What have you done with your Polo so far (and today)

[BenT]

I tried to polish my 2015 GTI using a random orbital sander (with polishing pad attached of course) but it basically had no effect on swirl and water marks because the second I applied any pressure it would stop spinning.

Wrong tool for the job, so now I’m on the lookout for a dual-action polisher like they sell at Apex Customs. I’d be happy with a second hand one but i can’t find any.

here's my 6r TDI that i've had for a few weeks. Really happy with it so far

Only done a few things so far since picking it up:

oil change, replaced fuel filter + diesel purge, upgraded air filter, replaced cabin filter, installed aftermarket headunit and reverse camera in number plate light, painted front and rear vw badge and gave it a good wash today

Looks very tidy. Congrats on the purchase!
