I wasn't sure if my car was "retro" enough for you guys... VW Polo Mk3 G40 1991 112k....     The alloys are Compomotive CX1460's with Yokohama 185/50/14 A539 tyres.... All comments are welcome....good or bad,fire away. I think i've posted this in the wrong section...ooops! Could someone move this for me! |

Looks very clean. I was going to ask what the alloys were but then I scrolled down to the close up and saw 'Compmotive' on the rim. Then I scrolled further and you told us. ;D You'll probably get lots of suggestions as to what to do with it: slam it, widened steels, ATS cups etc. etc. I'd leave it alone, it looks great: real sleeper style. It's sitting nicely, low but practical and don't spoil it with a debadged grill. All these need really, is a brake upgrade and a visit to Jabbasport for some supercharger wizardry if you get power-hungry. Some street-legal pressed plates would suit it well: www.dubmeister.co.uk/newPlates.phpOr maybe a set of Steffans with a bit of tyre stretch if you take it to shows (keep those Compomotives either way!): www.dubmeister.co.uk/wheelinfo.php?make=Steffan&style=RS%20DesignOh, and did I say I like it!  |

2 a year didn't come in til R/S reg iirc retrowagen. It looks GREAT btw, and should fit in a right treat! Loving the compo's  Only thing is if you wanna show it at the gathering - you'll have to be on a club stand (or regional RR stand) to get in, though thats an organisational thing, not a discrimination thing  Imo - it's not the age, it's the attitude. There's no age or setup as a hard and fast rule on this board, so welcome |

Hi Brakeboy and WELCOME!
Don't worry about 'is it retro?'.....IT IS!
Tri is spot on about the attitude/age thing. The fact you found the site and joined is enough. You're gonna be glued to this site from now I can assure you. Friendly with a special vibe.
I think the car looks great and needs nothing....wheels & stance are perfect. Sure lowered cars look great, but yours looks great as it is. Add nothing, take nothing away....just roll & enjoy ;D
