done a little bit of work today put 6x9's in and jaxked car up and got it ready for the water pump to go in :)

Fitted a new water pump and all alright now but know its not keeping its water friend said it could be the head gasket :/ can anyone help ??

If it's the head gasket, first thing to check would be the oil? Is it going quickly? Also when you take the oil cap off, check to see if you can spot a milky substance around the cap, if there is any, your head gasket will probably need replacing! :) hope this helps!

SOMEONE PLEASE HELP

first thing i would say is put some antifreeze in your car! that looks like rusty water to me and wen the winter comes u might face some problems, drop all the coolant out completely and fill her up with the right mix of water/ antifreeze

My car polo was put on coilovers as soon as I bought it so never really saw it standard hahaha.

But yeah please put number plate back or get front bumper smoothed. And take the pvw sticker off the window.

(not hating just adding my 2p :D)
