- BUY, LEASE OR FINANCE A TOYOTA YARIS FROM OSV: bit.ly/2H1Sog6
In MK4 model form, the Toyota Yaris has been further Europeanised with sharper styling, a better quality interior, improved media connectivity and significant changes to its segment-leading hybrid engine. What was already a class act has just become genuinely hard to overlook.
Background
If you were asked to name the cars vying for the title of best supermini, it would be a reasonable wager that the Toyota Yaris wouldn't be amongst your top three. If, on the other hand, you had to name a small car that would be trouble-free, cheap to run and easy to use, it would be right up there. The thing is, those criteria are exactly what many supermini buyers are looking for. They don't care if the car can't take the Esses at Donington flat without lapsing into understeer. It's an irrelevance for most but car magazines still put a huge priority on handling and award their 'best of' titles predominantly on which cars are most fun to drive at the limit.
The Yaris has always been a supermini that works well in the real world and this fourth generation car is no exception. It has long lacked a bit of flair though, and Toyota has belatedly realised this, endowing the latest model with a lot more styling input, as well as engineering improvements. It's now exclusively a self-charging hybrid.
Driving Experience
Here, Yaris buyers won't get the conventional 1.0-litre and 1.5-litre petrol engines offered with the car in other markets. That's because the brand thinks customers will want the self-charging hybrid version. This electrified variant features a new 1.5-litre petrol powertrain mated to a CVT auto transmission that's claimed to be more linear in response than the old Yaris Hybrid 'rubber band'-like set-up. The electrified petrol engine is 1490cc in size but has the same bore, stroke and piston size as the 2.0-litre hybrid unit that Toyota uses in the Corolla. Maximum engine power is 90hp, the combined system output is 114hp and there's 120Nm of torque. This car makes 62mph in 10.5s en route to 109mph.
The brand reckons that the new lithium-ion battery will be able to drain and recharge more quickly than the previous unit, which means that it will be able to provide more of an electric surge through the 79hp electric motor. As a result, the company expects that over 80% of urban journeys in this car will be able to be completed under electric power alone. On all models, ride quality should be better thanks to suspension tweaks and a considerably more rigid body.
Design and Build
The Yaris takes its styling influence from the current Corolla family hatch, the panel work adopting various creases to give it some extra flair. Pronounced blister feature over the wheel arches, plus there's complex surfacing over the rear doors - and the car is both lower and wider than its predecessor. Unusually and against the current trend, this MK4 design is actually slightly smaller than the one it replaces, measuring in at 3,940mm - most supermini rivals are over 4 metres long. As usual, of more importance is the stuff you can't see - namely the new generation 'GA-B' platform this car sits upon.
Inside, you'll notice features more commonly seen in larger cars, including a large 10-inch centre-dash infotainment touchscreen. 'Apple CarPlay'/'Android Auto' smartphone-mirroring is standard. There's also a further TFT information display between the two instrument binnacle gauges. The driver's seat positions you a little lower than before (36mm lower to be exact) and there are plenty of soft-touch materials around the cabin. The dashboard has been made slimmer and is set lower, with a wider and higher centre console. The driver's instrument binnacle has twin digital meters flanking the TFT multi-information display, and is presented with a shallow hood. Last, but not least, the steering wheel size has been reduced. The rear part of the cabin isn't especially spacious, but the boot area is of a versatile size and is enhanced by a variable-height boot floor.

6:51 It's a CVT, but with a different construction than a regular CVT. There are no belts, only a planetary gear set that combines the engine and the electric motors. It doesn't have any clutches either. Therefore, the transmission doesn't suffer from problems often associated with CVTs, like drive belts breaking or slipping. In fact, the Toyota eCVT is one of the most reliable transmissions ever made, proven by its popularity in taxicabs.
It is by far the best presentation of the Toyota Yaris 1.5 Hybrid than any other channel.
This presentation helped me a lot so that I finally decided to buy this car.
Although the video was a bit long, it solved all my questions, but all the questions I had down to the last detail.
Great job, awesome presentation. *****

A very thorough review. I had already ordered the Yaris Excel with Tech Pack and Glass Roof but this helped me confirm I had made the right choice on replacing my current Toyota CH-R which I've had for the last 3 years! Incidentally there's not much difference in interior space between the CHR and Yaris.
That's fantastic to hear Andrew, hope you enjoy your new Yaris!
Excellent review. Thank you sir!
Our pleasure! Thank you for watching 👍
Very well done. This guy is a pro. Covered everything i wanted to hear and more.

