    suspension

    thanks for reply. I gather you also have a VW?. I thought the Clio was harsh too I have not had a chance to drive. The 208 been a good car? Service costs dearer then VW? Any other plus of negatives about the other two you mentioned compared to VW? I can`t even believe I was even interested in another polo after all the **** VW put me through to get my motor replaced (oil eater) but the adaptive suspension caught my attention so now they have done it again with me . I have a 5 year old car with a somewhat new motor (approx 20,000kms) with all warranty finishing this Chissy what to do, what to do??? Service costs are over the top with VW though. If kia had a small hot hatch I would have one tomorrow for the 7 years warranty alone.

    Read about Clio RS 200 at ozrenaultsport.com
    Clio 220 RS coming out soon as well
    I wanted the user configurable Adaptive suspension but couldn't go the price increase to a Golf GTI so settled for the Polo GTI instead. I nearly bought a MT15 but decided to wait to see whether the Adaptive suspension would be made available as an option in MY16 models.
    It's a shame that LED headlights are not available as a separate option instead of being bundled with the Lux Pack.
    Anyone investigate fitting LED headlight conversion kits?

    I suppose it depends on the options and colour that you have specified in your order. I ordered my manual MY16 in white with DAP early August and got it in the first week of October...earlier than the dealer's estimate which was late October.

    KP,
    I have tried it with Android Auto and it works fine. However I use the Sat Nav as it is more convenient

    It would be interesting to find out if the long wait is due to high demand or whether manuals are not in high demand so they tag it on to another run

    VW import 20 DSG Polo GTI's to every 1 Manual Polo GTI. That's why the wait is so long for a manual one.
