Featured Replies

VAG Parts Ltd supplied most of the stuff on the car, my contact there is Martyn - he is really helpful and has never let me down. If you mention James with the CUP (thats me) and the forum he will normally sort something out for you. Got to be careful with this steering wheel as there are loads of finishes available and I nearlly bought one with orange stiching from Ebay before I got Martyn on the case. My old standard GTi one is for sale if anyone is interested? Black leather and red stitching

how much?

hi you

where did u get the cup edition back bumper from and how much?

cheerz maria :)

VAG Parts supplied me all the parts on my car - ask for Martyn, mention this forum and he will sort you out a good price. I cant remember exactly how much the rear bumper was on it own as I bought a load of stuff on that order, I cant find the invoice either. I think it was a few hundred quid with all the bits needed.

thanks i'll ring him tomo

very nice m :-D 8, iv got a gti aswell, just got a forge dump valve, what is the best induction kit/ air filter for it ? cheers m8 :-D

I fitted a green panel filter and have been very happy with the results :-D As far as the best one I think that'll come down to personal preference

Been a while since I'v done anything appart from cleaning it so I thought I'd try a new gearknob. Always liked the Mk5 Polo GTi/Lupo GTi gearknob. Managed to get one at a good price off ebay and made it fit. Little different in its feel when driving but nothing worth noting. Think it looks a bit better than the standard silver top one.

Like the Edition 30 steering wheel I'v got it does exactly the same as the gearknob it replaced, but looks a little more special imo. Two pics, one fitted in the car (not very good photo though) and one of the new gearknob on its own so you can see the differences

stupid drunk idiot

Drunk drivers deserve to hit a wall and die.

fooking hell man, thats a fuckin crash and then some, what a flid!

let me know a price on the dash, may be interested in bodging it into a mk1

Cheers guys, it really hurts but at least I wasnt in it when idiot struck! The car is in a scrap yard in Manchester at the moment while I get pay out sorted, I'v taken all the bits off it I wanted to get and cant get anything else.

I have had loads of PM's so thought I'd list everything here. Here is a list of the bits I have for immediate disposal. I am open to serious offers on all of it and there is a link to the products for sale at various places. Please dont ask for my best price because my best price will be what I paid for it so please dont ask, tell me your best price and we can take it from there. I want to sell everything as soon as possible, but please dont insult me with a silly offer.

Front four pot Brembo brake set up - http://www.jabbasport.com/product_fulldeta...p?ProductID=151 - used for 10k only, the disks have about half mm lip on them, pads have loads of meat left on them, calipers are excellent condition, these really are the best brakes you can put on the Polo (imo, and I have tried all sorts!!) Please note you will need 17" alloys (at least) and possibly spacers to clear these monsters!

N75J Valve - https://sslrelay.com/s74326199.oneandonesho...ndex.shopscript - Please note the price quoted excludes VAT. NEVER used and as new

Forge recirc dump valve - http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/content.a...roduct=FMCL007P - Best recirc valve out there (imo) used for 10k and excellent condition, just been re polished!

Forge Front Strut Brace - http://www.forgemotorsport.co.uk/content.a...product=FMSBIBI - Please note this was NOT on the car when idiot struck, it was going to be repolished. There are some light marks on this where the bolts go, but over all good condition.

Edition 30 steering wheel (red stitching) - https://sslrelay.com/s74326199.oneandonesho...ndex.shopscript - On the car for 10k and incredibly hard to find. There are some light scratches to the top of the wheel where my wheel lock sat. Not bad scratches and no one would ever see them. As you see in the picture with no airbag, your airbag will fit if you have a GTi.

JE Piston Set 82.5mm 20V - http://www.jabbasport.com/product_fulldeta...p?ProductID=115 - Brand new, NEVER fitted

144mm Forged Con-Rods with ARP bolts - http://www.jabbasport.com/product_fulldeta...p?ProductID=143 - Brand New, NEVER fitted

Inconel / Nitrided Valves - http://www.jabbasport.com/product_fulldeta...p?ProductID=122 - Brand new, NEVER fitted

VAG 1.8T Baffled Sump - http://www.jabbasport.com/product_fulldeta...sp?ProductID=37 - Brand new, NEVER fitted

Polo GTi CUP Edition rear spoiler (3 peices) with fitting kit (including correct 3rd brake light) finished in Black. Brand new, NEVER fitted. This cost me £210 plus the paint, best offer gets it

Genuine Seat Ibiza Cupra R Front Mount Intercooler complete kit - ALL brackets, nuts, bolts, pipe work - EVERYTHING!!! Bigger and better than the Forge kit and has been developed by VAG. You will loose headlight washers if fitted though. Will cost over £800 from Seat (I paid £500)

If anyone is interested in any of the above please PM me.

Thanks again for all the kind words. Drunk dude will get whats comming I'm sure........
