Hey guys, had a quick look around the site and it looks like you have some lovely polos on here.

Yesterday was the start of a very hectic day for me as my much loved mk2 1.0 seat arosa was to be sold.

The car left me at around 2 o'clock and then it was straight up to Lichfield to pick up the new car.

When I got to the garage I knew the car was coming home with me as it was perfect, just what I was looking for.

A 9n3 polo gti

With 48k miles and 1 careful owner.

So money was exchanged and hands were shaken and off I set again through the floods back home.

So here she is :) hope you enjoy, have lots of plans but for the time being I'm just enjoying the luxury and the power of the 1.8 20v turbo after coming from a 1.0 8v arosa.

Haha yes that's the one mate :) he wouldn't move off the asking price and to be fair I was quite happy to pay it as the car is absolutely mint in every way and has an extensive vw service history even down to things like bulbs washer fluid refills so I'm very happy.

Thank you bud :)

Just a quick photo to keep the thread updated.

Awesome car!! I so badly would love 1 of these next. If you don't mind me asking how old are you and what's the insurance like?

Thank you man, I love it.

I'm 21 with 2years ncb paying £900 fully comp which is a bargain considering I was paying £700 Tpft for my 1.0 arosa haha.

That's soo good gonna check it for next year on 1 of these as I want a 9n3 next. Want to get a 1.4tdi but shall look thanks man.

Any ideas on what you can get out of these on a standard internals?

I'd highly reccomend getting one mate, really lovely car. As for power a know that a miltek exhaust, forge intercooler and a remap will take it to 200bhp as to how far you can push them I'm not 100%

ello moite When's lows coming then?

Koooop! Hey dude, haha lows will come in a few months when the bank is looking healthier.

First present for the car today

Spent a few hours this weekend washing all the salt/grit/dirt off the car not amazing photos I'm afraid as I wanted to get on with it so used my phone instead of dslr.

Started with a very dull unloved looking polo

Got her up on stands so I could give it a proper was of the arches and backs of the alloys

Definitely need to do something about that exhaust in the near future...

After a leaving the apc on the arches the dwell I blasted them off and they came up pretty nice

The backs came up better but not amazing going to need to buy some tar remover I think..

Next up for the snowfoam. I used autobrite magifoam with the autobrite lance

Gave the underside some love to get rid of all the salt that's been put on the roads

Seemed to be getting some strange looks from passers by during my own personal foam party haha

I really need to do this with my car (take the wheels off and clean the arches). Looks spotless!

Nice update, made me smile. :)
