- VoomaWagen - | | The Polo 1,9 TDi Sportline conversion provides true hot hatch performance thanks to an SAC conversion, but without the fuel bills. | Following hot on the heels of SAC Engineering's highly successful Golf 4 TDiF development comes the giant-killing Polo TDi, an ultra-compact car which produces inexcess of 125 kW. | |  | | | If reasonable caution isn't exercised, wheelspin can be an issue, though the big 16-inch wheels and 205/50 tyres fitted to the development car help to restrict it to manageable levels. Independent testing at Gerotek reveal the car to be capable of sprinting to 100 km/h in 8,2 seconds, and managing a 218 km/h top speed! | The Sportline Polo is fast making a name for itself as the thinking man's hot hatch, and this conversion will certainly appeal to a broad cross section of owners who want exceptional performance coupled to miserly consumption, when driven appropriately. | The total cost of the conversion is R17 995, though the individual elements can be purchased separately. |  | | | | SAC Polo 1,9 TDi, versus standard Polo 1,9 TDi | | All tests conducted using a Racelogic VBOX GPS-based data acquisition system | | | SAC
