The Gauges are from "Autostyle", they do the work nicely. :thumbs:

Changing plans. Changing gears with the front stick. First gear when you put the stick to the front, the rest when you pull the stick towards you..
Second stick is the e-brake. :thumbs:

Very clever stuff. Is it intended for competition or just as a general track slag?

Am I missing something or is that a solid rear axle?

Doesn't that make cornerring a little challenging?

gotta admit....... ur the maddest mo fo i ever seen for doing that but it deffinately seems worth it. is it gonna be road legal? if so wat ur insurance think the engine is? if u finish modding and spraying that, that will be the maddest but yet probably best polo ever.....

they should do a new fast and the furious.... they could call it.....

the fast and the furious euro speed...... or something like that.

that is an awesome piece of kit!!!! ?Them steelies!!! :shock: I want so bad.....and also when the schmidts are on, look at the camber on the fronts :D

The rear axle is solide, but i know thry have changed it recently, as one wheel was lifting all the time with the solid axle....making it very difficult to drift!

One of the best polos iv ever seen! A rear bike engine Euro style olop....its what dreams are made of!!!
