  1. Ah, didn't see that one. Yep, definately me again.
  2. Nah, I work in the town centre and there's no parking at the office so I use Strykers and walk up.
  3. Fairly sure you can drive it to a proper garage for repair work as needed to get it past an MOT. Can't drive it down to your mate's to fix it on his driveway though.
  4. I was going to say it might have been me. But mine doesn't smoke and I definately didn't flash at anyone!
  5. You have to stick a relay into the wiring for it so that the doors don't pop open again once the engine shuts off, but it does negate the Thatcham rating. Don't ask me where the relay goes though!!
  6. 12v into passenger side with nothing cmoing out - 1 shot ballast. Replaced. 0.28v into drivers side. Replaced the ballast to be sure. Missed a tiny break in the wire several time before I found it. 2 new bulbs, 2 new ballasts, £120 and 5 hours later I have 2 working headlights again!
  7. This is why I hate electrics! HID conversion for low beam (side lights and full beam are standard halogen). Passenger side bulb had been a bit iffy over the past few weeks and worked when it wanted to, which I just put down to a dubious connection somewhere along the line. Eventually it gave up and I assumed the bulb had gone. The drivers side then followed suit at the weekend, so I replaced the pair tonight with identical bulbs (H3/9005 6000K - http://www.hids4u.co.uk/Replacement-...sion-Kits.html) Anyway, neither light up. Continuity tester showed some life in the passenger side, but nothing in the driver side. Power is getting to the ballast fine, but only the one that was/is dodgy seems to give anything out again. I'm assuming that the ballasts are shot, but both of them at the same time is a little odd? Espicially considering the one that seems to put power out is the one that was/is dodgy? Fuses are all fine, bulbs are correct.
  8. I got one from the forums (either this one or TGTT, can't remember!) off someone who was breaking a car.. £30 delivered.
  9. They were just starting up when I kinda left the polo scene by way of an Audi A3. Not heard anything bad about them though
  10. Owned 3 (mk3 1ltr, mk3 GT, mk6 TDi Sport). Never had an issue with any of them. Rock on. Also have a look at club-polo.co.uk and uk-polos.net Loads of die hard enthusiats and some good information to be had
  11. Was it you? Looks smart :-)
