I miss the Polo Gti

Hope all of this is directed at Petrina and not my car lol

It is a great little car with quite a few mods done now
and only had 25K on the clock

After some suspension and wheels it will almost be complete

Nah it's not aimed at you. I'm sure people here are sympathising with you for being on the rough end of the deal.

What's it going to cost you to get the damaged parts replaced you reckon, vwthunder?

No way man. We are getting into Petrina for the gaul he had to sell you a car with so many dodgy mods and then have the hide to complain about the car itself.
I personally feel sorry that you had this happen to you. Its a huge lack of integrity on Petrina's part, and something that has bitten him hard in the bum.

Oh yeah it's aimed squarely at Petrina. I feel for you, the fact that he whinged and moaned about his car yet perhaps he didn't spend the money right to mod is properly. I imagine he's regretting coming back to post

I like where this thread is going.

[noone]

Geez it wa sa neat car, had a great Stereo in it, excellent power and handling, looked so good with its 18 inch Kuro Intake rims.

Whinging that my car handles like crap and that it is slow, and wondering why...Check

Interesting that Petrina thought the stock setup or cut springs gave excellent handling. I was not a big fan of the handling until I had a sway on it and the traction on uneven corners was pretty dismal under acceleration, but i was always planing on spending some money in this area. Those rims were a waste IMO, Petrina was trying to offload them on here the week after he go them.

Did you install the Lip yourself or did someone do it for you? Still need to get mine on (assuming it wont mean scraping over every speed-bump).

My front lip doesn't scrape (anymore than the front already did), if you do it yourself make sure you have a helper to lend you a hand if you remove the bumper to install - like I did - and allow about 3 hours. I've got the .pdfs of the bumper, etc removal if you want a copy.

I am not really fussed by cut springs as I would have changed the suspension anyway

I got a good deal with the car in the end, cant go wrong with the APR tune, Full exhaust and Forge intercooler

That is about 5K of mods basically for free

Car is running well after I got a few bugs sorted out

[Petrina Polo]

Hi,

The car was not lowered by me at all. I bought it with 6000km and 6months old from a friend and it was completely stock. Cut springs? Thats ridiculous.

Ive spent thousands on APR gear, forge FMIC, full stainless exhaust system, autometer boost gauges and your saying for a few hundred id skimp on Springs? The car had stock suspension whilst I owned it. If I wanted springs I would buy them. lol

The new owner also had a independant person check the car for a good 2 hours (like NRMA inspection) he would concur the car was in perfect condition and had stock suspension. He drove the car, jacked it up, checked every little button and lever. He said it was just beautiful.. Why didnt he say it had cut springs if this was the case?

Why not post up the report of the independant inspection? Someone is telling porkies. I dont mind a bit of fun but why have a go at Petrina for?

I had the brilliant looking Kuro intake wheels on the car as well and you decided against them for only $800 more???. You stretched yourself to buy the car and I suspect you may have taken to the springs with a grinder. All Im saying is that any mod on that car was done spending the proper money for the proper mods.

If anyone here is bodgy its many of you, painting badges black, your turbos bolts falling off, putting stupid stripes on your cars, making your own dump pipes, intercooler kits? For gods sake do something properly.

Lol @ Kuro wheels looking "brilliant"

How is painting badges black or putting paint stripes on a car bodgy???

What bugs? The car was perfect when I sold it to you. The dump pipe as you say cracked on the WELD but its a APR warranty issue, no fault of mine.

Also if your not fussed by cut springs I suggest you may have cut them.. Post up the inspection report. Like I said I dont mind a bit of banter but come on, like you said I spent $5k on mods easy and you accuse me of cuttin springs..
