What would be the one thing you would change about the Polo?

Wider track with suspension akin Mk5 Golf plus 1.5 way LSD. This with existing weight of 1.1 tonne come give the MCS, Evo and Scubby something to think about...

IMHO, AWD is overrated when it comes to dry track and it's heavy, I might be wrong though

I think the GTI needs a light in the glovebox - you can reach down there & wave hello to the locals in China with how deep the thing is!

They could do with a light in the boot too, unless it was just the one I was driving that had it missing.

I think it was man...

The 08/09 models have a light on one side of the boot. It could do with a second light on the opposite side though.

Also,

The rear foglight needs to go & replaced with a second reverse light.......the way it is on the Polo is messed up - I want it as obvious as possible that i'm reversing & only having one reverse light doesn't fill me with much confidence that everyone back there knows what i'm doing...

i have to agree on that one. I don't know why they don't have reverse and fog on both. My last car (1989 e34 M5) had both. Now even with the Passat one side is fog and one side is reverse. Aside from it not being clear to others while you are reversing, it also gets quite hard to see when reversing in dark situations.

lol yeah, i'm not sure if it's a common thing with certain Euro car manufacturers, as they'd get more foggy days over there, but the reverse foglight isn't needed down here in Aus.

I wonder if it can be modified? I don't mean just with a change of colour of the light cover & globe, but also so that it's wired up properly to come on with the existing reverse light, (& hence rendering to rear foglight switch useless).
