Alright!

Just bought myself a Polo 6N2. Sold my Lupo today and travelled all the way from Central Scotland to Tyne and Wear today to pick it up!

I have quite a lot of plans for the car :).

Wait for the mods .

Day after purchase the car was cleaned and waxed :). Here is a picture before the mods begin.

So.. A rather large box arrived yesterday..

In this rather large box was these:

Getting lowered tonight :).

Just fitted my GTI Grill! I personally think this and the GTI front splitter make a major difference to the car.

I'm very pleased with the result and I'm extremely pleased with how it handles and the ride comfort. It is probably more comfy than the original! Joms are amazing for the money!

More plans:

GTI splitter

Colour code handles

Possibly colour code bumper strips?

GTI alloys or bbs rs'

Shark fin aerial

Alpine/focal ICE

Budget has been pretty tight so haven't got any updates. Went to lower the car a little more at the front tonight. Was pretty tight even although they were greased! Had to fetch a hammer to move the rings!

First wheel off and I looked at the tread.. Tracking getting done this Friday and I'm going to see about getting the slight camber removed. My next mod will most likely be colour coded door handles & bumper strips or GTI splitter.

Looking so far so good, keep it up dude

Personally, for the cost it's good. I can't really say because i've never been in a car with expensive coilovers but mines are all the way down at the back now and there is lots of threads left at the front (pics aren't up to date) and it is fine from my point of view.

Washed and waxed the car this morning and got some pictures of how it sits now. I need a GTI splitter, RX2s and a GTI spoiler in my life :(.

Rclick central locking kit purchased. How do you know if my Polo has a pollen filter?

It will be in the top right hand corner as you're looking into the engine under a large plastic cover that goes across the car.

Got central locking fitted. Here is a quick video of it's operation and how the wiring was routed:
