Alright folks!

Its been quite a while since I posted here on Clubpolo so thought it was about time to get back into it!

I've had numerous polo's in the past, including 1 1.0 6n, 3 6n 16v's (2 which I bought from here and brought back to Ireland) and a 6n2 gti!

I recently picked up a red 6n 16v, a rare find over here! It was going for small money so I jumped at it! Wasnt expecting much condition wise but its in great shape for a car thats 15 years old!

The car came to ireland from Jersey in 2008 and was owned by an elderly couple since!

When I bought it, it was your standard 6n 16v with electric windows and sunroof! Only 49k miles on the clock with full vw service history!

Since I got it, I fitted coilovers (Thanks PhilJ), Steffan BCWs 14x8 and 9s, clear indicators and side repeators, badgeless grill, de-wipered the rear and removed the side moulding to give it that clean look!

I have a new 6n2 gti splitter to go on but waiting to get the front bumper smoothed first before fitting...also have 6n2 rears in the garage to go on!

Anyway, time for some pics! Let me know what ye think, good and bad of course! and some further idea's what I can do with it!

One with my BMW!

An Irish 6n is something special, not many about. looks in great nick too

Vaayyy nice

Good to see more polos from the Emerald Isle.

Dnt see many 16vs about Ireland

This one popped up for sale one evening in Donegal, after a phonecall I was on my way up to see it 10 minutes later!

Must camber the rear...should I go with shim's or go with the washer's?

Thanks for the comments folks!

Well the law isn't as bad here than the UK!

Where's the best place to buy shims, apart from eBay?!

lol was thinking the same thing

So i hope sean doesnt mind me hi-jacking his thread!

Havnt really wrote much on clubpolo before but have always followed threads on here!

I bought this car around a month ago from sean

Have also gone through a few 6n's myself..

The first being my 1.0..

Then came along the 16v bug..

This car unfortunatly broke my heart and had to get rid, i had problems testing it etc..

i had also seen the red 16v for sale while i was selling this one and was sick that i didnt have the money to buy, before i knew it sean had bought it!!

BUT...in a moment of lunacy, hope he doesnt mind me sayin, he decided to sell!!

Ill let the pictures do the talking...

I had my own wheels, and BAM..

and with my mates GTI!

With the fleet!!!

only pic i act have at the mo of the gti splitter!

All Comments welcome and of course updates to follow
