On the road
Driving
Best car I have ever driven for steering circle/lock. Can be a little 'skittery' especially in the wet. Otherwise very comfortable for a small car
Performance
Excellent performance from a such a small engine. Feels really quick. Very difficult not to wheel spin when pulling away at junctions.

Living with it
Reliability
Has never let me down, a very good example of VW reliability.
Image
Not really a car for image, but very practical and ideal for me.
Comfort
Average for a small hatchback.

Security and Service
Security
None fitted and a very easy car to break into.
Service
Do NOT use VW. Their service and customer care is woeful for such a quality car manufacturer. Find yourself a good VW specialist.
