Hey boss are you still after the mk2 bumper?

Cars getting better everytime I read through this thread :p Would you say coilovers handle dramatically better than shock/spring sets for polos? Also what brakes you running on the front? Realising standard plop brakes are useless for AFH.

I think thats debateable really, it depends where your driving and what the road surface is like i would say, plus it depends you want from your suspension.

Ime running g40 brakes up front and a disc conversion on the rear, but i never had a problem with g40's and drums to be fair! I've also got a set of wilwood 4pots to fit under 13's that ime trying to get from a friend whos engine ime building!

It would mainly be to stop that dreaded opposite rake polo's seem to adopt, although i've purposefully sat the back quite high to stop this. It would be mainly to get it sat perfect for shows and for a stiffer ride in the corners.

Yeah i seen the rear disc conversion looks alot neater, my mate reckons mk2 8v gti brakes are the way to go, but just wondered if there was a common OEM upgrade for polo's before i start with them?

Your car doesn't even qualify for a "yearly" sticker

True

I've a sticker to go on it 'trailer queen'

i feel like a cheat with the daily sticker on now as it certainly wont be my daily through winter anymore!

hahahahahaha

:)

well me and my rear number plate decided to part ways today and i couldnt find it anywhere...

so it was an excuse for some nice new clean plates :)

i think they have made a real difference to the overall look!

surprising the difference plates can make. looks smart. Shame that sticker is still on it though haha!

ahh i do love this car, seriously <3

well another block arrives tonight to be honed and rebuilt yet again with new piston rings and my lightened internals, lets hope the oil burning stops this time...

if it doesnt then ime totaly stumped and the cars going on the scrapheap!

dont scrap it, just buy a G40, be better anyway

Well olly (tramp) dropped off the block tonight as promised :) great fella and had a good chat!

Would have started on it tonight but mother nature says no unfortunatly!

the hell did he find a block from? haha!

Unless he had it off Dan with his other AFH.

Olly's a don, bit of a dick too tho haha!
