I'm very interested in this. a 1.2 TSI engine with turbo, save petrol, save road tax.

 

Don't know when is Singapore getting this, hopfully I'l be buying it next year around march.

is it a DSG gearbox?

[Kangadrool]

They are clearing their current stock. So, should be already in or on the ship now.

 

Nice car, but still no true manual gear being brought in by VW Singapore.

exterior like exactly a downsize golf leh....but not bad...design looks solid...

[Tremor]

Hope VW price it competitively too. If not, nice design, good engine also no use.

nice car...hope the price is not that steep....

[Kangadrool]

Looks like in the 70K bracket by their past records and positioning of the brand as premium brand in SG . Further, it's new, so don't expect cheap.

Apart from budget and high-performance cars, how many people buy manual these days?

[Kangadrool]

Polo is actually a budget, entry level car. It's only they try to glamorize it in SG.

[Tremor]

Yea, so actually the clear stock price of 58k I think is reasonable for Polo on normal non-clear stock days.

I think can expect the new polo by christmas.

I also like this compact VW. But I think it's a little $$$ for small car though.

would you buy this over the Honda Jazz?

Yes, PROVIDED:

 

- it's full manual (DSG is still unproven in terms of long term reliability)

- priced at or less than Jazz.

I would actually pay more for Polo than Jazz. My first ever car was a VW when I was in uni in Aus. A VW Kombi. Drinks fuel like a ferrari but doesn't matter, fuel was much cheaper before.

polo v likely will be smaller than jazz on the inside....

 

So paying the same price seems not practical.
