    The new addition looks very tidy, Maris ... and those rims suit it well.

    The wheels look a bit small to me, like a shopping trolly. However, I'm sure any of the current model will fit. 15" would be nice.

    Hopefully the Mk III will be active with my son. Of course I'll still have an interest in Mk IIIs.

    Nice addition to the Polo's that are slowly but gradually increasing in number. My mate's ordered his Polo GTI yesterday and is hopefully getting prior to xmas.

    Minor mods such as a Whiteline RSB should help the car with decreased body-roll and less understeer, which I'm sure is a desireable effect when driving any vehicle (which I'm sure the mrs will agree to when you explain it to her and tries it before and after it's on).

    Going on the topic of audio - there is only a 4 speaker system running in the car. There are the two tweeters mounted on your A pillar and your mid-range drivers which are located in your doors. The rears are surprisingly blanks with no line out for speakers. Thus if you were serious about sound then you'd have to re-route your own speaker cables in.

    I know this because I've fully modified my 9n3's audio equipment, and also had to work on a 9n2 with less minor audio modifications. However, it wouldnt actually be difficult to run a 5.1 system if you were game and that's IF the mrs will let you anywhere near the car with the intention of pulling it apart

    Took some pics when we went in to sign the papers.






    Tyres are the same size as the Golf III. I think I have about a year to make up my mind if I put 15" on.
