how would i check my dealer said something about where my car was being made but it was so long ago i cant remember although he may have been misinformedGrey_Polo wrote:Mine has no rattles (1.4 16v), is 16 months old, does 48 miles to gallon (5.8 litres/100km), has covered 23,000kms without using any oil and has yet to be serviced (due at 30,000kms).
