This one on Pistonheads is nice:
Euro Polo


Nice lupo to be honest.
Don't understand why they've taken the plate off n put it in the window and left the plate recess there. surely it should be smoothed? lol

yeah that lupo is nice but way overpriced!

the wheels arent on because the offset is all wrong, which means i will need spacers which completely defeats the point of getting these wheels, as i wanted to tuck them into the arches! i have decided that i am now going to get some wide steels for the back and have it tucked at the front and poking with mad camber in the rear! now all i have to do is find those wheels! haha

That is awesome, too bad we don't have lupos over here.
You should paint the green parts of your bumpers flat white...or could you even mount beetle bumpers on? that would be bad ass

I have been talking to a mate of mine about his exhaust and he said i need to ask for a system from base of front pipe through to rear of vehicle made from t304 tubing, silencers X2 and configured to give a mild 'sport' note.

long life do it for £250 ish! anyone know of any better?

or does anyone fancy helping me make one! :D

PhilJ has started making custom stainless systems on clubpolo
Take your car to him and he will build it on the car lol. Unless he has a loop knocking about then he can make one around that and send it to you.

I'm getting a custom system done for the polo soon as I get the cash. he can do full cat back systems on the polo for around 250. And they look top to be honest.

That car is sweet. I would never think to do half the thing youve done to that. Got some ideas for my mini now.
