    Good way to get a cheap VW TDI engine cheaply.

    Costs

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Very good value, but essentially a Mk4 Polo estate.

  • On the road

    Driving

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Drives superbly. Essentially a Mk4 Polo with stiffer suspension.

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    90bhp - is ok, but the 110 would be better! - Very nice on motorway.

  • Living with it

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Small niggles with trim. Nothing faulty yet.

    Comfort

    4 out of 5 4.0

    A relaxed motorway cruiser, but good around town also.
