Loud, and looks the $hit mate. Very nice.
Prefering the new polo's to the Audi A1's at the moment.

Picked up the car today from VWR. Car has Milltek Turbo back exhaust now. VWR Spring kit and Revo stage 1 software. Big brakes, Engine mounts, ARB,s, Coilovers, ITG Intake and Intercooler will be fitted once manufactured to VWR,s exacting standards.

Car sits nice now, should have come out of the factory like this imo. Not too low for all the speed bumps. On tick over the car has a much more purposeful sound. Once on the move the cabin noise, although louder is pleasing to the ear. Had a little run through the gears 4th to 7th in Sport mode and its truly ballistic in the way it eats up the revs. It definately would benefit from an intake as you can hear the filter gulping in the air on full throttle. Averaged 44mpg as well so very pleased with the first stage in the grand plan. Pro Race 1.2,s going on next week.

A few photo,s.

Any plans for some 18's under those arches?

Would fill them better imo.

Looks excellent.

The right colour, right drop and the wheels suit it.
Considering it's frugal too is a big bonus  :smiley:

No Steve, sticking with 17,s but have some pro race 1.2,s to go on with another 10mm offset, so should fill it out a bit more.
