But seriously, is it shorter? My wife's been complaining that mines too long and therefore a bit unwieldy during manouvres, but I don't want to take a hacksaw to my shaft unnecessarily. And should I do it myself or get a professional to do it?

Let's not descend into knob length comparisons!

should be safe, don't think bobdog or mariek inhabit the citigo pages :)

or the topic would decend even further into the gutter

Ordered mine in March, shipped last week and dealer said has arrived on shores today.

Was told it had arrived last week, went to collect and they realised mistake, gave me a Black SE model for a week as I brought my old one along to trade.

Throughly enjoying the car and looking forward to see all the differences on the Sport against my current model. Slightly concerned about the height though, had few close calls with the SE and the Sport is lower. Anyone had any issues with this?

Sport height is excactly the same as any other Citigo with "Green tech" / start-stop tech.. At least in Norway, all Citigo cars with this is lowered 15mm.

Hi. I like your wind deflectors.... are they VW Up or Heko?

What's the benefit? Stops rain getting in, with the windows open a bit?

Hi eikokusanzoku, there heko ones and they cost me around £30. They are very good to have if your going at high speeds an still want the window down without the loud noise or heavy draft.

Yeah the MTECS are a lot nicer indeed! Funny though as my left light has blown so i will need to get another one! If your interested in getting a roof rack Damo, i wouldnt get the OEM citigo one that i have as its the most un-aerodynamic roof rack ever! Sounds like a aeroplane is just above when you go over 50! Does look good though and im glad ive got it. ill try an upload a better pic later.

Nice aerial ;)

Not sure about the mudflaps, although they are there for a purpose and not just show

Interested to see the armrest fitted and your report on it

Ive got my TT clutch cap on (cheers charlie ;)) and just waiting on my brake and accelerator covers coming.

You did order the LHD Accelerator cover didn't you? Fits the Citigo a lot better than a RHD one

Yeah I feel the same about the mudflaps too. I've just ordered the exact ones from that site so I assume there red. How would this make it harder to fit? Yeah I'm looking forward to putting the armrest on as I had one in my vrs an I've missed it ever since I got rid of it! Damo could you give me a link for the interior light an number plate lights you've brought? They look really good but not sure what I'm looking for. Cheers

I meant the accelerator needs to be for a left hand drive TT to fit better lol

Read this, should explain it better

http://www.briskoda.net/forums/topic/284349-fitting-oem-vag-stainless-pedals-to-the-citigo-guide/

I'll pm you the links tonight when I get home, but basically any led sidelight bulb W5W for the number plate light and any 42mm led festoon bulb for the interior light
