I agree - with evrything you have said. Super engine, super gearbox, fantastic brakes and awesome seats. The side bolstering is so effective in corners.

I have also done 0-100 many times in 7 seconds. This truly is a fast car.
And the way she takes corners - unreal for a front wheel drive car.

Yes, when you are driving sanely, she is quite fuel efficient as well.

Good to see you clocking so many kilometers so quickly. And that too without any niggles. Wishing you many many years of joyful ownership. Please do keep updating us with your experiences.

Re: Review: My Red Volkswagen Polo 1.8L GTI

Spotted you in traffic today. I was in a grey TSI drooling over the massive brakes near CDR Chowk this morning.

Absolutely love the colour and car. You're living the dream!

Thank you Virat, I usually commute during that time and if I remember correctly I have seen your car too.

The GT TSI is a lovely car, I had it for almost 21 months before I swapped with GTI.
