I've just got a shark fin. No idea of its significance over a normal aerial. Must be more than cosmetic?

Not uncommon to change the original bee sting to a shark fin if you add SatNav or premium GSM phone kit or DAB etc.

Like I say if you've got retro fit SatNav they fitted that style before the later version with a stubby stick.

Ahh, makes sense. Mine has the phone kit thing sticking out of the glovebox. Must get round to removing the ugly thing some time.

You need to watch with the stubby ones for reception. The polo 6R is half the length and I think under 20quid (dbl check your thread size before you buy :))
