And also, I can disrespect all I want even when it's not rubbish.
I don't have to do anything. I disrespect what I want when I want.

I suggest you take a chill pill. There's no need for this.

Oh dear. Somebody's been made to tidy their bedroom. It's just not fair!!

The point was, I do whatever I damn please as long as it's within the TOS

All the better if Betty dislikes it.

In 2005, there was nothing a Punto had over the German competition. In 2005, the Punto was a freaking dead relic already. Mentioning a Punto in 2017 is just not funny.

Edit;

Only thing about the Punto I could find is the gasoline engine: the Twinair twocilinder turbo in fact is the cleanest gasoline engine currently on sale in The Netherlands.

But then again, it's actually meant for lawnmowers.

I doubt you were old enough to drive in 2005, so the chances that you've ever driven a factory fresh Punto are slim to piss f#ck all!

Excellent job. Loads of tech that was only recently offered in the luxury class. Fresh, crisp design and German quality.

2018 Volkswagen Polo configurator launched, only has 1-Liter Engines

The all-new VW Polo can be played around with and configured to your specifications. The Trendline, Comfortline, Highline and Beats trims can already be ordered in Germany from €12,975.

The 2018 Polo is not what you'd call "too expensive." Its sister car, the new Ibiza, starts at €12,490 and while the Dacia Sandero is much cheaper, that's always been the case. But the sheer amount of available technologies means you could easily go over 20,000 euros and not end up with something amazing.

The Polo is the second car to be built on the MQB A0 platform. It's much more spacious than its predecessor, with both cargo and cabin space comparable to the Golf 5. Doing that while retaining the base price is an achievement for Volkswagen.

But you probably don't want the Trendline model because it has 14-inch steel wheels and unpainted door handles. It's like they're shaming you into paying more. Still, Front Assist with pedestrian detection is standard. For now, only two 1.0-liter engines are available on this trim, offering 65 or 75 PS.

But you don't want any of those. Your primary pick should be the 1.0 TSI with 95 PS, available from €17,200 with a 5-speed or €18,700 with DSG. For now, no diesel engines are available, and the 1.5 TSI is still testing, so you're stuck with three-bangers which aren't the smoothest in the world.

Volkswagen seems to want to sell a lot of Polo Beats models because they are about 1,000 euros cheaper than the Highline yet have bigger 16-inch wheels, an 8-speaker sound system with a subwoofer and a leather steering wheel.

The options list is pretty much as long as that of the Golf: €310 for Blind Spot Detection, €255 for adaptive cruise control that works to 210 km/h, €490 for a reversing camera or €565 for the Discover Media navigation system. It all seems pretty reasonable, at least for a Volkswagen.

The LED headlights will set you back just under 1,000, but the digital dashboard doesn't appear to be available yet. Have a play in the configurator and see if you can find it.

I am waiting for the Skoda version of the Fabizaolo.

You'll be waiting some time, the current Fabia was launched in 2015.

Volkswagen AG had a film crew in Hamburgs' historical warehouse district (Die Speicherstadt) quite recently conducting promotion work for the new Polo.

Nice car, I must say.

 

[braaf]

This car looks ridiculous.

Maybe Polo is good in fit and finish... But that's all. Polo from 2009 is still in many area behind Punto from 2005.

You obviously not actually been in a Polo or driven one to make this observation! LMAOFF! The Polo kills the Punto in so many areas in the way its built, to refinement and way it drives, engine line up and technology and safety specs. Only area where Punto is good in is styling.

I drove the new Ford Fiesta yesterday. The car looks so plain vanilla, just like the new polo. Boring design imo.

I think it looks just like the current one with a vastly improved interior. Not sure about the 3 cyliner engine in the ST, especially with the Poloi GTi now getting the 2.0 from the Golf, slightly detuned but they will be easily remedied.

Had a long sit in a couple of new Polos at the IAA in Frankfurt. It's noticeably bigger. I can see myself getting one in twelve months to replace my current Polo, and it would be more than capable of being my family car. Feels like a Golf really.

The new Polo, Ibiza and Fabia are punching above their class. You can comfortably sit someone who's 6 foot 2 in the back without them touching the ceiling. The only limitation is domestic holidays or transporting luggage for three people. Other than that, they are practical enough for 90% of day to day needs - especially of you don't have young children.
