The additional options included, paint, panoramic sunroof, xenons, convenience pack etc
The Skoda may be better value for money but it's the overall shape that is not to my personal tastes.

Yes but I have a golf gti now! The polo would be cheaper to tax and fuel? Plus under warranty. Plus doesn't need an mot. Plus doesn't need tyres. Etc.

I've looked at a new Polo GTI, around 19,500£ with the spec I wanted which was pretty much everything included in that price.

Only reason I looked is that I could get a 5 door one, as the Golf I have now with 3 doors is starting to be a bit testing when getting the little un in the car seat in the back.

But then, you can only get the stupid patterned seats for the Polo GTI, they should offer a leather option instead of just a scottish kilt for a seat pattern :(

The Leon FR is also something I looked at, but i'd never be happy knowing the Cupra was the top dog not the FR, just a shame there is no Cupra DSG... That has cost SEAT sales no doubt in my mind.

If you don't mind the silly seat pattern, then the Polo GTI seems to tick your boxes mate.

Interior in the facelift is better - still not as good as a golf but its a cheaper golf so what do you expect.


Cheap though,  ordered one today for the wife.  I agree on the DSG though, if it was in the Cupra I would have been tempted to let her have one of those instead.

Fully loaded FR DSG TSI car, bar leather, around £4k off list  :happy2:
