The back looks a bit naff in my opinion - but it certainly does look meaner at the front and sides.

Image 15 shows drum breaks - I hate the look of drum breaks on my Polo after just 3 years (BROWN WITH RUST!) :(

How hard is it to make the back look as nice as the front?! Who knows :roll: :lol:

I can dream of upgrading to one eventually. . .*ponders how much my local VW dealer would offer for a trade in standard models* :mrgreen:

too bad they didn't use the same old 1.8 T :D
imo the 1.4tsi sucks ass. how reliable can a 1.4 and 170 bhp be ?

anyways, i like the design. i wonder what the 2 door version will look like.

Love the front and sides.... but not too sure about the back .... it'll probably grow on me!

Although.... 1.4TSi tuning potential .... not sure???

will look nice, in the rear view mirror, as a modified 20vt polo leaves even a tuned weedy tsi unit behind, for me its way too in your face, and too much to go wrong, you dont only have turbo to worry about, but a charger rebuild, imagine that main service, ouch,

i genuinely prefer my more subtle monster
