German Car Zone

It's not like the current Polo is a terrible car, though.

The problem is that it looks so monumentally dull compared to the new generation of stylish small cars like the new Fiesta for instance. One thing in the Polo's favor, though: It's great to drive. The handling is spot on, the gearbox is super smooth and the steering is very reponsive. I can only imagine the GTI version must be a hoot to drive.

I dare to say that despite of its dull looks, in terms of driving at least, the Polo, surprisingly, is right on par with the Mini Cooper and it's much better to drive than the porky Grande Punto.

I don't think that the Polo is dull. It just has conservative styling. I am a concervative man and i want a concervative car. That's why i drive a bloody Volvo. Now, I expect the next Polo to be concervative. At least less "excited" than this hideous and extra-edgy Seat Ibiza...

I happen to like the new Ibiza a lot.

The new Polo will be more conservative (it's target group are conservative , brand cautious buyers after all) but hopefully not too dull.

And when is it due?

Next year

Design will be different there is talk it will be more Scirocco (striking) than Golf (conservative).

Pffffff...soooooo long!!!!
