1993 Volkswagen Polo CL review from UK and Ireland
"Too good to be true!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
New exhaust back box.
Broken down once, replaced HT leads and plugs.
Engine tuned due to poor cold starting.
Air vent hose came lose (driver's side).
General comments?
Excellent little VeeDub, great car for a single young person with room for the family. Good image, but parts can be expensive, NEVER take to a main dealer.
Brakes are poor, but the engine and ride are smooth. Supension could be a little harder and trim levels and equipment on the CL are crap!
But car with on a good day can reach 105 mph! Only reached once :)
Door locks are poor and easy for people to break into so watch out!
