Polo GTI 7-Speed DSG Only

Post by roywolfey »

According to What Car. :lol:

"Unlike those manual-only rivals, though, you can only have a seven-speed DSG automatic gearbox with the Polo"

Perhaps more inexcusable is this snippet from VWUK's website:

"Not only that, but if you forget your charging cable, the Polo GTI’s got you covered with a state-of-the-art inductive charging system. All you have to do is place your compatible phone in the front storage compartment and watch your battery life increase."
