i raced a few 106 gti's in my polo gti ,,, the 106's were modded with cams and filters and mine was standard and tbh they dont gain that much
106's just feel alot faster but they aint that quick
polo gti anyday of the week better build quailty and more reliable and you wont lose as much money
also think a polos a bit safer when you crash but just personal experance lol

i might have got lucky and got a bigger bhp polo, if u ask on uk-polos.net they will back me up on this . . . polos arnt ment to but they sometimes come with diff bhp's, a guy had his rolling roaded and it came out at only 105bhp and one guy had his rolling roaded and it came out at 138bhp standard, they r ment to be 125bhp...so who knows

rolling roads over and underread all the time mate, you can never take what they say as gospel
even if you did have 138bhp (which i doubt) compare that to 160 bhp and 920kgs for a tb'd 106

correction 120bhp vs 125bhp ... and if i remeber rightly the polo has lots more torque??
