Pollyanna (Polly) Polo 1.4 TDI

Featured Replies

Hi,

 

After being a member for nearly a year, I thought I better post my build.. 

I used to own a Mazda MX-5 which was appropriately nicknamed "Deathtrap". Anyway.. after spending many monies/days on the MX-5 I decided enough was enough, this enlightenment happened when I could literally put my fist through the rust. So I bought my 2008 1.4 TDI Match Polo with 32,000 miles on the clock.

 

Here's a picture of the day I got her;

My original plan wasn't to mod her at all, as I just wanted something reliable with a bit of power. But that all changed..

This was her a week ago;

Up until this point I have done the following: 

Debadged the rear, Sprayed some interior components and added some vinyl stripes on the front.

However today I've bought some new wheels!

I've also been playing around with the TDI badge for a while, not sure about this so I welcome criticism/opinions;

List of mods to come;

Straight pipe exhaust, Lower it!, and a remap. 

 

Thanks for taking the time to look at my build, any comments are welcome. Hope to see some of you at Tatton Park on the 7th!

Completely lose the TDi badge I reckon, I used to have one just like this and it was a brilliant car the only reason I don't have it anymore is because I have a little one and getting her in and out of any car is hard work
