Super practical for a London car

I traded-down from the new BMW 5 Series after owning that for 18 months. Living in London, parking is always difficult at the best of times, and made all the more stressful having a large car, so I opted for something far smaller and practical.

What the Polo lacks in luxury (it's well spec'd and fitted to a good level for it's class, with a solid build), it more than makes up in versatility. Economy is good (45mpg combined between Motorway and London driving). It can be a bit noisy on Motorways. Feels spacious and comfortable inside.

Quality wise, it is let down by a few niggles, including a broken washer pump within the first 3 months, and a faulty light warning. Other than that, so far so good.
