VW Fox

Advantages: Nippy, fun, easy to park, cheap

Background I was lucky enough to have my 1.2 Urban Fox bought for me straight from the dealership. My family and I had spent some time searching round each of the manufacturers to find the perfect small car before I passed my driving test. We chose Volks ...

Review of Volkswagen Fox 1.2

It's a Fox

Advantages: Cheap, Easy to drive/park, Good storage for small car,
Disadvantages: Cheap looking interior, bit noisy over 40mph.

The Urban Fox 1.2 - non smoking car

Advantages: Nippy, responsive, economical on fuel about town. Cheaper car tax £115

Review of Volkswagen Fox 1.2

Volkswagen Fox - not as foxy as it first seems

Advantages: spacious, cheap to buy, nippy, easy to park and turn round.
Disadvantages: short seats, noisy engine, not as economical on petrol, strictly a 4 seater!

I bought a Fox in April this year and so have 9 months motoring experience with it. The first thing that I would say is that in the main this is quite a good budget car to buy if you are not too tall. I'm not as convinced that it is as good on petrol as o ...
