Description

The 2018 Volkswagen Polo 1.0 TSI SE delivers an engaging yet economical drive, with a willing little 1.0-litre engine and light, precise steering that makes urban manoeuvres and longer commutes equally enjoyable. The gearbox is smooth and the car’s compact dimensions give confidence in traffic while the suspension soaks up everyday road imperfections for a composed ride.

Practicality is a strong suit: a sensible boot, versatile 60/40 split rear seats and a well laid-out cabin make daily life simple. With full service history, two keys and a fresh MOT provided, it’s an attractive, low-cost ownership proposition.
