2007 Volkswagen Polo Sport review from UK and Ireland
"Great all-rounder"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The cars ABS doesn’t seem right. It kicks in too early and at completely pointless moments.
The brakes shudder when braking gently and I’ve already picked up my first puncture after only 6000 miles. I’ll put that down too bad luck be I did drive it 14 miles stone flat and no damage was cause to my alloy.
There is a rattle coming from the passengers seat belt holder. Apart from the above the car is fantastic!
General comments?
My polo is remapped to give the car a boost of around 45bhp making it very rapid.
The polo has a combination of everything. Superb fuel economy (avg. 61mpg on motorway). Great acceleration. 0-62 in 8.2s as apposed to 10.7s. Great top speed. 131mph compared to 117mph.
It handles the road very well, but traction control would be beneficiary. It’s also very comfortable to sit and sleep in.
It’s well priced and well built and great fun to drive.
