My Polo

Post by gary87 »

Long term reader, but don't really post that much, thought it was a chance to show what my car looks like. Bought it in December and have done a few wee things since then. One lady owner from new with full VW service history, spare wheel still even in the plastic.

2003 9N Polo Twist
1.4 PD TDi 75PS
Jetex Panel Filter
FK Highsport Coilovers
Bumper Mouldings colour coded
Size mouldings colour coded
Skoda Octavia VRS handles, colour coded, de locked passenger side
US Spec 2003 VW Sharan stubby aerial
German spec Audi A6 Variant Pepperpot Speedline wheels 16x7 et25 [with 20mm adapters]

12 weeks after getting my wheels and a lot of hoo-ing and haa-ing about whether they were the right wheels for the car and a set of wrong adapters courtesy of H&R [thanks to Phill at JK's for sorting that out] eventually got my wheels on. Pics make the car look a lot higher than it is and the front needs to come down a bit if only I could find my C spanners. Lower et means they really fill the arches and no scrubbing at all which is a bonus.

C&C Please :D

I like it m8 looks good, imo i would get vw caps for your wheels though :) i know what you mean about having to wait to get your wheels on, i`ve had my new wheels for about 5 or 6 weeks but can`t get them fitted as they sent the wrong bolts first of all then when i got the right bolts noticed the bloody wheels wouldn`t clear the front calipers :evil: still waiting on my spacers coming in bloody raging, had my other wheels sold too :shock:

thanks for all the feedback so far, lowered the front another 15mm the other night, sits a lot better now.