I have just purchased an excel version, this review is, without doubt, the most comprehensive and accurate review I have seen. In a word excellent.
Thank you for watching, Ivan. We hope you enjoy your new Yaris! What made you choose this car over other models?
@@OsvUkVehicleSupplyReliability, This is my 21st new car in my motoring career and my 5th Toyota and 4th hybrid, the only make that has not had to be returned for warranty issues.
@@ivanhowlett4907 Can you give us an update on your ownership? I am considering buying one, I mainly drive in the city with heavy traffic.
The best review and reviewer I've seen.
That's very kind of you to say! Many thanks for watching 👍
Just ordered one. I have to say that Toyota has taken a big step forward with this model. How it drives and how the drivetrain works is much better than in previous model. The hybrid is much better than normal 1.5. The engine doesn't have so high rpm while you accelerate and mpg is better. It also seems to have more useable power than normal 1.5. In my country the price is only 1500€ higher. That you can easily save having lower running costs. What comes to reliability, nothing beats Toyota. You can be sure that this car will do just fine after the warranty expires. I wouldn't be so sure if that's the case with it's many rivals.
"The hybrid is much better than normal 1.5" - but the normal 1.5 (125hp) is 0.7 sec. faster on 0-100 than hybrid?!
Bonjour j ai essayé et commande ma yaris pour mars pouvez vous me dire ce que vous en pensez conduite.consommation etc merci à vous
@@rusiklv1867
i have just tried the automatic version, with 125hp, and it is hopeless. soo slow, compared to the hybrid i drive everyday at work - full time.
tomorrow i buy the hybrid. it is incredible...

Just ordered my Yaris Hybrid Premiere Edition (full package with 17" rimes and in Tokyo Red Fusion) one week ago, it should arrive in the next 2 weeks. I can't wait any day longer😅 I felt totally "in love" with it.

Excellent review. Just ordered the yaris excel
How exciting!! Enjoy your new car, Bernadette 👍 What made you choose the Yaris over other models?
Very informative review as usual. One observation on the CVT gearbox. There is no belt in this system. It’s a planetary gear set and because it works similarly to a conventional CVT they called it e-CVT. I agree that the 17 inch models have firmer ride therefore it’s crucial to make sure that the tyre pressure is set correctly. It’s a brilliant car by the way.
Many thanks for the feedback, Akos. Great to hear you enjoyed the review 👍
Is the Multidrive S belt-driven? The petrol-only models (not sold in the UK) get that gearbox.
Also, 'B' mode does not do any additional regen, it's just engine braking and will actually give you worse regen as more breaking will be done by the engine.
I just got a fiesta st line a year ago. I seen one of these drive by me yesterday and I need one.
i test drove 1 yesturday and will be teaching in one. roads im mostly on i was getting 88mpg on average. test drove for 1 hour. I have been using audi cars to teach in and i never thought id go from audi to toyota , but here we are, well done toyota the first car i can look at and not be sick if i wanted a hybrid car.

How's the MPG going? I'm a little confused that your test had significantly over the stated mpg... What's that about? Typically the figures are hard to obtain in real world.
@@brainfood101 I drive a 10 years old Auris Hybrid with over 200k km on the clock and I can still get under 4l/100km
Best review, so detailed
Thanks for the great feedback, Julie. Glad you enjoyed the review 👍
Mike Sanders, thanks for your comment, however, as I tend to rely on Jonathan’s detailed reviews, I will take his advice before making a decision between the Design and Dynamic and road test them both as I have encountered quite uncomfortable road feedback through larger than standard wheels on completely different makes of vehicles.
Sorry Please tell me the name of the reviewer ,thanks
Really great review. Thanks

One need not test drive this after watching this review. They could immediately make a decision whether or not to choose this car! Thanks for such a thorough review.
Hi there, thank you for the brilliant feedback 👍 We aim to make our reviews as detailed as possible to help viewers decide if it's the right vehicle for them.
Very important observation at 9:39, regarding the comfort of 16” wheel suspension setup, compared with 17” wheels of higher spec.
Having been in both I can confirm that there is a noticeable different in ride quality and comfort for the 16” over the 17”. With little trade off in real world handling and steering sharpness
Yes, ride comfort for my next car is important as the roads round town are dreadful. Far too many potholes, broken sections of tarmac, poorly filled trenches across the road, you bang over so much its really 4x4 territory but I haven’t the room to park or the money for a Land Cruiser. Smaller wheels are the key with any car for ride comfort. A BMW 1 series for example, most have larger wheels, the ride is too hard and sometimes with some makes and models, bigger wheels look worse anyway than the standard smaller alloys. Looks much better on the 1 series with smaller wheels, the body shape looks more balanced. Rides far nicer.
Best review i read for this car.
Brilliant! Thank you for watching 👍
Very comprehensive! Thanks!

Very informative video. I would like to point though, around min 50, where you comment about the hybrid battery, and you say that now it's below the backseat instead of under the boot,.. well, on my 2017 Yaris, the hybrid battery is also under the backseat, so no change there. Thank you.
Thanks for your feedback, Marco 👍
Excellent review, I had a quick test drive of one (Icon trim) at the weekend and was very impressed with how brisk and smooth it was. I've decided to buy one in Design trim. I've found the Dynamic trim is hard to find and don't like the idea of the light interior in the Excel which is a shame as I'd enjoy the 17" wheels and keyless entry/start.

@@victordg7745 no
Just received the Yaris Design last week in white. I absolutely love it. Previous car was the Aygo which was my first car (only passed my test four years ago) and four years of having a car struggling up hills got too much. Just perfect for me and my needs. Moving from a 1.0 to a 1.5 is such a difference.
Great choice, Euan. Glad to hear you're enjoying your new car 👍
Would you say that the new Yaris is a good car to learn to drive in?
@@HolleeChantelle I actually learned in a Yaris. I did actually enjoy driving it but the new models are so much better in my opinion. So yes, I would say it is a good car to learn in. Not too big and not too small.
@@euanmalcolm1981 brilliant thank you, I’ll be learning in the newest model of the Yaris so I’m hoping that learning goes well, I’m excited to order my car and get on the road!!
@@HolleeChantelle exciting stuff! I was a late learner and learning to drive seriously opened up a new life for me. You’ll need to update this comment when you pass.
Hi, My name is Camillo Leighio. I am from the uk. I have always liked the Toyota Yaris, I have been driving the Yaris since 2005 and I have never had any problems with it. I often see cars like the Ford Fiesta, vw polo and Renault Clio and they do look nice but the stories I hear about them breaking down and people have problems with them. Regards of the new Yaris, you can have both now, it looks great but it still maintains the excellent reliability from the previous generation. I know it starts at a high price but the amount of standard equipment you get and the efficient engine results in cheap ownership. Despite it not being the biggest in class, it still is big enough.
Thank you for sharing, Camillo. If you're thinking about getting a Yaris, we're more than happy to find you the most affordable solution 👍 Feel free to get in touch here: bit.ly/39YHCml
Excellent indepth review and analysis of this beautiful and gorgeous Toyota. Small auto with nice specs.
Thanks Ronnie, we're glad you liked it 👍
We pick our new one up in a couple of days, and am really looking forward to it. It'll be our third hybrid, and I don't understand why some don't like them.
Edit: We now have our New Yaris "Design", and am very pleased with it. We are mainly using it around town and are getting just over 61mpg.
We hope you enjoy your new car 👍
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply Thanks !
Ive never had a hybrid but tested a few - last shape Yaris, Lexus Ct200h, Hyundai ionic and really like the way they drive. Great round town economy which is what I mostly do these days.

It is 10 years by default warranty after the 3rd year standard warranty. But we need to do the inspection/maintenance in overprice dealership price. Fortunately the price is still the same in UK, but in Germany, Toyota dealership mark up the price 50% or more.
Very good review!
Thanks for watching Brian!
Great review, thorough and a reviewer who doesn’t feel the need to interpose his own personality, presumably because he has one with quirkiness. It’s about the car, thanks.
A good and very detailed review, but it's worth pointing out that the Android Auto - at least in UK models up to Design spec (not sure about the higher specs) - doesn't do wireless. You need a cable to use it. It's a bit of a pain having to plug in to navigate, but at least it keeps the phone charged...
Thanks for highlighting this Dave. Sadly wired Android Auto is still a thing with a lot of new cars!
Damn. you certainly are thorough. Well done, and thank you.

And today: Car of the Year 2021 💐 Toyota Yaris !!! 💐
Well deserved! 🎉🎉
You see what I wrote almost a year ago... but:
Eleven months ago we were very enthusiastic about the new Yaris Hybrid and planned to replace our then four and a half year old Yaris Hybrid with this new one in the summer. This choice seemed like a no-brainer!
Until we had a proper look in the showroom at our dealer and found out that the new Yaris is not exactly a practical car. Really a pity because we really were satisfied with our Yaris and liked what the new one looked like.
Shown here (from 23:47), is that the rear doors only open very limited. I would say a crack... With the driver seat arranged for me (1.83 m.) and when I squeezed myself in through that crack, I'm poking in the front seat with my knees....
Don't even think about installing a child seat through those doors and let's better not talk about getting a kid in that chair... 😠
We also had already thought of the new Honda Jazz Hybrid in the back of our minds and also watched the video, in which OSV tested the Jazz.
Among other things, we compared the space in the back of the Yaris in this video with what it looks like in the Jazz in this video: th-cam.com/video/Z8GL1tLXv48/w-d-xo.html (from 23: 18) Maybe watch from beginning till the end...😉
Than we decided to take both for an extensive test drive. Anyone who is faced with that choice should do so! And discover that good looks don't mean "the best".
Here the winner was clearly the Jazz: quieter, more comfortable, much better visibility, more space and "sense of space" because of the light interior and the big windows. Next to this the materials in the interior of the Jazz also gave a better "quality impression".
And let's better not talk about how practical the Jazz is compared to the Yaris....
If you compare the reviews, it is 100% clear that they confirm what we discovered during the test drives. And next to what I wrote here we concluded that of these two small hybrids, only the Jazz is suitable as a family car, the Yaris (unfortunately) not.
You can probably guess which car now is the successor of our Yaris...
Correct!!! For more than 5 months we have been driving with great pleasure and satisfaction in that spacious, comfortable and economical Jazz!
To be fair, very few pay for built navigation in this segment, why would they when you can take it with you and use it to navigate out of the car, too? No problem pre-downloading maps, I've been asking Toyoya sales members about Android Auto for years, finally, Toyota has got the message! Even my local Toyota dealership says that they sell virtually no built-in navigation.
It's just a bit odd having the button there, but the unit will be generic.
I've had a drive of the Design Hybrid, nice, but I think I'll miss "driving" over letting the CVT do it for me!
Great review - all very clever, but I get comparable MPG from my humble 2013 Jazz (47-51 mpg), and more than that with my previous two cars.
Thats where we are in a dilemma. Diesel cars are falling out of favour, petrol engines with any sort of decent power are typically poorer on MPG round town, it leaves hybrids as the only option apart from full EV status if you need decent economy out of a new car. Its sometimes wise to keep hold of an older car if it still works and does decent MPG, plus no monthly payments on one either if you owned it for years. Im scratching my head as to what car next for me. One I can keep for many years and do everything I need.
Thank you for an excellent review. Just one question- the word READY appears in green on the hybrid system indicator. What does this mean please?
Many thanks for watching! "Ready" mode comes on after pressing the start button, when it lights green it means the car is ready to be driven.
Thank you for your prompt reply. I thought that I might be missing the obvious. I was puzzled because it never goes off until the car is switched off. Thanks again.
Great review! I am about to go for this Yaris hybrid or the new Renault Clio hybrid but sure if getting any of these is a wise decision, considering that the car will only be driven at weekends. That means about 3000 miles a year max. Do I stick with the petrol model for the next 8 years before the ban? I've been warned that hybrid cars are best for regular users due to battery issues. What's your honesty opinion on this? Thanks in advance.

