What do you love about your Polo?

[Bboy_Sparx]

I doubt it! =P..

Everyone is like. i like your golf.

and i am like... IT'S A POLO!

That's when you just keep quiet, and take it as a compliment that people think you spent more money than you actually did

When i drive the GFs black Polo GTI, I get it too... and I just suck it in. LOL

I get the whole Golf/Polo thing all the time too


My work mate says it all the time.
Maybe i should start calling his skyline a pulsar? and his front mount a bar fridge...

[Bboy_Sparx]

Just call it a whale, coz they're heavy and slow...

[mitch_gti]

Im constantly surprised by the pace APR has given the Polo.

Not much can keep up with it !!!



I only let myself drive it once a week or so. The other night i gave it a bubble bath, a gold class wax. Today in anticipation i waxed it AGAIN.

Picking up the new (hopefully) girlie tonight

Get those heated seats working FTS (for the score)

Let's be fair here - the vast majority of GTIs on the road are Golfs. Golf V GTIs outnumber 9N3 GTIs by at least 10 to 1, from the examples I see on the road.

On the rear hatch - there's a VW logo, and "GTI". Nowhere on either the Golf or the Polo are the words 'Polo' or 'Golf' displayed. Especially now that there's a 3 door Golf V GTI out, can you really blame a non-enthusiast who likes his or her cars for not picking their Polos from their Golfs?

I can bet that the same confusion also pervades the XR4 Fiesta and the XR5 Focus. And at a short glance, I'll be damned if I can tell an STi from a normal WRX...

The big wing is a dead give away

Some non-STi WRXs sport the big wing too, though. The easiest way to tell is the larger-than-normal bonnet scoop and/or if you get a good look at the front, the covers over the fogs.

Another way to pick an STI is to watch the car jiggle on it's suspension when it runs over anything thicker than an 80gsm sheet of paper.

^^^ sounds like my lowered GTI

Apart from having my jumper she had heated seats too.

What I don't love:
1) Tiny, inaccurate speedo. The from as low as 80kph it gets even worse with the 2x scaling.

2) Indicator stalk on the wrong side. Bloody Euro conversion gone wrong. I'm often missing indicating because of this, when needing to swap gears at the same time. The only right side for the indicator stalk is the one not occupied by your gear changing hand.
