that looks like a GTI or R from the back.  :rolleyes:

Yes from behind in real life and in the dark it does.

There was one in front of me the other day and I had to race in front juts to see what it was.

In fact I think the new Polo looks the same as the Golf from certain angles head on when it is on the road.


Well I dont know about you or anyone else, but I can tell the difference between 2 set of LED lights on either side of the car (GTI/R) over 1 set on either side on this. Plus the fact they are feckin huge, almost the size of the back window height.


GTI mk6, 3dr Manual (Yes Manual! If I wanted a Taxi I'd hail one, not spend £1500 on one), Candy White, Full Leather, Xenons, ACC, 18", RCD510 + Dynaudio, DAB Radio, Winter Pack, Luxury Pack, Fiscon Bluetooth Plus, Golf R LED's.

On a screen it is chalk and cheese. 200 yards in front of you in the dark is another matter.

Any doubts you may be having over these lights must surely be dispelled when you see this. You can tell they are designed and manufactured by the same people that did the GTI lights (Hella). Hell, they even look good on red :laugh:

In the dark I'll see 2 sets 2 of lights on either side, with this I'll see 1 set. It's not hard to tell, honestly.

The only Red for the GTi in the UK is Tornado Red. :smug:
My signature is perfectly clear for the forum members who live in this country. :smug:
You could improve your signature radically, but then you are a pig-headed Frenchman :tongue:

Does the polo GTI even have LED rear lights as the regular polo just has bulbs in them lights and the L shape just does not look right with bulbs. :sad:
