just would like to know your thoughts on this car for a old lady .My MUMMY !
they look like a good buy $17990 +ORC
seagull
get a Polo.
or spend the extra and get a Golf.
For $18k you'd get a sweet mk4 golf.
Not keen on the colts myself. They look a bit like a souped up packing box? My mum has a toyota echo, and i reckon they are top cars for their price,
you should definitely have a look at one. The part i really like is the digital dash which is in the centre of the car and like looking through a
tunnel! Your mum might like the driving position and also the layout of the car (they make good cars for women i think because there are lots of
little storage places in the car and plenty of room for the shopping cos everything folds down!) I've found toyota's to be pretty reliable, and for
the price, the toyota echo's are great!

sure the echos r reliable, but... theyre... UGLY
looking on the web , the VW polo is made in China ? there was a wright up in the Australian news paper .
I had one of those Echo, Echo, Echo... things as a hire car in Sydney this year. The central digital dash is a novelty, but certainly not a selling
point. It's position is distracting and away from the direct line of vision, which must raise safety concerns. And its definitely a Toyota - styling
and design has not changed since the eighties. And it's not just Toyota that suffers from the ho-hum syndrome - those Hyundai Getz should live up to
their name and Getz back overseas. And the Pulsars chew more petrol than a Kombi Ute hauling a car trailer.
My experience behind the wheel of the Volkswagen Golf range shows these cars to be superior in every way. They are built better, have excellent
handling and driving manners (in the Japanaese small cars I always seemed to have to push them to get anywhere and there is plenty of body roll), and
for the price offer a much better value proposition. The Golfs also offer something different in style and design, particularly dash layout. And
diesel is the way to go - fuel economy is outstanding with no loss in power.
I check out the golf , thanks
Dude stay well clear of any mitsubishi right now , they are on the brink of shutting production. the asian market has died for them and they rely on
the aussiemarket. if the new 380 is a flop say bye bye to mits ..
