***The official my polo arrives thread***

[Nader]

Hi all

Went and test drove a bright red 9n GTi this arvo, with every intention of buying it. Waiting for my mechanic to look it over tomorrow morning, and if all goes well, I'll be driving it by the weekend


Cheers,
Nader.

My girlfriends 2009 Polo TDI will arrive this week! Hopefully any performance mods for the Polo will have a flow on effect to my 1.6TD Golf.........

How come it's taken so long?
I thought it was a 2ndhand car from a VW (Sth Yarra?) dealer.

Don't get it chipped unless you want to her blow away the Golf

It was one of the cars you recommended Kaanage, thanks mate! We got it with a novated lease - took some time.....

THe car is great. Mint condition in every way and wonderful to drive. I love it! We're still figuring out how everything works, its a bit of a technological leap for us. One problem is that everyone at work says "why didnt you get a falcon/commodore"? Too many reasons....

SO chipping will make a big difference? I was thinking that long term it would get some mild upgrades. I think i'd stop short of replacing the turbo though. The Mk1 on the other hand, well I suspect that it will be quite fast ultimately. DOnt know if our Red Pog will be tuned to the same degree.

Glad to hear that I was of some help
If you want to check the difference between remaps vs stock, we can meet up and you can try my car vs your girlfriend's - just PM me.
I have 3 different remaps if you really want to see what sort of variation in performance you can have in an otherwise stock engine.
