In their own words

We have a white, March'17 2 door 60 Move, and a red, December '19 2 door 60, BMT. Both Mk2 cars bought from VW with warranty. We needed them as run abouts and to teach kids to drive. Perfect analogue cars to learn basics. MPG sensitive to your driving, seen mid 40's up to nearly 70mpg with 50mpg average possible for general use (tank range of 400 miles on a 7.7g tank). Surprisingly peppy given small engines, just ensure you change down when accelerating onto motorways or going up steep hills. White had a clunk/vibration in reverse which was corroded exhaust heat shield (fixed by the dealer for free BUT not covered under the warranty). Red had LEDs out on the rear high level brake light, new unit supplied under warranty. Both were still on original tyres so we had to persuade the dealers to replace as cracking. Red has a useful trip computer, start stop, and narrower tyres as a BlueMotion Tech car, but both are much the same otherwise. Very happy with them both.
