Polo Sedan

Thanks for the reply jktlee. I would like the Jetta too unfortunately it is out of my budget.

I would be using the car definitely for more than 5 yrs. Is the dated 1.6 engine in Polo Sedan that bad in terms of FC as compared to 1.2 TSI engine in the POLO Hatchback?

I would go for the Elantra. Hyundai service standards are pretty good IMO.

I'd trade in my kelisa for this polo sedan

reason:

1. too many T, H N on the road, I want a special or uniq one (myself only)

2. the spec i quite like it, altough is not TSI, or DSG, i bet the maintenance cheaper then TSI and DSG. Im married with 1 kid, so i no need traction control, no others extra stuff......I test drove, its good actually, i quite like it. Roomies, boot is huge, good for a small family.

3. Its VW. Im boring with the spec about T, H and N and others........

4. Fuel consumption is good , I manage to survey on the web. 600km 1 tank(maximum), 15k service interval, 15 inch Rim, 16 or 17 inch too big for me, and those tyres are expensive too.

5. only 1 car for my family, for long term, I never think to change any car. i believe the quality, even CBU from India. Not every cars is perfect.

6. Interior is nice, althoug its feels like plastic, but its ok too.

7. I manage to find out the gearbox is from Aisin Japan, matching the engine and proof its reliable with 6 speed.

haha, thats my choice la. I dun need speed like TSI, i need a car which less fuel consumption, less hassel, etc...polo sedan just nice...... and its VW.

It is call ESP, which Traction Control comes with it..

ESP is important not for racing or speeding, but for avoiding your car from skiing in the event you lose control.. it helps to point your nose to the direction where your car suppose to be heading. With ESP on, you cant to drifting, so it is program to keep your car at the right direction..

ESP is for safety purpose to avoid accident.. its even more important if you are concern about family safety, especially with Msia weather with plenty of rain and standstill water on the road..

Dissapointed with VGM not making ESP as standard on all their models..

Thanks, but no need to disappoint about it, i know ESP is for safety purpose, even many cars with ESP also got accident.....its depends how you drive, your attitude driving on the road is crucial far better then ESP (just my opinion).

sometimes is not the way we drive, sometimes is how other ppl drive no matter how cautious we are..
in the even we just might need some "extra help" to avoid accident bcos of other reckless driver, or nature like heavy downpour that cause our car to lose control out of our intention...

I still believe its a precaution no matter how safely we drive as I was hit by a reckless driver before and nearly gone into a spun and it was raining..

anyway, Polo Sedan is still a good car, enjoy it..its not a car but a German Engineering...

Well Said... I like you word is not a car but a German Engineering.....

I test drive the car as well, honestly I like it although is C-Segment with almost B-segment pricing... I own 2 Jap, 1 Proton previously and currently 1 Kia and 1 Puegeot....when I drive Polo Sedan I can felt the different vs the car I have before. Is not about the spec and features is something intangible and hard to explain. It just fell right.

Exact opposite bro, Polo sedan is a B-Segment with almost C-segment pricing lol

aisey... corrected already...

lol bryan almost turn my brain upside down there...

now SA offers pre-reg Polo Sedan at 85K, and whole new Honda City also at 85K... wondering which one to take. would maintenance and fuel consumption be much higher for Polo Sedan?
