This is what I mean about the front end pic. You CAN see it but it is very subtle.



Close up on same pic

Looks great John, nice little touch.  I could never decide on the silver carbon but the subtle touches on the Polo look ace  :smiley:

Cheers Mike. :smiley:

You'll soon be over in Blighty, so come over and talk shop sometime. :happy2:

Should give you a good excuse for a blast over in your red rocket.

Driven carefully up the maidstone to nottingham I managed 51mpg. (It did include a 20 mile stretch of 50mph contraflow on the m1 though)?

Even driven hard they don't drop that low.  A 50 mile return journey from leicester to rockingham, and a whole day on track and i was mid 20'smpg iirc.  Awesome economy for the performance

Yep, on the Polo GTI's 10 gallon tank I have had 440 miles out of it.  :happy2: The hills around here knock the mileage down though! :sad1:

But it does make it fun driving on them  :evilgrin: :driver:

Okay, a couple of pics..

1st one is a daylight pic of how the car looks now.


2nd one is the look I'm going for on the front end - suitably mean and moody look  :scared:
