my polo does 520km for 38 liters...not even full tank as full tank is 45liters.

mine also 500km++ for full tank of 97.

Normal cruise in city. Still only 12k mileage after 8months of use. Gonna do my 1st service soon! hahahaa

ffuu
very good fc

i got a question,might sound silly
how fiesta fare agaisnt polo?

i love fiesta,but heard lots of horror stories bout sime darby after sale service

thanks

before i buy my polo, i actually went to test fiesta 1st. Overall size and room size is more or less the same. Polo interior room size is more spacious abit.

In terms of solidness and quality, the polo wins.. But in terms of technology, the fiesta comes with more "gadgets" and "tech".

Interior both have its merit. Really subjective. I like polo's simple interior design.

Fiesta's exterior look really good, especially i like the white sapphire editions. But new polos nowadays comes with 17" talladega rims, front fogs and nicer audio system.

Performance, i smoked a fiesta. Really leave him hard to chase me. However, subjective.

After sales services, so far i havent done my 1st service hahahaha, its almost 10months d hahaha.. So cant comment further.

The polo really fun car to drive.. try it to believe it

thank you.thank you very very much

your reply made me feel relieve that i choose to buy the more expensive polo.hopefully,i too will love my polo like u did

thanks again

no problem. The new spec is really better than the old spec ones.

the bigger rims really give the car more stability and control during high speed compared to my current 15" rims.

Overall, i still love this car.

thanks
silly question,any thought on the new coming beetle 2012?

IMHO the Beetle nowadays is a "women" car..if you are a guy driving it..you will get the odd stares

Also Polo and Beetle different segment class..

Its much more expensive hence value for money so so... For that kinda money I take the Golf 1.4TSI anyday and save some money for mods.

i was looking for a car about 1-2 months ago, after i cancelled my booking for the elantra 1.8 premium due to the delays.

I went to try out the polo and also tried out the 308 turbo. Of course the 308 is more spacious, felt solid and pretty powerful. I felt that the aircond is not really sufficient to cool the entire cabin during a hot day. i tested the 308 turbo for quite a distance and speeding at 160kmph but the aircond is not cold enough. Maybe it was just me and the hot afternoon.

Despite the more spacious cabin, cooler looking dashboard, extra features of the 308turbo compared to the polo, i went and bought the polo sport instead. I think the polo DSG is smoother and felt better than the 308's transmission, specially at higher speed. I also felt that polo is a more fun car to drive. The polo had a simpler dashboard design than the 308 or the fiesta but when i sat inside, i felt the quality, simple yet classy.

The polo have a few Common problems like the never fixable left ward alignment and vibrating sound frm the dashboard. It's quite common among polo.

Some ppl got it fixed, some can't do nuts about it.

What I m trying to say is none is Perfect...

The aircon of 308turbo is indeed not cold enough, i have tested many cars and found this problem as well.. Cold enough for some people but definitely feels hot to me

same dilemma, torn between the 4 chicks:

1) Focus TDCi (RM 124 393; both sedan & hatchback) [5.8l/100km claimed] [6-speed]
2) Polo (RM 113 888)  - 5 years warranty (unlimited mileage, but no free service) [5.9l/100km claimed] [7-speed DSG]
3) Polo GTI (RM 132 888 - 3 doors, RM135 888 - 5 doors) - *same as Polo  [5.9l/100km claimed] [7-speed DSG]
4) 308 Turbo (RM 118 888) - 3 YEARS FREE SERVICE INCL. PARTS & LABOR [7.6l/100km claimed] [6-speed Porsche]

usage:
travels average 80km/day; urban 80%

main concerns:
1 fuel consumption
2 maintenance cost
3 reliability (on par with vios, city; don't want like proton!!!)
4 till death do us part-type of owner *not changing car till it's time to write off; my previous car all used >9years
now... I'd really love to get the Polo GTI 3-door (a bit selfish considering I have a family, but since I'll be using it to commute alone daily to work & the 5-door model is extra 3k, I guess this should be ok ha ha!) because it's SEXY, AWESOME, SUPER-FAST! tried polo 1.2 TSI & immediately fell in love with it, read reviews on polo GTI it's more awesome (also I read somewhere the 1.4 GTI FC is better than the 1.2 TSI.. please clarify on this) thus badly wants it but it it THE MOST EXPENSIVE of them all... but again, their service is only every 15k right? thus the need for further decision-making process.

then, checked up on 308 TURBO, the specs, extras, MORE-ROOMY, the 3-years free service which included parts&labor & the 1.88% DO TEMPTS ME BAD. the salesperson kept calling for me to test drive it, says I should test it & polo, both & then decide - he seems really confident with 308 TURBO. haven't tried yet, but going to soon but now a bit busy. the downside is i there're many bad reviews on NAZA, not to mention the common saying "what do you expect, it's French, not German" 

finally the TDCi - it's the BIGGEST of them all, reliable & proven turbo-diesel & read about it's awesome FC etc. price also is between 308 TURBO & Polo GTI. but then, this is the oldest model in the market compared to the others.
in summary, I think my main concern returns to its FC & maintenance - which 1 should I get, & why?
