Ritey Posted April 20, 2004 Report Share Posted April 20, 2004 Well what can I say, went to the dealers today to drop off my Polo GTI for some warranty work and asked, "so what do I get to play with instead?" and the polite young lady said, "a Touran, is that ok?" I said sure (thinking what the hell! I was expecting a 1.0 lupo or something!) Have to say a very good car, I believe I had the 1.6 115bhp version and my did it go well! Pulled well, stopped sharply which was nice as it did feel like a big vehicle! Sounds system seemed quite good, and plently of space! Ok looks wise from the back its a box but still its not an ugly box, there are lines that make it appealing still. On the whole I thought it was a mighty fine vehicle, and also made my Polo GTI feel even more sporty once I picked it up Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ritey Posted April 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 Yeah Nelly306 sorted that, basically instead of being a nice soft push click or drop from a small height we had to slam it really hard before it would catch, mentioned it to VW when I took it back, they added it to a few other faults already known to that car!

Matt R Posted April 21, 2004 Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 We have one of these in our workshop at the moment, 700 miles and the gearbox is shot!! The 1.6 we have is 102 BHP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritey Posted April 21, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2004 The 1 I tried had electrical problems - sensor problems all over the place! But still reckon its a good car once niggles were sorted! Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ritey Posted April 27, 2004 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2004 Got it back again today, few more scrapes on it since I last had it, VW must have lent it to some bad drivers!!! Got a melted front end now Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
