polo is a good vehicle; but better to keep it in the showcase

Thanks for your review. Which variant of polo you bought?... I booked 1.2L Petrol Trendline last week. It costs Rs.5,09,500 on road. I paid 50K advance. The VW dealer and service people in madurai promised that they will deliver with in 90 days and the service will be at their best level. Will it be true?.. I am very confused now and planning to cancel the booking and move to SWIFT. Please let us know your feedback...

@Ramanujam: I am really surprised with people mentioning that they did not get vehicle on the promised date. When i booked the vehicle I was told I will get the car's delivery in 4 months and I got the delivery in 105 days i.e. 3.5 months. Booking amount is 50k. Rest of the money is to be paid on delivery, so where does hefty amount being paid in advance comes in picture. Now if you can wait for 4 months is your choice. And which spare are you talking about which costs 4 to 5 times than Swift. If you have done so much of research, can you please publish the comparison data???

Hi Mr.Rajyavardhan, Can you please let me know which model of polo you have bought?... What about your experience with Polo. Your feedbacks will be very useful for me. Thanks in advance.

I've Highline Petrol. btw There is no difference in the engine,suspension as compared to trendline which you have booked. My experience has been awesome so far except for the customer service which is long way to go for the dealer. The car will not disappoint you at all. Dont go for features on paper. Many other cars would have more feature than Polo however it is the built quality, the comfort, response from the steering that makes the difference. You will not regret buying this one for sure. I dont deny that its spare parts would be expensive than a Maruti Suzuki but how often you are replacing the spare?

To add on................. Polo is being manufactured since 1973. This is the fifth generation Polo. Already tried and tested in entire Europe and Australia. They have also made a few changes for Indian Roads. So you need not worry about performance and quality.

Mr. Rajyavardhan you are totally right . . . I too have a polo and do not have any such problems. And the wait is worth it. : )

I have a flair for POLO the day I saw it but a bit confused to book after seeing the coments about its spares and service.

@mr.ramanujam-i had booked the polo in the month of july and they said they would deliver it after 3 -3.5 months..but i got the delivery in 2 months itself!!

@chennai

hello nitin, which model you bought?...

Hi Friends, I have booked a Polo Highline. I have found one thing strange in this version that Stepheny wheel is 14 steel wheel

some of the dealers are bringing bad name to such a good vehicle.In case it is the strategy of Volkswagen to release only a limited supply in India by having a shortage, it could backfire since today the consumer have many choices. VOLKSWAGEN, YOU CANNOT GET A LOST CUSTOMER BACK SINCE ONLY FEW PEOPLE BUY CARS EVERY YEAR!

Hi, i want to buy a car but i m very much confused after seeing comments. My budget is 5-5.5L, please help me in selecting the car from SWIFT, FIGO, FIAT PUNTO, I20 etc. Thanx.

Some who has driven all the cars in this segment says that Punto is the best if can afford it followed by Figo and Polo. cost of Spares are an important consideration along with security features, ground clearance and addon given for free.

I booked VW Polo Highline by paying 50 K as an advance and was tole delivery period as minimum 3 months but I got delivery in less than 1 month. But I faced big problem after sale. My vehicle is lying in dealer's garage since last 21 days due to manufacturing defect in engine and still no clue when i will get my car. No one neither from VW company nor dealer person is taking ownership of it and giveing any confirm status. My car is second in Pune which has faced similar engine problem. You emails are not heard by any one in VW company. Dealer refuses to give customer care of VW numbers. On their web site there is no proper contact information. Overall VW takes Indian customers granted but not seriously.

i am confused i want to buy a polo comfortline or highline can anybody guide me first of all is it worth going for polo Thanks

hi,i want buy a hatchback car and my budget is around 6lak.My confusion is between skoda fabia and vw polo.......anybody plz help me wit this thanx....

hi every 1, everyone has got his own requirements ,even maruti 800 ruled the indian market . neutrally speaking all cars are gud...if u want power,u sacrifice on mileage, if u want turning heads u sacrifice money..... my dad owns polo highline diesel and i own i 20 but the comfort i get in driving polo is 100 times better then i 20 may rear leg space is lesser then i 20 but then who prefers a car over another for additinal 20 mm or 30 mm of leg room ... handling is better then i 20 and u drive at even 140 kmph u wont feel it in a polo...and definitely polo diesel gives my dad 21 kms in city traffic and a easy 25-30 on highway which is not the case with i 20 for all those who think of buying a polo or i 20 i suggest u to put yrself through a simple question can electronic ORVM's ,or a additional blower in front of co driver take over the credit from excellent handling,brakes control and last but not the least the number of turning heads. the boot of i 20 is larger then polo but the boot door of i 20 restricts keeping objects with larger width

Thanks a lot Mr. Avdhesh I was totally confused by the fake shine and electronics of i20 but you made it very clear to me thanks a lot...

Well, I booked a Polo Hiline Diesel on the 5th of July; the dealer offered delivery within two weeks. But I offered to take delivery on the 17th August. My Globe trotting son, gave me no choice, put his foot down and said that I don't see beyond the Polo and Polo is the car I should drive in Bangalore City. I drive about 70 Kms a day and his contention is, a saloon is not practical for my usage in city, I save about Rs.6/- per Kms on running cost compared to my faithful Santro which turns out 9 Kms in city, the Livion seats soothe my back, AC is powerful, more stability and safety on my occasional soujourns on the highway so on and so forth. His popular statement Why Korian when you have German!

iam planning to buy a car and my option is fabia & polo.out of these which is the best.please tell me...

I have seen the comparision of VW polo with almost all the cars (i20/figo/punto/swift) and found no doubt Polo wins the race. but can anyone from Delhi who drive the polo car tell me what is the after sale service impact comes. As seen spare parts are costly and parts will take time to deliver. Is this problem comes in delhi also. Pls tel me about the on road side assistance also. As I want to take Polo - Trendline(petrol).

I booked Polo TDI Highline on 20th May'11 and was delivered on 8th July...two weeks before the promised delivery time. Sales person was very cordial and helpful. But the best thing was the build quality of the car and high-class interiors. Though some creature comforts are absent (USB port, Aux port,Climate control,Steering mounted audio control,Automatic folding ORVM), my main requirements were ride quality(which I feel no other hatch-back can match that of Polo)and fuel efficiency. Even though, the engine is new, still being run-in and I am driving it in bumper-to-bumper traffic and on steep hills...it's returning an average of 14 KMPL, which I feel will improve further after I cross 2000-3000 KMs. There is an audible clatter of diesel engine (which fades off as you pick speed and roll you windows up)...but surprisingly I can not feel any vibration in the cabin. Overall, I am very happy with my Polo.

I am planning to buy a polo trendline petrol. Small confusion between i20, New Swift which is coming on 17th Aug-11, and Polo. Can any body Guide???
