I'm never going to actually paint it lol, I'm selling as soon as I have the money to get something else lol.

New exhaust mount vs old one

Can't get it on though as I can't get under the car properly with enough room, might take it to a garage and see if they can get it on the ramps for me.

just jack up one side? only need the sill about 1ft off the floor, will give you plent of room to nip under and do it :p use a stand or something though, fuck having a car land on you

Epic rubber mount. lol

What you thinking of getting bud?

I've had the car right up on the jack with axle stands under it and everything, had the sill like 2-3ft off the floor.

The mounting is literally smack bang in the centre of the car and you have to move the whole exhuast system in order to get the mount on and I just really can't do it haha.

Probably mk4 golf dave :)

oh its the one at the middle of car just before it bends...so like furthest back on one the tunnel? drop the mounting bracket off (4x 13mm nuts) push it on exhaust and bracket...bit of wd40 will make it slip on easy..the bolt bracket back on :)

Cheers I'll try that when I'm back from holiday.

Just took it to the garage and they wont put it on the ramp because it's too low...:(

Ah right fair one bud, doesn't your bro have one?

See i'm thinking either a 6n valver (if decent enough one pops up that's not over 300miles away from me lol) or a 6n2 for next car

Been tempted by the late mk3 golfs but wanna stick with the polos for a bit!

Stop being a pussy!.

Oh wait i forgot you haven't driven more than 5miles out of Plymouth EVER.

Pussy.

The car looks sick, I'm tempted by a mk4 myself, or a mk3.

Got quoted on a mk3 16v gti for 900quid fully comp, yeah bois!.

I think you should get a mk3.5 golf cab, they are seriously filthy. i want.

Yeah he does, this is it:

I've been tempted by 6n2's and mk3 golfs also, doubt I'll go for a mk3 as it's no newer than what I have now.

I just want something faster and newer which wont constantly fall apart as this polo drives me mad

Edit: took it to another garage which wouldn't try put it on the ramps :(

Paul exaggeration to the max.

Go and re-do your bumper so it doesn't look a pile of gash ;d

And cool bud, yeah fair enough I spose! I think come time my insurance renews, will sell the car and save up for a bit and look into getting a 6n2!

What litre engine golf you thinking of getting/can afford on insurance?

I'm not sure, my brothers is a gti and he might want something new so I could maybe buy that from him depending on insurance.

Or a 6n2 gti would be cool :)

Grounded :p

How's this car going dude.

I've been watching it for ages now it's all quite lol

I'm still here lol, I got back from holiday last week and havnt done anything to the car for a while lol.

I did finally manage to get the exhaust mount on though lol.
