DirtyFrank Posted July 10, 2019 Share I've only heard good stories. What fails on them? Which other options do you reckon are better? Just go and buy a 1,5lt Honda Jazz, way better car, much bigger inside, superb internal packaging space and will outlast any VW and wont get stolen.. dirtypot, coppi, bertusras and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frosty Posted July 11, 2019 Share Hi. I'm looking for a 2019 Polo confortline, but the prices vary so much.Surely there is a DP or Sales manager that is prepared to drop some stock to a really good price to get rid of some demo polo's? Easy, cash buyer that is just looking for a great deal on a fantastic car.Please helpHave you tried the VW dealership in Bruma?I've seen hundreds of Polos on the grass behind the dealership - probably every 2-3 months. They must have a corporate deal somewhere to park so many for a few days.  And +1 on the Suzuki - there are some well spec'd models.Have a look at the Bramley/Kyalami dealerships - they advertise on Mix FM.

RocknRolla Posted July 11, 2019 Share I'll go test drive one We did this, and ended getting a SUPERB deal on a BRV full spec.Owned a Brio prior, and that little car gave 0 hassles. I used to be a VW fan, but must say, Honda has seriously good offerings at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyFrank Posted July 11, 2019 Share I'll go test drive one Try the 1,5lt engine still uses a proper timing chain rather than rubber belt and can run to 300K.km easily. King_Crispy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigToe Posted July 11, 2019 Share If you are keen on a solid alternative drop me a DM.  Kia Rio is every bit as good, and bulletproof. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatt Posted July 12, 2019 Share Love the polo, but they come with unexpected running costs.. Headlights in a Polo can be removed in under a minute with a crowbar.  Replacement cost is around R32k once all the damage is fixed!.. Tom Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
