Alex2005t’s Polo Gti!

Featured Replies

Model: Mk5/6n2 Polo GTi

Engine: 1.6 16v with BMC CDA Limited Edition Silver

Suspension: AP Coilovers

Brakes: Greenstuff Pads all round

Wheels and Tyres: 15” Borbet BS wheels with a touch of stretch

Exterior Styling: Black front badge, red stripe painted on grill, aero wipers

Interior Styling: Blue smelly foot!

ICE and Security: Standard

Comments: I’ve had the car about a year now bought with 37k on the clock! Was standard when I bought it from a middle aged couple! I have modified it to my liking over a long period of time bit by bit, the last addition being the wheels. Future plans include deleting the ‘Polo’ badge from the rear, S2000 aerial, hella clear rear lights tinted red, double din dvd/satnav, upgrading the standard speakers and hidden exhaust.

The pictures taken with my mates SLR by the sea at South Shields near Newcastle:

just purchased some clear hella rear lights from a guy on here which i will get sprayed candy red leaving the LED strip :) and I'm going to get rid of the 'polo' badge from the rear

other than that I'm happy for the near future! :)

I'm sure more things will get done to it in many months to come though :p
