Hi Guys

Just took delivery of my new Polo GTI yesterday.

Over 100 miles clocked up already. Can`t wait until she`s nicely run in, then we`ll see what she can do.

Here are some quick pics for those of you who have never seen a blue one before. The weather has been rubbish today, so when the sun is out I`ll take some more so you can see how the colour looks.

Hope you like it

Cheers

Snake-Plissken

thanks,

a better trye than what came with mine, couldn't get Dunlops when they were due as Dunlop had no stock, so was a toss up between Conti Sport 2 or the Mich Exalto, so trying the Mich on at the moment to see how they last....

Strangely the spare tyre on the space saver spare wheel is a Dunlop 15"
I guess this is a cost cutting idea as my old GT came with a full size 16" alloy with original Bridgestone tyre.

possibly more weight saving than panny pinching being the gti varient

Thats odd cos my GTI came with a 16" Steel wheel with a Dunlop tyre?

mine being a 56 plate came with foam, as did my 06 plate one too

iv put a monza in the boot though now as i have my comps back on, car aint seen the road for a month, being doing a serious clean in the my garage

should hopefully get my edition 30 steering wheel tomorrow and so get that fitted, will look awesome then

yeah mine came with the stupid foam stuff to, so i got a steel wheel and tyre from the vw dealer when i got the car new,

Also I thought you couldn't have different size wheels on a axle by law e.g 16" one side and 15" the other?!?!