I own this Yaris and it doesn't matter if you drive on flat road or uphill as there is no resistance uphill either. Good acceleration too.
Hitch isn't standard on Yaris, so i got Toyota to mount a detachable one.
Nice little car, 3.3 litres/100, a bit hard over the bumps, all the gizmos, cruise controller, Radar etc, we drove for 9 hours straight, seats are okay but slightly on the hard side, plenty of head room, engine is a bit loud but passable, could not find a full electric that gave us the mileage without stressing about it, In Australia so a bit behind in this field...
Love your review! Somebody tell Toyota to bring this back tot he US please!
Thanks for watching! We hope the Yaris crosses the pond eventually 👍
Good review. I’ve just bought the Yaris Design, in the main very pleased, but SatNav and rear camera quality is third world set up.
Built quality lacks as inside there is a bit of a vibration through some panels on passenger side.
My mpg is very high as I only use locally, showing 84mpg.
Thanks for the feedback, Andrew. Great to hear that you're enjoying the Yaris 👍
Interesting to hear that you are also hearing vibration sound on passenger side....My car has been checked 4 times by the dealer. in the end it had to be returned
I wish Toyota would target the American market with this hybrid, i am not fond of prius (the cabin is uncomfortable for me) but love the yaris in its handling and cabin.
Hi, great review. Any idea what range in miles would a full tank give
Thanks for watching 👍 You'd get around 452 miles on a full tank dependent on weather conditions, driving style etc.
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply 👍👍
I've just bought the new GR Sport version. So far pretty impressive look/ride and performance.
Great to hear, Robert!
Good looking small car in that colour and spec.
I have always been a fan of Toyota and like the look of the new Yaris. However the Yaris along with other car brands of this size are way too expensive @ 20k plus. I know there is a lot of new technology gone in to the Yaris, but I believe a price range starting at 17k topping out at 20k (UK pounds) for the top model is what these small cars are worth. Also I have seen other videos of the Yaris that have commented on its poor build quality for example very thin bendy steel on the bodywork, the trim edge falling off the screen on the dash and the doors closing with a tinny clang. Surely the aforementioned are not worthy of a 20k plus Toyota. As usual a very informative review thankyou.
We're glad you found the review helpful, Phil. Many thanks for watching 👍
Ours will arrive next January though it'll be the current model with the 'binocular' dashboard and sadly not the one from the cross...
very nice comprehensive review rather than bullying the car just because its a small hatchback.
We certainly don't discriminate! Thanks for watching, glad you enjoyed the review 👍
there was also the toyota yaris eco van version in spain
amazing review i have ordered the excel model pictured here 1 thing im not keen on are the white seats why toyota dont offer an alternative i really dont know, its a real shame i will certainly be buying some seat covers when i get mine
Great to hear, Karl! We hope you enjoy your new Yaris and find great seat covers 👍
@@OsvUkVehicleSupply have gone for the gr sport In galactic blue variant delivery hopefully in mid march
I have recently taken delivery of the Excel model & been told by the Snows dealership that the height adjustable boot floor will be able as an optional extra. It will cost you £275.00 for one.
@Paul I agree, when you consider the EU version gets it as standard along with navigation, heated seats & steering wheel & a charging mat for your phone in the tray by the 12v socket, plus a boot release on the key fob. I think the UK version has been short changed for the money.
@@nickyfoulkes8476 In EU we don't get the wireless charger nor the navigation in standard either
I have just had an adjustable height boot floor fitted today to my Excel Yaris. The floor cost £395.00 Because of my original complaint to Toyota when I ordered the car Toyota paid to change the two side panels in the boot which adds the 2 centre supports for the new floor. These 2 side panels would have cost £400.0 per side. I f I had to pay for those as well it would not have happened. My Yaris is a rare & one off model in the UK. Possibly the only.
Very helpful review, somthing about the vehicle they should have named it Starlet instead of Yaris
very informative video, thank you! From what material does the curtain of the skyview is made?
Our pleasure, Georgias! Best to check this with your local Toyota dealer or contact the company directly via their website 👍

I would rather the new Toyota Yaris over the Vw Polo as the new Yaris looks much better, has just as a nice quality cabin.
You get more standard equipment with the yaris and there may be more space in the back and boot of the polo, that wont really bother me.
In terms of engines, the yaris is miles ahead from the polo. In the yaris, you get a 1.5 engine and in the polo, you get a 1.0. The yaris is not just more fuel efficient but it is cleaner too. The vw polo has 115 bhp with 107 c02 and the yaris has 114 bhp with 92 c02.

I just ordered my new Yaris in NZ, it will be arrive in Nov. I am a bit disappointed about the blind spots monitor wasn’t included in my basic hybrid version, while it is belongs to a safety point of view, cost of the basic hybrid version actually quite expensive in small car category😳😳
Hope you enjoy your new Yaris! What made you choose this model?
👍👍👍 Congratulation video
Nice car. What colour is it?. Pearl white or silver?. Thanks!
It's Silver 👍
Is it really that difficult/expensive/inconvenient to provide a map? Having a Map button that display a "No map" message is a big downer for me. I'd be willing to pay extra for GPS and a map display.

