    My tip would be to get a VW Specialist in your area to look over the car before purchasing as NRMA or RACV etc are use to Japs and Commies etc.

    Also call a VW Dealer or Specialist and find out common problems with the car model you plan on buying and work out costs that way.

    Obviously your buying a Euro engineered car and as we are far away from Europe, parts will have a premium over the Asian/Australian cars.

    Hope all these tips are helping you on your purchase.

    Good Luck
    Thanks for the tip, can you recommend any vw dealer/specialist/mechanic that can help check-out a 2nd hand car?

    Cheers
    Caleb

    I don't know much bout the early models. But they are a tough little car and well built.
    The car i'm looking at is a 2005 VOLKSWAGEN POLO 9N MY2004 Club. It's only done about 18,000km.

    i think i've decided on buying a new polo match as vw is having a special drive-away offer.
