I think you've made the right choice as I think the corsa VXR are mostly driven by chavs well at least where I live. I was at the lights the other day and I saw the corsa coming from behind and flashing his lights and revving his engine and I don't normally get dragged into doing races from the lights but I was interested to see if my stage one gti would be able to cut it with the corsa and think he had a shock when the little polo took off and stayed in front till I turned off. I was expecting him to be right on my bumper but I was pulling away. Anyway I think the polos a great car and has a lot of feed back compared to my old s3 which didn't have much feed back through the steering. Keep the good work up mate as your gti is looking great

yeah mate I think your right Thanks I copied your black & red front vw badge

+ people underestimate the polo gti and as for getting dragged in to racing I don't need dragging haha could be a bad thing tho
the VXR i looked at was mapped with a full remus exhaust forged pistons dump valve and uprated intake.drilled/grooved brakes + coil-overs only thing was I found out it had had 3 engines blow up from the same problem so best to stick with the polo
