Re: Shall I sell my BlueGT?
I've never had an issue with it, runs great, but I'm thinking about returning to BMW, a 330d MSport Tourer, I had a 06 plate 330d saloon a couple of years ago and thy are just awesome. The trouble is I just get itchy feet and start looking around. I know I should stick with the Polo really! I had in...

Re: Free insurance offer - managed by dealer or VW direct?
They do allow business use, I called them up and said I needed it for work as sometimes I have to go to another site that is not my permanent place of work, they added it free of charge!

Re: Potential new Polo Gti Owner
Hi, I have a 5 door Blue GT with a 5 and a 3 year old, I have no problems at all, they have large car seats and fit fine, I'm 5' 10" and my seat goes back quite a way but the little ones still have ample of leg room. The boot fits a small pushchair for the 3 year old when he needs it. When I wa...

Re: Gearbox stiff and clunky on VW Polo 1.2tsi ?
I have a BlueGT that's now covered 7000 miles and changing down to 2nd it is still stiff, I raised this with VW and they said that they generally wouldn't look at it until 10000 miles as it takes that long to loosen up, I'm not entirely convinced seeing as 2nd gear is used a lot where as 6th that is...

Re: Buying new - what sort of 'discount' to expect?
I ordered mine last August and it was delivered mid October, the local dealer told me they'd only knock a couple of hundred pounds off, I showed them the drive the deal price and after some lengthy negotiations I got just over £3000 off (Inc £1000 Finance contribution) The radio upgraded to a RCD510...

Re: Is the Polo GT much more economical than the GTI?
I have a BlueGT with 1100 miles on it now, its been averaging 50 mpg overall, around town I'm seeing 46 - 48 mpg, today I did a 80 mile round trip, mainly motorway / duel carriageway keeping between 70 and 80 and it still averaged 53 mpg! Drive it harder and it's low 40's

Re: Polo Blue GT
The cost to integrate the Bluetooth into the stereo / instrument cluster was £300 from the dealer, this was fitted before delivery, they said they used a local guy who came in and did it as it was cheaper than them doing it!!! it's a lot of money and I had trouble coming to terms spending that just ...
