i'm not offended
I know what they're like.. I will upgrade soon. I spend a lot of time avoiding motorways and waste alot of time cross country driving, because, while it's viable to get hit hard anywhere.. the motorway smack up rate is a lot higher and in amongst all the big new cars, lorries and trucks I know the old Polo is rubbish.
Now: Winter update - the old girl heats up fast Most petrol drivers know this, but the Diesel drivers forget how fast a small petrol engined car churns out serous cabin heating. Nothing in the last 20 years has improved there. In fact I am genuinely enjoing an old fashioned non Air Con non climate system. And it gets HOT FAST
But oh the cold wet partial-steering lock corners are comical. There are a few slightly off camber corners and one with a few pot holes that make a mockery of the front suspension.
But the sunroof is lovely... even on average days. Having it tilted open improves air flow immensely - modern cars are missing out on the sun roof !
