    Hi

    First post.

    I've ordered a new 2017 white polo GTI manual last week from a dealership here in Melbourne.
    Still waiting for delivery from Queensland. Expect it to arrive next week.
    Looking forward to picking it up.

    Not looking at modify it any time soon as this is my daily driver and there's another car in the garage that I tinker with.

          Yeah love the Polo GTI. i have 2015 model and 6 speed manual. I aint that tall so this size fits me well. I just love the 320nm of torque you can definitely feel it.

          Wish mine came with 2 cigarette lighters though and electronic flipping side mirrors. lol

          done 16000km.

            That's great. I'm still waiting. Should arrive here in Melbourne some time this later in the week. I'll post a photo when it arrives.

                Had a phone call today. It has arrived but unsure when I can pick up. It will probably be Thursday the earliest due to working hours.

                Will probably take it to Philip island for a drive this weekend as I need to go there anyway.

                      Sport mode changes the shock absorber damping.
                      Does the 2015 have CarPlay?

                      Cheers

                            Still figuring out all this car has to offer.

                            The suspension is nice and firm in normal mode and even firmer in sports. Handles great and the motor is lively. I haven't really driven it that hard as yet as I am still running it in.

                            Infotainment system is great, and I love the sound system in this car. Sounds great.

                            I am glad I have choosen this little pocket rocket. The only problem I can for see, is keeping out of reach from the misses. She has her eye on it already.
