cheers garner, i've heard about jom's and have been reading into coils first. trying to find some split rim bbs' in a 17 inch i think that would do? also im thinking of making everyting smooth, losing the rear window wiper and then a respray. induction kit and exhaust i think. i don't mind...

what on earth can i do to it. i want engine mods suspension and brakes and general looks i want like a DUB look before anyone says buy a bigger engined car i can't.

1.4 16v is a very fast car indeed http://www.parkers.co.uk/cars/reviews/facts-and-figures/volkswagen/polo/hatchback-1994/12284/

thats pretty much what i have in mind but just have to wait i geuss :)

not got the jetta anymore got the polo 1.2 tsi :D but im not to sure tbh probably about time i got in touch with them eh?

haha very true. well its a brand new car so i wont be doing anything to it for a while. however the engine on the car is amazing and would easily let me get out possibly 180 out of the car without changing the turbo and supercharger combo :)

anybody know of any mods i can make that will not effect the warranty. I have already bought some new panel air filters and i know it wont make too much of a difference but every little helps eh?

alriight so after my recent accident i thought its about time i bought a new car as i cant have my courtesy car for much longer so i have just bought a vw polo SEL 1.2 tsi 60 plate. Its just a lot of fun to drive :D Nimbus grey haha can't do anything to it im afraid untill the waranty is up but...

look at a polo with the 1.4 tsi thats got a turbo? or check out a pulsar gt turbo because a skyline is gonna **** you on insurance.

its going to cost you a fortune to add a turbo and a supercharger at a later date. just buy the car witha turbo because it is just a waste of money if you fit one on a non turbo car.

the engines are a bit weak. as jamafat said gaskets do go but thats only from bad tuners, and people who drive like jam rolls and at high milage they are brilliant looking cars though.

stilo's can look amazing when you know what your doing i saw a lovely one down the road from me but i think he kicked the old engine out and stuck in a brand new one. tbh i think that's probably your best bet.

Much rather buy a honda nsx, not a big fan of ferraris. prefer lambos or astons much prettier looking

I will indeed. Thanks for the help everyone!!

There was deffinatly rot under the passenger seat and the bumper, the arches wern't to bad but tbh im suprised it passed its mot. Ive joined the club g40 forums aswell as they have a lot of g40s for sale and what i can do to get the most out of it. fingers crossed eh

went and had a good look over, took it down to a family friends garage who looked it over there is quite a bit of rust on the arches and quite a bit just under the passanger seat don't really know how much it would set me back to fix it all. And the rear bumper was rotton lol. I'm looking around...

yeah i was in a&e till 4 in the morning which was lovely. They Xrayed my neck but couldnt see any breaks or fractures. Its quite bruised and a bit swollen. Thing is i really was lucky because i had just got the car back from VW as the seat belts weren't fitting properly and they had to sort...

i'll stick some photos up when i get home from work. its pretty bad i rolled it and smashed the front end into a farm gate. while on the side. was crazy scary and the other guy stopped and his insurance company is going to pay for it. i think i may be coming down with a "serious" case of...

wrote of the jetta lovely. country lane, dark night blinded by some idiots high beams and the fact he had his fog lights on for no reason. however got a nice 2.0 TDi 140 brake golf as my courtesy car its so very fast shame its not the 170 brake TDi gtd eh?

ive seen one haha, and its from a dealer down the road from me basicly he wants 1200 for it, its completly standard has nearly full service history so its like a blank canvas ready for me to go crazy. Has had 2 owners and im going down to see it in about 2 hours. so im going to grab it if i can...

standard, maybe a new turbo? exhaust system, would an induction kit go far on it?

thanks for the advice, i think the gt40 may be close to classic car insurance soon aswell. engine wise what would you recommend ?

Yeah just a few track days here and there, and the fact that my first car was a nissan micra.... and im wanting a nice nippy little hatch thats relativley cheap on insurance.

im really undecided. its either a polo gt40 a 106 rallye a polo 1.4 16v.

yay or nay?

pre 2000 which one would you prefer? and which one can i get more out of.

I get all day parking in a secure NCP car park in the centre of town due to my work. Its £2.00 for 24hrs not bad eh?

I once parked next to the curb and realized i had a nice half inch gap between my tyres and the curb. Brilliant i thought as i scraped the lovely rims on my jetta.

never friends, maybe my dad lol but thats it.

Dont really know where to start tbh. any help is much welcomed.

I love the colour of a nice crisp arctic white.

why not just buy a 106 rallye im sure you can pick one up for under 2k a good one for about 3k?

thanks for the warm welcome. At the moment the jetta is a company car so im not doing anything on that right now. Im thinking of getting maybe a 00-05 SEAT leon possibly the 1.8 FR just dropping it an 1"-1.5" just making it astheticly pleasing. However im drawn to the VW polo gt40 or the 106...
