I've gotta get a clip of that!!
I'm flattered
didn't quite know how to respond as you were saying how much you liked my car as I don't take compliments that easily! But thanks!
Who was I talking to at the petrol station near Ipswich? Someone with a silver Mk5 GTi and a UK-POLOS T-Shirt? My memory sucks!
Don't suppose anyone took any pics of this car over the weekend by any chance? If so
[email protected] would love to receive an e-mail with attached pics if poss!
Regards,
Alex Grant

I ended up at the back of a convoy who all missed the turning, so I followed them incase they knew a shortcut only to come off at the next round about and go back, must have been around 20 of us.
That's quite funny, I should've been in that convoy but I locked myself out and ended up missing it. Took me about 6 hours to get to Ipswich so it sounds as if I actually got there before everyone anyway!
What part of Cardiff are you from? I've not seen your Polo around.
PS check out
www.elite1000-cardiff.co.uk it'd be nice to have another Polo along!!!

Sounds like it might be him, can't remember if the GTi had tints or not though.

The 8 hours was there and back. Only took about 3 1/2 hours to get there. With a few stops on the way back.
I used to live in Fairwater, Cardiff but now live out near Penarth.
And I shall check out the website!

3 and a half hours? How??? Like I say, it took me 6, of which 2 were on the M4. It took me ages to get around the M25 - frustratingly I hit that at rush hour - then had to pick someone up en route.
I think that was the GTi I saw at the service station, I definately saw it at the show itself as I remember the plate!

Well Built - Thanks mate...
Yes, it was me... I was with Dan Hardhitter IIRC.
Was it on Sunday on the way home? In the Shell with about a million VW's queuing for Optimaxâ„¢?
Anyway, I kept mistaking your GT for Dan's! You don't see many in that colour!

I left at 5:00 am, No traffic at all. M25 was dead.
Oh, and glad to have met you Josh, you've given me some idea's on what to do with my polo!

Yep that's the one! Mine was in the queue ahead of Dan's, and that
in a Scooby nicked my space in the queue for the pump.
My GT's grey though, Dan's is Windsor Blue, similar in that light though I guess!

No worries, I've always seen your car on your signature at Porka and thought 'God thats nice'. Its bassically everything I like personally about a modded VW!!
Then when I saw you and your car on the 'show and shine' I just thought I'd regret it later if I didn't come and say hello.
Didn't mean to embarrass you, reason probably being I was talking to one of those 'Win a Ferrari' girls before you. Must have been in charm mode!!

Yeah, I cant believe how many Mk 3's there were at that shell garage.
There was Krupa in front of me and Wayne (dont think he comes on here) behind queing for the same pump. Krupa, after you went a few more Mk 3's turned up too.
Should have taken a picture, but i didnt have the camera

Hello NJ,
I was the one peering up your arches to see your blue coils.
Your car is very nice, btw. I like that blue
