my 6n lo

right this is how my car has progressed since i bought it back in febuary 07, its had quite a few changes, some good some bad!
let me know what you think.

this is how i bought it as standard back in feb, 1.6 8v, 1999 t-reg, one previous owner
was pretty much perfect condition apart from the dent in the rear bumper and the dodgy wing mirror :/


1st off debadge grill, clear indicators & side repeators & smoked rear lights, & bump strips off
all i really could do untill i passed my test


then i ordered some coilies which took 6 weeks to come!!

in the meantime while i waited i sourced some borbets, 14x8 on brand new 195/45/14... lovely
fitted my head unit aswel
i was going to debadge the rear but turns out the lady who owned it before debadged it herself [no idea why!] then decided to reaplly them... with super glue so to my surprise i had '1.6cl polo' written in crusty super glue which had penertrated down to the bare metal
so i sprayed em black & stuck them back on. will these smoothed off along with the vw badge & handle in the near future
dewiper aswel


once the coilies came they were fitted along with the wheels asap!
dropped 90mm on the front, 75mm on the rear :p





also got some euro spec 16v rears which looked alot better than the black smoked ones


later on i fitted some 16v seats, along with some 6n2 rears as i wasnt really liking the overall back end of the car
also fitted a clifford arrow 5 alarm & sub & amp



also dropped the fronts all the way down 100mm, & the rears 85mm
still doesnt scrub unless theres a fatty or a full car haha


one of the last shots untill some big plans with my wheels...


fitted a momo team steering wheel, 280mm which is nuts, car feels like a go-kart haha
they were in need of a big refurb as they were pretty bad from the previous owner, so my friend gary who owns a compressor & gun sorted me out



primed & prepped for the dishes...




white all done, next stage centres then laquer...


sorted :p


I'm loving the white dishes!

got a few pics after a good bloody polish before ed38









new wheels



superlites, 13x7 on 175/50s
fronts spaced out to et-16.5, rears et-7

too low tho :/ hitting cats eyes suuuuucks

& needs arch work haha

but looks the nuts :p down & out wheeey

managed to grab a 16v bumper (was a right bargain, only 20 quid!) and then dropped it at my uncles bodyshop
got it back the other weekend so went for a few photos with liam R
this is the result








these two were taken by liam, cheeeeeers man





so thats how it stands right now, well pleased with it so far, few bits like arches & rear bumper but they can wait till i get some more money! lol

let me know what you think

She's come a long way

Looking sweet

hahaha that does make me smile every time i look at that
cheers man

that is awesome mate i love it, bet those dishes are fun to keep clean tho... gotta say i prefer it on the t's than the superlites you need to properly sort the arches make them work. them shots are sick aswell. good choice on the 16v bumper.

love ll those wheels, i see the pic on the superlites on e38!

looks ace!

Really has come on...

Were the S/lights spacer'd out to those ETs? Because it's all about the tuck this time round baby! And they'd work really well with a bit of tuck!

they were 7j with an et of -7 so they were pretty pokey haha
but then the fronts were spaced even more to clear the calipers so they were made to et -16.5!
too much haha
i would ahve loved to keep them, get the dishes polished up then get some arch work
but i needed money to replace my tyres on the borbets

i might get some more 13s in the future but a bit more sensible next time round lol

cheers for the kind comments

Phat ride dude, has really come on, you must be proud of it.

Sweet polo mate =) just wondered what coilovers uve got on it?

mate thats rude

i love it! good pics too

wicked car! top job there mate

Very nice indeed, good to see progress pics as helps to see amount of work, time, and money that go into the cars!! i think you done some nice tasteful mods and have the stance to a T

best polo i've seen 4 a while , really love the cream rims!!!

yerr im well proud of it, my pride & joy
im runing the ta technix everyone gets off a guy called philj off club polo
budgetttt haha
there so cheap but at the end of the day im not tracking the thing, i just want to drop it on its arse so the ride quality etc doesnt bother me, aslong as i can get it low lol

cheers everyone for the kind comments
always a bit worried bout posting in on forums where its not jsut polos! lol
hard to contend with all the ill golfs & rads etc so its all good that people are taking a liking towards it

All dubs are good mate, don't get thinking we're all about the goof - in fact probably most of the nicest cars here aren't Golfs, and a few aren't even VW;





There's no Saxos or Corsas though

yeah the whole VAG stable is welcome here

wen we convey its like the wacky racers!!

heh, you said VAG. Which gives me an excuse to post this;

ha took me way too long to get that lol

what is DVA??

its says VAGINA!

oops HAHA that is actually brilliant!
