Nice colour combo you got there And welcome! Sorry to hear the court case went south for you, but glad it hasn't stopped you from seeing these are great little cars with heaps of potential
I think it's time to formally introduce myself and my baby - my 2006 Candy White Polo GTI.

Sadly, we first met on bad terms after she was sold to without it being disclosed that she had been injured in one of melbourne's hail storms, even after taking the seller to court and losing my case it's hard to stay mad at her! So I'm on a mission really to get all of the hail out give the old girl the life she deserves...so here we go!

Set of fully refurbed and powder-coated BBS RS771's (16x6.5 5x100 ET42) imported from europe, I don't think there are any in Aus yet, maybe one or two but yeah, they're pretty rare. And they'll look like this when I get round to fitting them...

Ha Ha,
As for suspension have a look at Performance 3000 on ebay UK
I got a set of FK AK Coilovers landed for $430 and they're wotrking a treat
Done 10,000 kms so far and (touch wood) they have had no problems

Cheers man.
Well I guess that saves me a little bit more money to put towards other bits and bobs haha.
And Smead - yeah I wasn't sure what to do about suspension, was going to go with KW but I think it's a bit overkill, then saw you can get H+R 35mm springs for about $225 so was thinking about those. I actually wish I'd taken those eibachs off you a couple of months back, but I genuinely had no idea what was happening with the car with the court case etc.

Nice
Those wheels look sweet, I want a set lol
I would say with a set of those wheels you will want the car to have a good stance
Go Coilovers for sure
MODS- TOO MANY
