    Hi,
    Just wondering if anyone could tell me the model of this VW Polo if they know? Besides the alloys and tints is it modded? Is there a body kit on it? I'm looking into getting a Polo and this looks like a nice model to get.

    Thanks!

    Yep, The nose cone is an add-on, as are the side skirts, i assume there is a rear skirt, prob with exhaust chrome add-ons. It looks like there is a small spoiler on the back. The windows have been tinted, the alloys are not VW (i think), and there are low profile tyres on it.
    Don't think the suspension has been lowered, and i am not sure about the red lines. I think they are standard on the comfortline model :D

    Looks like it could be a modified Polo 1.6 GTi but could easily be a 1.0 base also.

    Hmmm, not sure if I'd bother with modding a car to be honest. How much would it cost? Polo Base, I kinda remember them not looking too bad:)

    It depends on what you would want done. Visual modifications such as body kits, alloys speakers and spoilers can run into a couple of thousand euros. Modifications to the engine, exhaust, suspension, etc can vary also. There are probably some lunatics out there who haves spent over €10k on modifing their cars.

    He has switched the indicator lenses to clear ones aswell, not available as standard on that car.

    The front bumper is stock but has a front lip. It is a 16v bumper.
    It is a mk4 polo and I think model/chassis code is 6n .

    lol, noticed that. i think im about to advertise my car in the mags and was having a browse through last night - i could not believe the amount of waaaay over the top pricing on some of them ! car modifying is not about a small business with a good turnover profit for putting a kit on your car :D
