Economy
Value
Like all VWs, quite expensive.
Costs
Parts can be VERY expensive for this model. Watch out for main dealers over-charging. Insurance is very high.

On the road
Driving
Great car to drive. Handles well. Instant power all the time.
Performance
Excellent. Watch people's faces as you overtake bigger cars in a Polo... priceless.

Living with it
Reliability
Good, apart from when it goes wrong it can be very pricey. Needs a lot of looking after and regular services.
Image
Looks like a normal Polo with wide arches and alloy wheels... wolf in sheep's clothing.
Comfort
Not bad. Seats are decent, but interior is very basic.
-
Security and Service
Security
Definitetly needs an alarm fitting, as standard shockingly easy to break into.
Service
Staff are helpful, but nearly all the mechanics have never seen one. Main dealers don't have hardly any knowledge on the car!
