Lowering springs booked in to be done in a couple of weeks aswell. 

Wow!  You have done a lot since having her!  I miss my GTi now more than ever looking at this thread.  I traded mine in for a brand new T6 transporter and got a ridiculously low payment for her!  I was then to,d we were moving into the multi-storey car park at work so gave me the chance to buy another polo so I now have a 1.6 GLX.  Got plane to make her a quick little car eventually but for now she will be standard.  Your GTi is just awesomeness!

I would love a Transporter or a Caddy, or just any van, to make it into a camper! Love this little thing - loads more of little bits to do. Get it lowered, headlight brows and potentially strip interior and get bucket seats and harness. Should probably clean it first though! :tongue:
