2011 Volkswagen Polo S 1.2 petrol from UK and Ireland
Summary:
It will get you there, albeit slowly
Faults:
Honestly nothing more than the parts replaced that you would expect for this age. No major problems with this car, I keep it serviced and looked after well. Exterior and interior look as good as new and it is over 10 years old now!
General Comments:
A fantastically reliable little car, this Polo has been my daily driver for the last few years and never let me down.
1.2 petrol engine is shockingly slow. Has only 59 bhp I believe. Even my works diesel van is faster. But it can do 45 - 49 mpg, great for a petrol engine.
Nothing special to drive. Quite pleasant and quiet. That is all I need. Comfort levels are OK, but it is a very small and basic car. Not much equipment on this "S" model. I'd go for an SE or above if buying again.
My God it is slow, but it is a cheap to run daily driver that has never let me down, can't say fairer than that.
Would you buy another car from this manufacturer? Yes
