Should I buy the Polo 77tsi?

Chief ... how long do you expect to wait for this fully specced 77TSI? May/June of 2011?

It's not fully spec'd (just comfort,sport pacakge), gonna test drive one soon and go from there. Gonna also try the golf 90tsi to see what that's like and compare them. I could end up just saving a bit more money for a golf 90tsi if there will be a big waiting time.

chief - dealers appear to have lots of 77TSI comfortlines with no options for basically immediate delivery, but may/june for anything with options.

Ok, but for the extra $2,000 of options it's well worth it

Yeah, I'm going for the c/a/s options. But, I did think seriously about just taking the option free car, but knew I'd regret it later.

The South African build quality is fine,I have had 2 Jettas built there,1 was brilliant,the other was very good.

The audio upgrade (RCD510) can be done at the dealership. I was offered it for free on the Polo GTI i ordered.

Yeah, well documented. So the only european built Polos for Australia are GTIs and Trendline 3dr 1.4L

Naturally built in a country that is in massive debt, i honestly won't be surprised if in the first quarter Spain will declare they need financial aid from the European Union, its been documented as the Domino affect, so if you want a PoG i would advise placing an order soon.

I have decided to go with the Suzuki Swift Sport for $25,000 drive away

[Billecartz]

Good luck, especially at resale time!

Suzuki give a 8yr warranty and 8yrs of road side assistance have heard good things about the swift.

Really curious as to how this affects the build of the Polo, Spain doesn't build them, VAG do and VAG is not in massive debt.

Surprising development, don't recall Suzuki being mentioned as a contender but it's your prerogative to choose whichever car you want. Just out of curiosity, did you actually drive the Polo? What were your impressions of it?
