Cheers guys appreciate the comments! I'm certainly getting more interest from people. People apparently debating whether its a polo or a golf at work haha. They do look simular but I think the size of the polo suites the styling more!

Omg!! Love this car mate!! Xenons are a must! I'll have to keep my eyes open for one, think they are pretty rare with Xenons tho.

Veeeery nice! I may have to go down to VW tomo see if they got one I can look at :) they are so effing nice!

Lowered always looks better, but you lose the comfort side of things lol well i lost the comfort i had in the Boc when i lowered it

Yeah I guess you speak with experience with springs but because I've never done it before, my mind set is 'it looks good and probably handles better **ck ride quality' ha. I may regret it but it has to be done. Like you say, it sets any car off :).

Yeah it does look so much better. Maye ride quality might not have been lost as much if i went with coilovers, but i couldnt afford them at the time. It is worth doing tho, you'll love it more!

Cheers dale, yeah I think it'll happen but just need to find the money and the balls to do it haha.

And as for coilovers, can't see me been able to fork out all that. H&R springs for me! I'll get some pics with the SLR after its next wash. Phone camera pics never give anything justice!

Detailed her last night! Took 2 of us 4 hours so not to long for the finish we've achieved! Paint work was in good condition though, so we didn't feel the need to machine polish her. Basically just got rid of all tar and iron filings, cleaned the surface ready to apply the hi temp sealant/wax.

Here's an after pic in the dark

And the rest are the morning after:

Had her revo'd a week ago. Loving it really is a machine now! Got 30% off to at inters and a friend chipped in for my birthday so was a bargain for me!

Added some red GTI badges for front and back. What's peoples opinion on a revo sticker..... Either under the GTI at the rear, drivers side indicator, or on top of the drivers side headlight?

Yeah I am pretty tempted not bother with stickers, go stealth!

Might stick them on and see how it looks. I have a few jay from inters so should be reet thanks! I know I saw all your cars don't think

I don't think I actually saw you run :(. We were pre occupied as our old family car we sold a few months ago was there! 2004 S4 v8 running stage 2. My god we miss her! So we were chatting to the new owner! He's had a 60 time of 4.9 and had 170 out of her with more to go! Wow!

Def meet up soon need to see if we can feel a difference between Jabba and revo!
