1990 Volkswagen Polo Country review from UK and Ireland
"No better first car on the market"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Leg room could be a little better.. but then again I am 6ft 3.
Apart from that the only thing to go wrong has been the carburettor mount split.. which isn't the cheapest thing to replace but easy.
Also the alternator pivot bolt keeps coming loose, easy to fix with a bit of thread lock..
General comments?
Fantastic little car, cheap tax, cheap tyres and cheap day to day costs.
