UK-POLOS.NET - THE VW Polo Forum

Its about time I finally got some pictures up of my genesis!

Started off like this two years ago:



After its big clean today:



My new Scirocco GT2 Recaros The bolster had collapsed as they all do, so I got on the case of sorting it. Managed to get a brand new bolster foam that VW had sitting on the shelf in germany for 26 years! So now its as good as new



My freshly refurbished BBS RAs, which I did myself - rather pleased with the result!



Some more shots:

Its a fantastic little car and I love it to bits to be fair. Comments welcome!

What do you love more? This or the GTi?

Tough question. Love the speed and moderness of the GTI, but love the classiness of this

thats not an answer!

Very nice dude. Prefer the gti personally, but everyone loves something with a bit of history.

Looks awesome Alex, can't beat a proper retro Hatch Great job on the wheels too

What have you done with the Colour concept wheels?

Cheers

Indeed they came out well.

Currently they are gathering dust whilst I decide what to do with them lol

They are very cool wheels, always had a soft spot for them

If you want to give them away I might know somebody interested lol

If the price is right I may consider it. Pm me

this car looks absolutely fantastic.
can't believe i've got something like this on my doorstep and i've never seen it before.
hat off to you sir.

what wheels where in the origional picture?

BBS Interlagos. They are the wheels that came on the Mk5 Colour Concept - rather rare to be fair! Still have them just not in use atm.

I'm intrested

I will now google them.

What will you be destroying this winter then? Mk3 or GTi? I would hate to have either out around the south coast this winter!

Mk3 is always out in winter. GTI is always tucked away
