So now I own a 2011 candy white Polo GTI, being turbo & supercharged its definatly a bit of a jump from the 1.4 8v 75bhp Peugeot 106 on power and its looks
Anyways, will stop boring you with the chatter and let you enjoy some photo's and slight progress since picking it up around month ago.
One of the first photo of the car after a test driving and immediately signing the papers

Okay picked it up on a Monday morning a week after signing the papers and agreeing to buy the car, it had been in my possession for less than, lets say an hour and i had de-wipered (speedtech rear glass wiper blank) the rear and lamin-x yellow tinted the fog lamps (no photo's)
Only the next morning it was up on a 2 post ramp with its original suspension removed and replaced with FK Highsport full hight adjustable coilovers

wound it about half way down then went to work, started refurbishing the wheels (were already mint except for two small stone chips) prepped, primed and then painted them myself in Honda Galaxy Grey
Centre caps removed, tyres off the bead, masked up, prepped, primed ready for base coat and lacquer

Base coated & lacquered

Baked the wheels, got them back on and the car back down on all four wheels. went for a drive, pulled over and took a side shot to see how it sat suspension wise, pretty even, it'll do for now

Drove it round for a few weeks, then on the saturday, washed, clay barred, machine polished, polished, waxed, then waxed again, all using meguiars products, resulted in a nice deep white shine and got rid of pretty much all swirl marks that were around the car, also valeted the interior, engine bay & got the metal polish out on the exhaust tip.

First rolling shot from a mate of mine whos within the same group (check us out over on our blog - http://www.establishment365.com) on the way to the Ultimate Dubs 2012 car show, very happy with the car at this point given its pushing, it still puts out a decent MPG, so its a great commuter for work until you give it the lead foot!

then picked up a set of 'europl8' pressed plates, to get rid of them horrible plastic GB number plates it came with, I'll leave you with a cheeky instagram photo on the way to work one morning last week when it was foggy - you can just about see the rear pressed plate in this picture.

P.s.. New wheels and tyres are being ordered within the next month and i hope to achieve a nice level of 'static' stance for now......
