Glorious Glanza a awesome car

Awesome car my first one used to have a car when my dad was around, the only thing is that the suspension is not up to the mark but after driving this car I will not buy any other brand than Toyota.

Polo is a great car

The Polo is a great buy if you won’t be using the rear seats often, and need nothing but a well-built car to tackle the daily grind Loaded with features such as automatic AC, touchscreen infotainment, auto-dimming mirror etc. Available with a variety of engine-transmission options. Build quality inside out is best-in-class. Doors close with a thunk, no trace of scratchy plastics in the interior. Clean, no-frills design looks classy and understated.
