For what my dad wants, yes. For instance, you can't get electric rear windows in the Clio yet they are standard on the Polo. I couldn't give 2 s***s if the back windows are electric but he does so I ain't complaining!
Yeah thats true, and I did an insurance quote and it came to £2950 whereas a...
I'd have to agree with you there, even the base model looks good.
Yeah that was another reason we've kind of decided on the Polo, given that one day i'll sell it on to upgrade. The problem with Bluemotion is that it's turbo diesel and it's hard to keep insurance down - i'll have to do a quote...
Pff its just a username ;) And I will have to look into Bluemotion but...
In the end it turns out you get more for your money on the Polo and a nicer interior in my opinion.
Thankyou!
My dad won't buy a fiat, it's a shame really
I think we have settled on the Polo now.
Again he won't buy a fiat unfortunately :(
There's a 1.2 Bluemotion? Are you sure :O
Someone who reads! ;) thanks
Thanks for all your responses but I stress that this is not my decision, if it were mine then I would buy an older car for sure. I do think it's unnecessary spending £8k+ on a first car but that's just how it has worked out.
Also I have done insurance quotes (full license) and 1/2 year old cars...
The TDi boosts my insurance way up :/ it's between the SE and Moda. Moda lacks air con but I'm not too bothered as it includes MP3/USB, tinted windows, nicer alloys and fog lamps.
Thanks for all the help guys, I'd have to agree that the Polo is probably my most realistic option. :D
Dont get me wrong, I love the mk2 and I know I could get a decent one but my dad's very picky and won't buy from anywhere but a dealer :( i'll definitely branch out more when I buy my own car.
We test drove the Polo and it did feel nice, although all the reviews say it's slow and overpriced? It...
I think the S is more around the spec I am looking for and it is an ex demo with only 17k miles for £8995.
My dad refuses to buy anything that isn't nearly new so this is as old as I can go I'm afraid :dapprove:
Firstly hello, I am new :)
I can start driving next month and went to a Renault dealership today to look at potential first cars. It has come down to the VW Polo and a Renault Clio.
Anyway, I was intrigued when the guy pointed out Clio S in red with white alloys, mirrors, spoiler and decals...
