bummer, just missed out seeing it by a few days :-(
Our new Polo GTI has arrived!
Nice little thing, a lot more refined than the old 9N - more "grown up" sort of feel.
Will be getting a few more miles under our belt before the big dismantling....

Nice looking thing!Originally Posted by jnrdavo
I spotted a white Golf R for sale in the used yard
Go APR!!
OK, so no Launch Control, but even without I matched VW's claim of 6.9 0-100, so its a quick little bugger!
It has a bit of torque steer, but apart from that, its fantastic!
cool, shame it's a bit small and the boot has shrunk from the previous polo, and you'd have to wait so long to get one
very interested to watch this thread and see what you do to it!!
Go APR!!
More updates....

Hoyhoy.
Thanks Guy, going by those last two pics I see my challenge getting bigger & bigger.
Me knackers are big, but me think that they have to GROW a bit more.
If the sky's are clear, me is going to have fun testing them out.
Guy, I might have one little trick up me sleeve, the young fellow (Ben) wants to have a run.
He's fairly familiar with Waky but has never had a go in a FWD.
So it could be your STIG in the New Polo against my STIG in the Old Polo.
Me looking forward to the day.
So Its on folks.
Hooroo. Eddy
06 Shadow Blue POLO GTI
Would be good to see how Ben's times go, he knows the track pretty well & if you don't overdrive the FWD (keep it smooth) - it's faster. Remember turn 2, turn 8 (Fishhook) & turn 10 (onto the main straight) are slow in / fast out jobbies.
P.S. Thats Warren Luff in the car. We got some video, I must get it on your tube!
