mickster Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 Lol at the colour showdown. I love my black GTI but reckon they photograph the worst! Lots of the angles and curves are lost in the darkness, although in person I do prefer them to silver. Each to their own though, I've not seen a GTI look bad in any colour as of yet...

mk2 Posted July 8, 2020 Report Share Posted July 8, 2020 I have a black and a silver Lupo. I don't like the colour of either. It's why I was thinking of doing a holo metal flake on the black one to make it more interesting. Doing a holo metal flake on a black 9N Polo instead presently... š Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y2ACP Posted September 10, 2020 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 Service due soon I'm thinking of useing bosch super 4spark plugs.What plug and gap size gti owners useing.? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skajme Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) I'm sure i've seen on here somewhere that Bosch spark plugs don't play nice with the GTI and to use NGK ones. I'm not sure if that's still the case though I can't see why it would have changed! Edited September 10, 2020 by Skajme Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LR5V Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 (edited) Wow that is a clean beam - thought you were going to say it had been powder coated.

mk2 Posted September 10, 2020 Report Share Posted September 10, 2020 LMAO! šš¤£š He got banned from club Polo a while back... But that said, this forum wouldn't be the same without @Rich. @dannoĀ and @mscherryvioletĀ used to liven things up, but they've moved onto bigger wheels. I've given up with the other forums too. They've either gone super nerdy or really thick. The US vdub forums are still a good read though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted September 11, 2020 Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 Bloody club polo. TT forum is a thing but nobody responds. I still have a Lupo, as does Danno. Danno has two. Ā Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
danno Posted September 12, 2020 Report Share Posted September 12, 2020 @mk2Ā no bigger wheels here. I still love the Lupo for some reason. TDIĀ outside is due mot next week, SDI might have its first mot in a couple of years before the year is out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ā Just looked this one up. Might even have a pic of its orignal plate. Its a 05 plate sunroof car which is very rare (i should know i have one). Been keeping track of these to help with with my car. There is one up for sale with sunroof, ac and side air bags. Also on a 05 but more mileage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
