Well done Zoe!! Looks nice, My sister has a 6n polo on a 51 plate, hers is the one with the scallop in the bonnet for the VW badge. I think there are parts that are interchangeable, and she might have a few odds and sods lying about. I will be seeing her tomorrow so I will see what she has. Matt Th...

Re: 15s on a B3?

195/55... so they'll be about 7% out if I kept 195/45

They're these wheels...

Sorry wheels not very clear on the pic...

I'll sell them to the guy who's buying the car if the price is right

Thanks everyone for your quick replies :D

15s on a B3?

I'm thinking of keeping the Wheels off my Polo which are 15x6.5
The only problem is the tyre size is currently 195/45/15... and they have hardly been used...

My questions are...
What size tyres would I need on these 15s for the B3?
And is 15" an ok size... pics?

Re: B3 Oil leakage

Thanks. I'll take a look... need to check it is definately a damaged sump.
Hopefully this guy is coming for the Polo this weekend... which should free up space in the back garden... also my 924 is hogging the ramps because it's a big pile of poo...

Cheers everyone for your help :grin:

Re: B3 Oil leakage

It's definately engine oil. It wasn't so much a 'rock of the engine' more a 'I've just hit a big pot hole' feeling :?
