Volkswagen Polo Classic 1.4

I bought this car 2 years ago on a 98 (s) plate with approx 55000 miles on the clock for £2950 which is a very good price granted but make sure you shop around, there's cheap deals all over the place. ADVANTAGES - This really is a great first car to buy... i bought the 5 door hatchback model which is great for getting your mates in instead of having to fiddle about with seats on the 3 door models.... Fuel consumption is pretty decent too ( i get ...
...conversion kit is installed then it will obviously be cheaper and the system will pay for itself in about 16 months...... The colour range is good also with a range of extras which isnt that common with this class of car..... Parts are gererally pretty reasonable also and servicing is cheap too. DISADVANTAGES - The car is pretty sound all in all however i do experience a certain degree of roll when going round corners or roundabouts. ( more than ...

Review of Volkswagen Polo Classic 1.4

There are many 'pro's' for having a second hand Polo. For starters the 1.4 engine, combined with the light chassis really does shift when you put your foot down. It handles the road really well. I would say that the interior is of a high standard and is well-built. Apart from being cheap to tax, it is in insurance group 5, namely ideal for a first car. The mpg is roughly 42.8 combined. I'm 6 ft 4 and theres plently of room for me in the front and ...
...in general have excellent resale value - Whatcar? states that this car in it's current condition is valued at £1865 if sold privately. I'm happy because I bought it for £1500 : ) Every service that the cars had has been done professionally by Volkswagen, and I can say that my experience has been exceptional. The only con's for my Polo are added extras, i.e. central locking, electric windows, and power steering. However, as the car is so light, I ...

Review of Volkswagen Polo Classic 1.4

In the following opinion I am going to give a full description of the VW Polo classic 1.4. Because this is the car that my wife drives and I can tell you everything. When we first got in we thought, what a comfortable car this is, we tuned the radio, put it up full blast and drove. The tank was full with petrol, we got as far as Birmingham and discovered that the petrol had hardly gone down at all. It had very effective steering, no air conditioning, ...
...radio player. The seats were very comfortable and it gave it a very smooth ride. There were, as usual Some VW faults though. The main problem was that the glove compartment rattled very slightly when the engine was running. This did not really effect our VW experience though. When I tried to get our suitcases in the boot, I found that I could do it with the greatest of ease. There was a nice flat boot and no lip which you find occasionally in car ...

Review of Volkswagen Polo Classic 1.4

This is a great car for any first-time driver. My Polo 1.4 is S-reg (99) and is silver. It's such an easy car to drive - i have driven a lot of my friends cars (Ford KA, Renault Clio, Peugot 206, Vauxhall Corsa), and this is by far the easiest, the most fun and the best value for money! It has a nice interior (leather dashboard/steering wheel) and is a good-looking car! The car (second hand) is normally available for about £4000 and is well worth ...
