    Driving

    Great car to drive - very smooth.

    Performance

    3 out of 5 3.0

    I was disappointed here. It's not as nippy as I'd hoped.

    Very. No problems yet (regular servicing).

    Mine's pre-full colour code, so it looks more like a GTi. Not an executive motor by any stretch of the imagination.

    Comfort

    5 out of 5 5.0

    Great car for long motorways.

  • Security and Service

    Security

    4 out of 5 4.0

    Locks are supposed to be poor. Flashing immobiliser light (Cat 1 required) probably keeps people away.

    Service

    1 out of 5 1.0

    Used car - VW not interested. Warranty useless unless it falls apart.
