Any current FoFi owner can comment on gearbox problem, how much it costs to replace, and whether parts are readily available?

gearbox is not really problematic. sure the dual clutch isnt as smooth as volkswagen's dsg. in fact fiesta uses dry clutch, so even compared to focus or mondeo's gearbox, this one is rougher. changing from 2 to 3 is a bit jerky at low speeds. 1 to 2 even more jerky, but ur car rarely go into 1. usually start at 2. only if uphill and low speed, then ur car will use 1.

i just changed some parts of my gearbox at 48k mileage. becos got some oil leaking. but very minimal, not even dripping to the floor, just some oil at bottom of gearbox there. since got warranty, i just changed for free. after change, doesnt feel any difference.

one way to overcome the jerkiness it to drive spiritedly. at high revs the gearbox copes well. at low revs the dual clutch always hesitate to change, and sometimes got confused as well.

cramped, small windshield, turbo lag, feel plasticky despite being a vw, costs 20k more than highest spec fiesta, doesnt even come with leather seat, no usb audio.

only thing i like about the polo is the dsg. friggin smooth.
