well after looking at the TDI Golf (MK4)and then looking at this "we" liked the Polo better.... it was newer, running cost were less, 3 years warrenty etc..
We got it with 3K miles on it, Registered MARCH 2006 - some Guy in his 70'tis' got both his sons one each which were about 40yrs old, but it was too small for one of them,
Its got one of the most expensive licks of paint, VW Factory 16inch alloys and the spare wheel is only the same!!, Air con with climate control, MP3 player, front fogs and normal spec you would expect from a SE.
Also i liked the indicators in the Mirrors!!
its only the 1.2 petrol, however its the 65psi rather than the 55psi one, its got a good bit of power and feels very nice and nippy to drive.. returns about 54MPG URBAN so cant fault it at that!
i enjoying giving it a run out for a change now and again,
The best thing about it is that i have not seen one on the road yet with the same alloys... they all have the factory fit 14inch alloys...
I looked at the POLO GTI but it was too much cash as this ine was meant to be the small purchase as im replacing the Audi next summer time!! 9thats were the ££££ are!!
Thanks for the comments!!
Cheers
