Looks really nice, I think out of the trio the polo looks the best. I had a test drive in a Fabia vrs and the engine is sweet. How do you find it compared to mk6 gti you had?

I think the 1.4TSI sounds better than the 2.0TSI in the Mk6 and the initial urgency and low down grunt from the supercharger makes it better around town, hasn't got the legs to pull all the way to the red line like the 2.0, and in the higher speed ranges you really feel the difference  :smiley:

A question for Eddie or Darren, do you know if it's possible to retro fit auto headlights to the Polo 6R?

I thought thats what it would be.
Looks nice but i could never own a black daily driver it would drive me crazy.

It will get washed at least once a week so black doesn't bother me like that, on the plus side there isn't many colours that reflect like this  :drool: :drool:



And this was before the supernatural  :smiley:

Well, shave my legs and call me grandma! I have never won anything and this is the first time! And I got a Gold Star!

Congratulations Mr.P. I'm sure within the next 4-6 weeks it will start morphing into something quite different. Roll on the modding. Perhaps we can call it THE ROLO.

If you get your vag-com lead out steve see if there is any option in the BCM for it.

The Rain Light Sensor is the same as in the golf.
The interior mirror in the polo is only listed for the polo. so that might need changing
Do you have a light switch with auto?

Looking spanking after a bit of proper TLC mate! Very surprised at how good the paint was all things considered!  :happy2:

Those headlights looked the shiz when you drove off!  :notworthy:

No auto setting on the headlight switch and the connector on the back is different to the Golf's, had a look on the BCM coding earlier and couldn't see anything that seamed related to the auto lights, there are settings for coming / leaving home.

Cheers Mate, after a proper wash and claying the paint didn't look as good, lots of fillers in their polish me thinks, but pleased how well it's come up after a quick going over  :happy2:
