1989 Volkswagen Polo c review from UK and Ireland
"A typical Volkswagen at its best"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Slow puncture always on the front tyre on the drivers side.
General comments?
The car always starts up first time.
Surprisingly quick for a 1.0 litre.
The handling is very good since the car doesn't weigh that much.
The looks of the car aren't the best in the world, but as the saying goes looks are'nt everything.
Fuel economy is excellent I filled my up completely and it lasted for about nearly 1 and half weeks traveling at least 25 miles a day.
