Good write up. I booked a Polo for our vacation in Croatia in September, with no guarantee of getting a specific car. They were out, and we got a new Fiat Punto, same vehicle class. It was pretty much exactly as you describe the Polo, although ours was a 1.4 l gasoline model, from memory. We had a Fiesta last time we were in Italy, also a 1.4 litre model. I enjoy all of them, particularly on European roads.
