2006 stock GTI. Red colour.

Looks like I'm not getting this one now. REVS check showed that it was written off for fire damaged. Nice of the seller not to mention that to me.

Oh well, back to Carsales.com.

Good Choice.

I bought a 2006 red one, less than 10K Kms for $20K less than 2 months ago.

[teamshaw]

Picked up the car today.

Ended up getting a 07 Black Pearl Polo GTI, 45,000k's. Got it for $18,000.

Really happy with it so far, can't wait to drive it back to Canberra tomorrow.

Picked up my 06 Red Polo GTi last night, 30,000 kays, leather package $22k.

Im in love! Teamshaw was the one you saw in Sydney a red one in Cecil Hills? I went and that one and the guy was DODGY AS, wouldnt let us look under the bonnet, wouldnt let us test drive it even. Ran a REVS on it and walked away. He was such a tool.

I hardly ever wake up early on weekends, but the last couple of days (after picking up my GTI on Friday), I was awaken early in giddy excitement, eager to get my new baby on the road - a morning cruise down Williamstown way following a clear, beautiful sunrise started my Sunday off nicely.

haha, yeah I did that too. first weekend with mine I was up at sunrise, 200kms of backroads before 9am thoroughly enjoyable punt through Mt Tamborine before the tourists awoke.

[teamshaw]

Hahaha, yeah it was the one in Cecil Hills, very dodgy. You got the one from Lee in Manly I presume? It was a very hard decision between that one and the one I ended up getting.

There are a few of us Canberrans on here now, I'm thinking we should set up a meet or something maybe.

[noone]

Lee in Manly was still selling his? I was going to see that one before I bought mine (over 6 weeks ago).

either if yours came with any mods?

Planning on any tweaking?

Congrats to the new Polo owners!

[teamshaw]

Yeah Lee's was still for sale a few weeks back when I picked up mine. Mine stock standard, planning a chip in the next few months, other than that probably not much.

[Bluey9N]

I wanted a cleaner one then Lee's, it had too many stone chips and dints for my taste. I ended up picking up one in Canberra privately, after tripping to Sydney the last 3 weekends :p I wanted the Silver one in paddington but it sold 10 mins before I rang back to say i'd take it.

No mods planned for mine as its on a salary package. Maybe after the lease is up and I buy it out....

Wouldnt mind a meet up

Hey

I picked up my Polo (Gti, 2006) on Saturday.

Have only racked up about 100ks thus far but it is one SWEET car.

Planning on taking it for a big run this weekend so I can get some serious wheel time.

[teamshaw]

Nice, welcome to the forums. What colour/price etc did you get?

Hey congrats! With only 100km, then you've got an MY08 build like me then.


Got any photos?

Have fun.

Hey

Thanks for the welcome!

Its a 07 upgrade (decemberr 2006 plated) car in silver.

Had 9.9k on the clock when I got it (has just ticked over 10k now).

Picked is up from John Newell Mazda in Waterloo for a reasonable price.
