Welcome to the new look VWWatercooled

After much work and little sleep there is a new version of the forums running on more powerful and recent hardware as well as an upgraded software platform.

Things are mostly the same, but some things are a little different. We will be learning together, so please post questions (and answers if you've worked things out) in the help thread.

The new forum software is an upgraded version of what came before, it's mostly the same but also a little different. Hopefully easier to use and more stable than before. We are learning together here, so please be patient. If you have questions, please post them here. If you have worked something out and can provide an answer,

  • i love my wheel caps (running bora 15in stockies).

    for the longest time, i had the discs/caps off, for whatever reason i dont know. put them back on the other day, and it makes my car look SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO unbelievably stock that it's not funny.

    it'll compliment my "too slow? too bad" sticker on the tailgate quite nicely.

      • I love the amount of haters! Clearly they've never driven a Polo, hands down a better all round car than my 2003 WRX! I love, even how stock it drives through the twisties!

        • I discovered, quite by accident (well almost anyway) how quickly this darn GTI accelerates. Entering into traffic I needed to accelerate up to the same speed... well... I did it... in FIRST!! Just wow, and I'm a little scared. How hard will this thing go if really pushed... I've never driven a four cylinder that just keeps on accelerating so hard for so long. Damn impressive

            Maybe it's been flashed?

              • My Daughters boyfriend says

                So he drives a Honda Civic...

                his has replacement headers, new full exhaust system and a milo tin for an exhaust tip... the Polo GTI sounds better

                his has replacement headers, new full exhaust system and replacement "intakes"... the Polo GTI is faster

                his has new wheels and low profile tyres... the Polo GTI looks better



                and these are his words, not mine
