2001 Volkswagen Polo GTi review from UK and Ireland
"A rare understated hot hatch gem"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Standard BBS alloys have corroded badly.
General comments?
This car is an all round package of quality, reliability, power, looks and specification. Name me another car in its class that excels in all these areas...
