I miss the Polo Gti

[Petrina Polo]

Lol @ Kuro wheels looking "brilliant"

How is painting badges black or putting paint stripes on a car bodgy???

Gee, you are one to talk with your old junk VW..

Why would you paint badges black for? thats bodgy as. "Rice" even.

Also those who paint the bonnet black or put stripes on them, if you want a black bonnet buy a black car.

I dont do $20 mods (Paint black badges) because you cant afford proper stuff, go buy APR gear and do it properly. For gods sake

it sounds like his car was a machine but all of you's r bagging him out for nufin,
he spent his $ on quality parts and even got the inspection done before it was sold.. and wen springs r cut, you'l def feel it and would no where near look stock height.

relax abit

[Petrina Polo]

Is it lowered? Didn't see it on your list and didn't think Petrina had done any handling mods.

I didnt... Ask the new owner to post up his inspection report to bring his argument to dust.

Exactly.. Like I said post up the inspection report. the suspension was stock at time of sale.. APR has done all the mods at premium prices..

Looks like VW thunder has exposed himself as the spring hacker..

Troy hasnt said that you cut the springs. He has said that they had been cut. Accusing him of doing it is a bit rich. The car was low when he bought it from you.
Not long after troy got the car. He brought it around to show it off to me and we had a look at the springs. At that point it was my opinion that they had been cut. (jagged edge on the stock looking springs)

So. The only options are. VW supplied the car with the springs cut from the factory or a previous owner cut them. If you werent the first owner of the car then perhaps it was done without your knowledge.

Troy has had a few problems I dont think he said they were your fault. Its everyone else that seems to be giving you a hard time, not him.. So perhaps direct your abuse that way.

Dude, it's called tradition/history. It was how the first GTIs were delivered...

So if your about tradition, then install that big GTi badge too.. You wanna be half assed about tradition?

A 1.8T badge would be a ricey $20 mod would it not???

As said above, black badges were standard oem equipment on older GTI's.

Maybe the people who have extra paint wanted an individual look, who are you to tell people what colour car they should own?

Hey by saying the car had a few issues is very ambiguous and so supports others wishing to give me a hard time. If you say something be clear about it. The ambiguous nature of these supposed issues implies that I knew about them and delivered the car in a bad state. thats not the case..

1. Post up the inspection report
2. Describe these "issues"

If you want an older GTi, buy an older GTi..

If you buy a white car and then want it black? why not buy a black car in the first place?

Using your argument, if you wanted a car with a 1.8T badge on it, you should have bought an Audi A4/A3.

Maybe they wanted a zebra car (white and black) as VW does not do this paint scheme from the factory.

If you follow Troys thread about the car he has clearly stated that the performance of the car dropped off after he took delivery of it. Then he has gone through the process of diagnosing the problems. So once again.. The fact that you are having issues with other forum members should be a separate issue. I dont really have any interest in it to be honest. Just be careful what you say about Troy because youre talking trash.

I have nothing against troy or others on here.

But when troy says something ambiguous, it fuels others to have a go at me.

For instance, earlier complained that the boost was irregular. Later diagnosed to be a faulty APR dump pipe, where the welds had failed during his drive from sydney to Melbourne. This is an APR warranty issue and no way a fault of my own. I paid some $1300 for the dump pipe and cat to be right..

Again, before diagnosing the dump pipe to be the boosting problem, it was blamed on the industrial air tap fitted to the car. When open the industrial air tap capable of holding 150psi acts like a regular hose in its place. Cannot cause any issue to the car. I was condemned for this. We know it was the APR dump pipe being faulty, nothing to do with the air tap.. But the experts on here tried to blame that and made troy remove it.

Now the springs. Troy is agin shooting from the hip. I sold the car with stock suspension, the inspection report will confirm this. Why would I hack up the springs when you know ive spent the right $$$$ for the best mods on that car?????????????

Dude. I dont want to argue with you. But seriously Troy is just calling it as it is.
Here is a pic of your car from a thread that you started when you were selling your car whilst it was still in your posession



here is a pic of a polo gti at standard ride height



Continue to argue all you want. Youre either lying or stupid.

You put a Bunnings domestic grade pipe into your Polo.
