nothing harsh to say about that

gorgeous car!

Good news is I'm looking to subtley mod is aswell! (any suggestions)

cars generally look better with abit of lowering, So thats my first suggestion.

Bar that body work looks great as is, Its got factory tints. Maybe a cheeky set of splits

Personally i think lowering the car would benefit both handling and ahstetics will improve ,

I would go for a coilover ajustable suspension setup .

Ajustable dampening would be prefreble iff you would like to maintain a smoother ride .

yeah the factory tints just look so much better, also the only problem I'm having is its a 1.2 and slightly sluggish (I'm coming off of a mk5 fiesta zetec-s) (blue imp) so I'm use to a bit more power, any performance suggestions that arent going to kill the engine?

Welcome :-)

Looks good as it is tbh, as said lower it and maybe change the wheels. And remove the Polo badge perhaps.. but that's all I'd do.

yeah was tempted to get some old r32 multi spokes but think theyd rub to much

engine wise you arent going to get a massive amount of power gains out of a 1.2. the only options you have really is an exhaust, induction kit etc etc or an engine swap.

as said above too, subtle lowering and a set of rims and you're onto a winner! welcome to CP mate.

yeah I've got a new cone air filter that i was going to put on but the pipe that joins the engine to the air box does not want to come off the airbox! have tried uncliping pulling and everything, on my old car i would just cut it but dont really fancy doing that on a new car, any suggestions or anyone else having problems with this?

Stunning. First one I've seen in white!

Arn't Eibanc springs covered by VW Warranties?

Sweet car!

Is that an FSI?

because you could swap for one of them, or i bet the new age engines take well to remaps and SS exhaust
