VOLKSWAGEN POLO (2009-14) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.2 TSI 105 EU5 R LINE 6SPD

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VOLKSWAGEN POLO (2009-14) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.2 TSI 105 EU5 R LINE 6SPD is a three-door petrol hatchback in the UK’s popular supermini class. It combines Polo practicality with sportier R Line styling and a lively 105 horsepower engine, making it a more distinctive choice than a basic city-focused runabout.
It suits commuters, couples and first-time drivers who value easy parking, while its rear seats and boot handle shopping or passengers. The six-speed gearbox and turbocharged 1.2-litre engine give it more pace on faster roads than many small hatchbacks, without losing the compact feel that makes daily town driving straightforward.
