Afternoon all, I've been trawling around on here for a while without registering and finally thought it was time to say hello. I've been on another Polo site but they dont seems as good as this one.
Anyway about 2 months about the mrs got a nice little black 6n2 2001 75K partial VW service history plus it had already had the pedal box replaced and cambelt etc all done. It had been slammed on coilovers and has pepperpots (boo, dont like these much). The boy was selling it because it drove like a bag of s**t and had done ever since he had the coilovers put on and the wheels were proper on the p*** plus the exhaust was blowing. He was right. Knocking, clanking, clunking all over the place. I got it home took off the front coilies and to my absolute amazement what ever monkey put them on decided that they obviously didn't need top mount bearings, quick trip to euro parts and £50 later all's smoooooth again. Another quick trip to have all the camber and tracking done and she's a minter again, result.
Anyway, story over, you all seem really helpfull. i'll put some pics up soon.
