When referring to 'day and night', I mean you can pick up a 2014 titanium x, with under 5k on the clock for 11k. The engine extra power and everything you need (apart from a sunroof) I agree with the interior, I will need to evaluate on test drive!blackertracker wrote:What was the outcome of the timing chain issue on your Polo?lxm wrote: Top spec, Titanium X

Not 100% about the interior or back end, but test drive booked for next week. Power and extras are 'day and night' compared to the Polo.
Fiestas are good to drive but I don't think they're quite as amazing as the motoring press makes them out to be.
Interior lets them down. Not as refined & quiet as some other cars.
As for extras over a Polo? You can't have a sunroof for one thing so not sure it's 'day & night'.
Polo cost me 1.6k to sort, VW wanted nothing to do with it. That made me sick to the stomach, and although I've just 'invested' 1.6k into the car I honestly just want rid of it at the moment, it really ruined my relationship with the car, and the engine is pretty out-dated.
All I can say is Volkswagen have hugely let themselves down! They incorporate a lifetime timing chain in an engine which cannot be maintained or serviced, which fails and completely destroys the engine, and take no responsibility at all.
