Hey! welcome :)

Love your car, has come on a long way since I saw it at last years Polo show. The colour is fantastic!.

I'm on the 'other' forum also but I don't frequent forums so much these days.
Anyhow, I have a red 16V which is standard apart from a slight lowering.

I'm selling it soon I think to most likely get a Fabia!.

How do chap. Sweet ride, I have to agree with everyone else on the colour!

Right then:

Future: If I can get over my chronic modding laziness and get up to Wrexham, Demon Tweeks will kindly supply me with some Eibach lowering springs. Then I need my alloys refurbishing, which I'm investigating atm, but probably in Wolverhampton, and in black chrome with a diamond cut rim. Nice. And finally a Powerflow 'stealth' exhaust that will stay hidden behind the stock rear bumper will require a trip to Stafford I think!
