Gotta say that I do like the new Polo, and the Polo R could be the one for me next!

Oooo. Was interested in the polo gti for the good power vs running costs, but this could be more fun!!

Along with the audi s1, rumours of upto 270hp and quattro  :happy2:

Spotted a modded a1  in berkeley sq the other day, pearly white colour with centre exhaust, lowered and on some tasty anthracite rims, certainly made me take another look

I didn't think VW were going to make the Polo R, but looks like its defo now. Wonder how much it will be and if it will be as ridiculously priced as the MkVI Golf R?

It wont be a manual. It probably wont happen either.

I think all this is just hearsay because of the Polo R branding on the WRC entry for 2013. It will price the car above the standard Golf GTI and i dont think VW will want to lose sales. Also still doubtful there will be a 4wd version of the A1 as well, and it certainly wouldnt be called the S1 for confusion with this:

Maybe this is the answer .. dont need a Golf sized car so save money and get the Polo R... cheaper to run and sounds like it could be pretty potent too.  4WD I would be suprised at but you never know.
