Considering a new Polo GTi

I am considering purchasing a new Polo GTi having found out from my insurers it'll be an extra Â£90 over the year to insure.

I currently have a 6n2 Polo Gti which is a very nice car and I've enjoyed owning one. But with all the gearbox problems and anything else it decides to throw at me, I'd rather get rid of it now and move onto something newer, hopefully less problems and of course faster.

I'm going to look at one today which fits into my price range and has full vienna leather interior.

I want to find out what problems I should look for, like common problems etc?

Yeah a few folk have had gear box issues. Not had that myself.

A had a new turbo fitted a few months ago but think that was just a one off ( well i hope! )
