***The official my polo arrives thread***

[99gti]

In an attempt to try to keep these spaces clean and in a manageable order, please post here on this sticky if you are bursting at the seams to tell the world your about to take delivery of your new polo.

The aim of this thread is to try and keep together some of the more commonly asked questions and answers for reference for our newer members.

So tell us what your getting, when your getting it and why you chose it over other cars.

Happy dubbin!

This is a good idea. It was getting a little messy back there.



WHAT: 2008 Polo GTI (Black, Sunroof, Cloth)

WHEN: Sometime next week I should have my baby. I'm seriously going to explode if I don't have it by then.

WHY: Came from a 1996 Lancer. Since 2004, I've always wanted a Golf GTI. When the time came for a new car, I checked out the Golf GTI but it was out of my price range. I loved my Lancer, never had a problem and it. So I figure, if I'm happy with it, why change? Started looking at getting the new 2008 Lancer VRX. I was pretty much sold on it, only I wasn't really happy with the size. It's much larger than my 96 one and for my needs, I just didn't need anything that big.

Told a mate of mine the order of things as stated above and he said, "What about a Polo GTI?" -- I'm like, what the heck is a Polo? Seriously, until a couple of months ago, I had no idea. So I check it out and soon discover that everything I loved about the Golf GTI is basically what I want in a Polo GTI. Price difference between the Lancer VRX and Polo GTI was minimal.

You know when you've got that idea in your head. "Someday, I'll own my dream car." For me, that was the Golf GTI. But until I discovered the Polo GTI, I had no idea that that day would be sometime next week!!! That's why I'm so out of my mind excited about it.

Howdy everyone, I've been lurking on this forum for sometime now. I've learnt so much from all the useful info posted about the polo gti.

WHAT: 2007 polo gti (red, 16000k, cloth)

WHEN: about a week ago

WHY: up to about 3 months ago i didn't even know what a polo gti was, until
i did some research about the next car that i was going to buy. The
polo gti was just in the right price range and it also had alot of
modding potential.

Needless to say I'm so ecstatic about my baby.
Within the last week I've already had the APR flash and upgraded her shoe size to 18's. Wow the APR flash certainly does live up to its' hype . I'm still finding it hard to wipe the grin off my face.

Hopefully I'll have some pics of baby up soon.

A polo on 18's! I'd like to see that

The 18's look great.