My daughter’s 100k miles 2010 1.0 yaris does 60+ mpg and is worth 2k. These new cars are beyond reach of many
Great video but just one observation: B mode in Toyota's ecvt has to be used for driving in downhill.. it uses the engine brake and dissipates the energy in order not to overload the battery. So it doesn't really charge the battery with the regenerative brake (that happends with the ecvt in D mode)
Many thanks for the feedback, Clara 👍
It's a pleasure, thank you for such a complete video!
Toyota sales people advise customers that the B mode is for extended downhill driving to allow additional regeneration instead of wasting energy with braking. Your explanation doesn't make too much sense. Perhaps you could explain how driving down hill can overload the battery.
@@davidbesant When going down long downhill stretches without B mode in use, when the battery is fully charged (doesn’t take long on the 2017 model with a 0.9 kWh one), one is back into friction braking, with the wear and tear and potential overheating, so it’s often wise to use B. I’m used to that on the previous one built in 2017. Incidentally, when using B, one can’t use cruise control in tandem - but it’s useful to maintain a steady speed downhill if it’s not steep enough to require B mode to be used.
@@johnkeepin7527 Personally, my daily drive to work is from about 355m to about 15m above sea level over 26kms. I've used B once when I bought my Toyota hybrid four years ago.
I tested the model and I found the ride comfortable
Thanks for your feedback 👍 What did you find uncomfortable about the ride?
Amazingly satisfying design . An absolute classic. As good as Porsche .

I'm looking for a small, affordable car like this which would be a hybrid. However, I do not need recharge based hybrid. I need gas based car which can also be plugged to an electrical socket to be recharged in in order to get that 15% price compensation from the government. All the other plug in gas hybrids tend to be universal cars which are bigger and more roomy, but they are also more expensive. Since this car will be just for myself for foreseeable future, I do not need extra space, because I have to pay for it extra.
This car even with its new hybrid engine doesn't seem to meet this criteria which is a shame. The closest cars are in 30,000 euro range and mostly still not available in Lithuania. I'm talking about cars like Toyota Prius Prime.
This may be the first gen of Yaris whose pilot isn't always a shrunken 90+ year old git who can barely see over the dashboard whilst holding up a line of cars and moving at a max of 22 MPH. In fact, my 40 year old neighbour has just ordered a top of the range model as a replacement for his Peugeot 208 automatic.
Do these not have battery problems, its all over the internet.
Non hybrid 1.0 litre is available elsewhere in low trim level.
Thank goodness the front seats decline with a lever, how is winding a rotary wheel over and over better? Can anyone explain why winding a wheel be a better solution?
I thought the same, I find the lever much better.
Yaris will out live his counterparts
What kind of un evolved ape prefers wheel adjustment for seat inclination vs the alpha chad lever that lets you go from laid back to upright in a second vs smacking your knuckles into the floor for 2 minutes just to see your S.O. come back from what she was doing and have to do it all over again
maps on phones can continue navigation without a phone signal... it uses gps like the car sat nav would...
It does use GPS for positioning, but your map app doesn't have the entire map downloaded. The map is pulled using the phone data. You can save area's of the map, or routes. But if you went into the middle of no where without planning, when your phone loses network signal, you can use a GPS app to see your co-ordinates sure, but the map app will not be able to download the roads. Other wise map aps would be huge. It's all cached.
Side point, I watched an Australian review this yaris and they get satnav included.
Previous Yaris models 'lacking fizz'? We had a 2001 Yaris T-Sport and it went really well, 0-60 in under 9 secs which is faster than this new one.
Too bad that the Prius C got discontinued in 2019. The 2021 model would have been a game changer.
How do you get all this information it’s incredible!
A magician never reveals his secrets! 😂👍
Seeing a few about now. It’s a nice looking little car. Better than a boring Polo anyway
The Polo is a dreadful dreary car. I pass a VW dealer every day on way to work and it bores me senseless just looking at it. Even the Golf R is rubbish. Quick but bland, has no character whatsoever, much like every other VW. I got a new Polo in 2012, last shape of course. Worst new car to date. All sorts wrong with it and terrible handling. According to Gov website, the reg number doesnt exist now. Probably been written off.
I love mine.
I love the new yaris
