I'm the proud owner of a 1.2 mk6 Polo and I do adore my car (yes I know it's not much to shout about but it's all I could afford complete with insurance). My car doesn't seem to adore me however; admittedly I'm the second owner of it, it's still only done 14k though! Today I found out that the master clutch cylinder needs replacing. Is this a common enough problem or have I just been very unlucky? It suddenly refused to go into gear when it was cold just over a week ago.
The other problems I've had with my car are just down to the hazards of parking it on-street, I've had a couple of pretty bad scratches and a big dent from where the bin men hit it. I was capable of repairing that one myself though and still have the pictures to prove it! My blood does boil that people have damaged my car and they've known they've done it and just driven off. Oh well *sigh*
Still my Polo has been a great car to drive before it developed this problem and it's a great use of space for a car of it's size. Being able to carry four adults with luggage is pretty impressive although I struggle with hills at that point! And being 6ft and fitting comfortably into the driving seat is also something of an achievement!
