Hello.

My name is Luke and I own a 2009 Polo GTI.

I've been lurking these forums for a few years. I finally built up the courage to create an account so that I could ask some questions about potential upgrades to my Polo.

Welcome. Check out the relevant polo section and ask away.

let us know ur opinions on the car im keen to know.

After researching hot hatches for around 3 months I ended up going for the Polo GTI for 2 major reasons;
1. The cost of a 2009 Golf GTI was about $10k more and
2. After driving a Renault Clio I realised that German engineering is not a joke, it really makes a difference

My opinion after owning the Polo for around 18 months is very clear. Value for money... With a simple APR stage 1 tune and some decent tires I get a lot of acceleration for under $18k.

We now own a Golf Wagon TDI because my wife was jealous of my Pog's quality in workmanship.
