What Car? says
For Drives as well as a VW Golf, but dearer
Against Can be expensive to buy and own
Verdict
Looks classy and has a drive to match
Go for… 1.6 FSI SE
Avoid… 1.6 Sport three-door
- 1. Some owners report that the DSG transmission is too jerky
- 2. Boot is well shaped and fairly generous
- 3. Suspension on Sport models leads to an over-firm ride, so these models are best avoided
- 4. The steering isn't as sharp as a BMW's, so it will disappoint keen drivers
- 5. Seats on Sport models are said by some to be too hard, so make sure you can live with them
