2003 Volkswagen Polo Trendline 1.2 65BHP review from Cyprus
"A cut above the rest in the class"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Thus far the only fault was a minor rattle coming from the rear of the car. This rattle occurred when going over a serve bump in the road and not over poor surfaces. This was fixed by the dealer.
General comments?
I have enjoyed fault free motoring for over 5,000 Km. The car has been everything that I expected.
The 1.2 65BHP is sweet and strong, but overtaking has to be planned with care. This small engine lacks the raw power to blast past other cars on the road. But otherwise the car returns decent performance.
The semi-automatic air conditioning sometimes struggles with the hottest Cyprus days. But again, this is not a major problem.
