Volkswagen Polo Match 1.4 TDi 2009

Great looking little car with 15 inch alloys and colour coded bumpers. The car comes with all the toys and a comfortable driving position. One problem I have found with the 5 door is that being 6ft 3 the centre pillar can dig into your shoulder. On the road the car handles really well and the ride is as good a car from the next class up and is very refined. The 1.4, 3 cylinder diesel which puts out 70bhp is never going to set your pants on fire but is very torquey and pulls like a train from nothing. The car will cruise all day at 80mph on the motorway at just under 3000rpm and still give you nearly 50mpg! Overall, a great little car and after 13,000 miles since bought new in February it has proved very reliable. The only problems we’ve had are the seatbelt not retuning properly and a intermitant fault wih the cd multichanger making a noise like a helicopter.

Volkswagen Polo Match Silver 1.4 MPI 2001

Excellent car, looks more classy than the other lower class cars such as Corsa etc. Plush car for a cheap price, absolutely fabulous. German cars are the best and I don’t know why people buy Renualt Clio / Vauxhall Corsa / Fiat Punto’s etc - they are just cheap compared to the Polo.

Volkswagen Polo Twist 2004

I really loved my car until it started giving me problems and only got rid of it recently. I think VW’s servicing and maintenance is too expensive. I had a warning light come on and they said I would need a new EGR and Cat replaced which would cost £900 with my discount. I thought if I do get any more problems it was going to be expensive. Also the VW garage I went too are not very helpful at all and I had to make a complaint in the end. I would only recommend getting a VW if you can afford the servicing as mine would cost in circa £300 to £400 a time. I would go for a Golf not a Polo.

Volkswagen Polo 1.2 60 E 2006

Never lets me down, nice to drive, comfortable for driver and passengers, good boot which becomes masive with the back seats are folded down, cheap to run - can’t really ask for much more from a car can you?

Volkswagen Polo Saloon 1996

This does soak up the bumps and pot holes in the road surprisingly well, I found this car to be remarkable on fuel and cheap to insure but the handling is the only point of the car that lets it down but otherwise is a good all round car.

Volkswagen Polo 1.4SE 2006

Good all round machine; visibility "over shoulder" could be better. Unfortunately, developed cylinder head problems at 15,000 miles (running on three cylinders only). Solid, reliable & dependable but exudes no character when driven! Quite a bland motor.

Volkswagen Polo 2002

Although this is my second polo, i have decided it will be my last, with common engine problems, i would recommend the old model any day but not this one.
