On the road
Driving
Smooth ride, but a little low for drivers 6ft+. Engine is noisy for a 1.4 vw engine. Brakes are very dull as well.
Performance
60bhp in a heavy car is not a good combination. 0-60 in 13sec+ and power cuts out at 70mph

Living with it
Reliability
Clutch, pedalbox + loads of engine faults. Was not expecting this from a VW. The moment something is fixed something else goes wrong. Go for a honda or toyota.
Image
Bit of a girly car but fairly prestigeous compared to the other cars in its class.
Comfort
driving position is akward. Heater controls cause you to stretch quite far.
-
Security and Service
Security
No problems as of yet.
Service
All they care about is money. Guildford VW is flashy and shiny, but everything is double the price and twice the work.
