Small car that could take 2 suitcases with ease. It fulfilled our requirements in that respect.
The only concerns we had were the sharpness of the brakes and the accelerator which acted like an on switch. We still have difficulty as I have another car which works normally. It is however a very practical and economical car which does have excellent kerb appeal and looks stunning in blue. The first service period should have been shorter than 12 months as the issues we had with the car were resolved when the car was serviced, however , they have resurfaced within 9 months which hopefully will be fixed when next serviced.
12 months service interval is too long. Items standard on other makes are expensive add ons in this high end car.
We like it’s practicality and economy. It is also quite roomy for its size and comfortable during long distances
Won’t buy another VW
