1999 Volkswagen Polo review from Spain
"A good car let down by bad customer service"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
within 3 months of buying the car the motors on both electric windows failed.
Over the next year and a half the electric windows failed a further 10 times.
General comments?
The car is very solidly built.
Not a Car for long distances as you are in fifth gear at 30 miles per hour.
I will never buy a Volkswagen ever again because of the abysmal customer service that I have received.
