Review Comments

1.0MPI Manual 5 speed gearbox - while the power ratios seem under powered. It's a Good car for city driving and it's handling and steering feedback gives you so much confidence.


VW Polo Highline plus Pros
  • Good Driving dynamics
  • Excellent Interior fit and finish
  • Great Build
VW Polo Highline plus Cons
  • 1st gear start is slow, especially on slopes if you are stuck in traffic, (I kind of mastered it) but takes time.
  • If your family or everyone in your family are above 5ft 10 inches and are very healthy, not the right car for space in rear - below 5feet 8 inches, it’s comfortable.

To give an example of build quality, my car went off-road into farms in village as I had to escape collision with Swaraj Mazda van on a blind turn and had to take it off road - the car had few scratches and ORVM on left side broke off, with A pillar being dented on left side - I thought I was gone for sure the way it went off-road - but build and safety is amazing.


I had done a PPF for car as well and black roof sheet too make it look sporty. Will keep it for 6-7 years till I have money to buy a better VW then Polo
