Loan Car

[WhiteGTI]

Yeah I had a little Polo the other week. Nice little car, very responsive electric steering but not enough feel really (not that I was expecting much tbh!)

Went quite well for a little 1.2.

Got a Fiesta courtesy car the other week whilst my other car was in for a service, and I must admit - it is a far superior car to the Polo.

Ford have some very good engineers.  Their cars are all good to drive.  But the image in the UK makes it hard to buy one.
(My leave and forget Ford Ka in The IOM (no MOT) is actually a really fun drive, great steering and handling, but rubbish quality and image)

I rate Fords current range highly too Nosher, well I do work for them (well used to since the Indians bought us out)
I can change gear in a Ka without using the clutch, smoother than with using it!! try it next time you drive it.

If you look on YouTube (tt 2008 ford ka) you can see a very long video of my Ka driving around the 37 mile TT course.  It's electronic ignition unit was broken and it would only do about 15 mph uphill.  I was on a crosser following.

Must try the clutchless shift.  Better than a DSG.

Wifes 130ps Polo Sport is brilliant drive even compared to my Ed30.Has stonking performance and never fails to leave a few surprised faces in its wake..

I got stuck with a VW Fox last time my car went in, It was bloody awful!

Oh unlucky!!!! You picked the short straw there!

Just noticed you're from Wokingham, no doubt I will see you around the area!

I heard that originally, the new shape Polo was meant to be a Golf but they redesigned a better Golf instead. How true is this?

Also, Lupo GTI  I had to look that up to see if it was actually real!

If I had to have a proper small car, it would be a much modified Lupo GTI
