Sounds like a great little car. Although I'm going to have to ask if there is 2 types of 1.2 on sale?  :undecided:

I had a 1.2 Polo courtesy car and there definitely wasn't a turbo on it.

Really like the new Polo's.

And you're more than welcome.  :smiley:

Picked her up today! Well impressed.

Although as I was sat in the dealership with my partner, some tool scratched the bumper with his car and drove off!

VW are fixing it tomorrow first thing and I get a Polo GTI with DSG as a courtesy car.

Oh and we got a bunch of flowers as a thankyou.

TOP NOTCH service!

Blimey, a bunch of flowers you must be honoured as all I got was to be asked that I leave decent remarks about the salesman and dealership.

The GTI will get the neighbours curtains twitching. Pity you can't keep it.

Ah, that makes sense, because the 1.2 3 cylinder I had was anything but brisk. Girlfriend's 1.0 3 cylinder Corsa is was quicker.

That's a bit annoying about someone hitting the car but not a bad resolution. If you know the guy you could ask him to pop back round and scratch the bumper again when it's time to give the GTI back.  :evil:

Congratulations and welcome. I really like the Polo and hope you enjoy yours. It's a bit of a sickener that some *@#%*¥€# scraped your bumper and didn't have the decency to stop. Candy white should be an easy colour to match - Hope the dealer does a decent repair job.

I also got good service from my dealer; very regular updates between ordering and taking delivery; never needed to chase them up for an update. Also got a bottle of champagne and (another) VW umbrella when I picked up my car last July. It's not the closest VW dealer to my home but I've dealt with them for 10 years and would rather travel the extra distance to get good service.

Enjoy your car and post some pictures up soon :smiley:
