I brought this beauty in 2013. I had my doubts when i brought her home. The color was shadow blue. In a few days, i was looking forward to drive her everyday. I could not sleep , but had to look at her every now and then. This hatchback is what you proudly call a hot hatch back. Sheer power, looks , beautiful cruising feel, top notch safety and confident maneuvering at its best. No sounds, loose screws, no lag nothing. The turbo throttle opens and the adrenaline rush starts in the 3rd gear. 2018 now,86000kms and 5 services later, she is still fit as a tank. People still compliment me on the color and feel of the car. Volkswagen steals the show with this hatch back.i am going for my new gt this 2019. I still dont feel like selling her yet. Never let me down till date....wood touch. German engineering...you just cant beat that.
1 accident , an suv crashed her from behind at around 110km/hr. The suv's bonet and bumper were gone. My car lost its bumper and boit door. Not1 window pane shatterd, even the tail lamps were intact and working.3 of us in the car did not even have our seat belts on. Not a scratch on any of us, infact the impact felt like a small push from behind. Trust me when i say this....the cars a tank.
I am so much in love with her, i even talk to her at times....lovingly, i call her polly...
Thank you polly for these blessed years of sheer driving pleasure. What a beauty.
