Comments: Before I learned to drive I was a massive ford fan, in particular the WRC models, from the RS2000 and RS200 to modern day Escort and Focus thats why I've had the sparco stuff on there. :-D

Standard on the day I bought it March 2008

Kermit was bought into a family of polo's as my parents had both got identical 9n's....and a Range Rover

I kept it standard for a year then then i got chavvy! March 2009

The easisest way to indentify my car at a show is peer inside and see if 'Nana is there as he lives in the car!

Then i got myself new grill, indicators and colour coded splitter.

Then it was wheel refurb time and a front 16v bumper in time for GTI International '09

Then the lowering finally came!!

Then I went on holiday at the Polo Show!

Then a photoshoot at my favorite location, Festival place carpark in Basingtoke!

Then White lip around the grill and proper blue Rear Clusters (which you just make out!)

Then the photo which is November in the Club Polo 2010 Calender (and was taken in Nov '09!)

And then came the winter look: Dec 2009/Jan 2010

UPDATES 03/03/10!!

Badged grill now back on for now! And all grillles are back!

Still need to respray front bumper, put the green side repeaters in and tint headlights

Stickers: Monster energy, Kermit, and South Coast polo's, blue lights and a dented rear valance

Still need to put the spoiler on and replace the lower valance

16v interior, needs a clean! and Polo sill trims

in the third picture down, is that a halford tip on the standard exhaust?

"went on holiday at the polo show"

nice little story there.

See you at the polo show in summer, or possibally a meet before if i can be arsed to travel a bit.

or maybe you will come to the meet we have down here, i will prob be starting it again in a couple months, or 3months when the cold goes and doesnt get dark so early.

And yes when it gets a bit lighter i can come to the southcoast meet! Only problem is i work at 4 every sunday so i can only stay for aprox an hour!

But yes we will def be meeting up for shows! you going to UD?

I'm not sure about UD yet.

The meet in christchurch i wont be going to any unless I'm down that way at the time, as its like 90miles from me.

Fair play for trying something abit different. Id say it could do with abit of work still, to make it look a little less chav-tastic. But if it floats your boat fair play :) I'm contemplating abit of motor-sportesque styling myself.

The Motor sports theme came from the love of rallying! But i agree it does a look a bit chavtastic! I'll probably be sorting the rear end next month when i'm trying to source a rear 16v bumper. :-)

Hopefully some valver seats, coming my way...

green tinted headlights/side reps? stubby erial? colour coded handles if you can find the colour?

:)

You guna be in the polo at the polo show?

Already bought side repeaters and stubby aerial, though the aerial will probs be a show only thing as i listen to the radio too much!

GOing to buy a shit load of paint so i can do colour code bumpstrips/door handles, and also so i can respray the front bumper!

16v Rear coming at some point! Spoiler going on! And almost certainly will be at polo show!

erm.. You WILL

Got plenty of plans then to keep you busy, will be good to see the changes at Inter's/Polo Show.. have decided to keep my polo for a couple months so i can save up for a minter mk2 golf GTi.. got a few things to pay off this month first aswell, just makes sense...

Try get hold of some mk5 sidestrips and colour code them instead of the mk4's, they sit more flush are would just look more smart :)
