Menzerna polish is meant to be good for vw because of the hard paint.Havent tried it myself yet but will be soon. seen some really good result with it and a machine polisher.
Have a look on clean your car, or Elite.

Auto Glym is pants in my opinion. Im never happy with the finish every time i've used it (super resin polish) i thought maybe it was the way i was applying it or what i was using to buff it but NO it's just naff! Auto Glym car shampoo however i do like.

Last year i bought a whole kit with menzerna polish from CleanYourCar.co.uk and i couldn't ask for more! Mine comes with the 4 different compounds with a good variation of cut and gloss ratings and using it with a DA polisher gets great results!

I'd say go and buy it now you wont regret it! And make sure you get microfibre everything (drying towel and cloths) and a wool mit or equivalent otherwise your efforts will be ruined. Hope this helps!

Disagree. All companys have good and not so good products to a certain extent.

AG super resin polish, fast glass, HD wax to name a few are great products.
