    New GTI and first time VW Owner :) 08 Polo GTI Cup Edition

    Hey guys,

    Just wanted to share a couple of pics of my new (to me) GTI!










    I love it but I have one issue. About half the time when I turn the car on my front passenger window will wind itself down. Then I can't put it up for roughly 10 seconds. Also both passenger side window switches don't work whatsoever, but I can control them fine from the driver master control panel. Any thoughts?

    Welcome mate. Car looks awesome! Love the 4 doors and always been a fan of the cup body kit. I'm sure someone here will be able to give some assistance in regards to the issues your having

    Wowy - looks awesome. Mind if I ask what wheels you are running? - or are they stockys that come with the cup model?

    They suit it so well! I can't seem to find any of these anywhere - anyone know if a wheel that looks similar to this that will fit the pog? Need to get rid of the detroits (previous owner gutterered them everyday)

    I'd be stunned if there's any in australia.

    That's the first one I have seen in RHD. Was that an official NZ car or is it an import from Japan or something.

    You might have some bad wiring in the passenger door shut, that's a guess though.

    Its a Japanese import. I checked the connections in the door and the pins looked okay. Have just dropped it off at the dealer today to let them sort it out

    Yep - looks like not too many 17 aristo's were made though - seems like most were 18s (Golf r32 etc)

    Just wondering if theres a similar spokey wheel out there that would fit ours

    Hmmm. What about OZ Superleggera?

    EDIT: Or OZ Superturismo
