is a VW spoiler you are fitting it wil...

You try from getting from Essex to Hownslow. It is a pain an the @rse at the best of times. It's bad enough getting to Brentford on a Sunday afternoon.


How old is she by the way......

There is one already on here somewhere (over the rainbow, way up high).

But I don't like people to be made jelous.

thinks long and hard.....

It's a bit far, but thanks for the offer (wether she knows about it or not).

If it was not best, why would the car companies sell it like that.

Is it a VW spoiler or is it from another company.

tempting......
