    What would be the first thing you would do to a 2001 Polo straight after you pick it up from the dealer?

      Sell it, and get a GTI!!!

      Seriously...Maybe look at lowering it, darkest legal window tint, and maybe a set of nice 16in or 17in mags for it. I like the look of them, and have often wondered how hard it would be to drop a 20v Turbo in one. By the way, what colour is it?

          Check that the compliance plate matches the vehicle

            is that the mk5 polo?

            if so, thats probably my favorite model polo so far.

            congrats on the purchase.

            work towards making it look something like this:

                Yeah, that's my favourite model polo too. I think that unless you do a conversion or serious engine work, it'll never be a rocket. I would focus on handling modifications, maybe some slightly bigger wheels with stickier tyres, sways and maybe even coilovers if you have enough money for them.

                Can you post pictures up please mate?

                  i agree, probably just some nice classy rims that fit nicely, tint, and maybe colour coding if need be done? depends on what you want from the car?

                    Problem with your lunch is as follows. Doesnt matter what you do performance wise they will get SFA power increase.

                    I would do suspension, wheels and car audio.

                    Make it a nice cruiser, it will never be a quarter mile stormer.

                    Congrats on the purchase.

                      Sell it!

                      haha, nah, I'd lower it, wheels and tint - then drive like a lunatic and people will just think it's fast

                        i dont know much about the 2001 polo, but could you not add a turbo for the equivalent price of suspension,tinting and wheels.or is the engine not up to the job?

                          Nice. Yes great shape huh? It already has the rims but no sitting as low.
