Volkswagen Taigo review | VW's posh Polo in-depth! 

So glad you mentioned retirees, because I'm thinking this would be a perfect car for my mother and it does seem to be the market its aimed at, good looking, economical, big boot, decent inside, nice controllable power for a pensioner. Great review 👍

Vw must wonder why they gave you a top spec car. Surely they had a 800cc 2 cylinder version with manual gearbox, steel wheels and vynal seats that would be more your and everybody else's budget

I’ve been driving one for a week in Mallorca. My first time driving a 3 cyl VW - or any VW. Really enjoying it! Completely agree - TopGear are talking guff about the engine - it’s quiet & the 110 manual I’ve been driving is a pleasure to drive. I really like the internal finish. The one thing I don’t like vs a Toyota, is that with the Toyota, I can set the Adaptive Cruise Control and it auto stops behind a stationary car - the VW seems to prompt you to brake. Overall, a nice clean interior, good road-keeping & an efficient and quiet engine. I’m really impressed. Obviously the R-Line is an unnecessary option. I’ll have to check out the Polo and T-Cross to see the differences

Mark. Proper review. As you know, big VW supporter, by why oh why? Lifestyle? Golden early retirees? And an Up GTi has more BHP! Nope, it's a duff VW! Wrong on all levels.

Great review Mark. R Line big money. Rav4 territory with that price.

Shocking price for this to be honest and a pointless model. My sister has a T-Roc with a 150hp engine and it’s quick! Plus the smaller T-Cross suits the 110HP engine.I honestly can’t see VW sell much of these in the R-line spec at 40K 👀 great review again Mark 👍🏻

Great review, subscribed

VW need to make up their collective minds’ on styling, function and drivetrain.

great review!

It;s a pity we can't have the 150hp model here in Ireland. Got the 110hp a couple of months ago and still pretty agile so can't complain. Anyway, knowing how the petrol prices are these days better stick to this 110 :D. - Ah, by the way it's not 40K, close enough but not quite. Mine had a few extras (alloys, rear camera..) and was almost 36.

Nobby Funny watching the kid in the gold Landcruiser eye balling you. he must be a strawberry alarm clock fan 🤣

Think it looks great, but I wouldn't trade my Passat for one

Saw Bob's review of this a few months ago and interested to hear your take on it which as ever is very good. I think even though it's a top of the range, for what you get it's not great value for money, indeed I'd say poor value for money. I think the 1.5 is available in the UK but probably not in Ireland. I also don't see the point in it Vs a Polo or indeed the T Cross. Too expensive for what it is I think.

5:57 Lady in Prado appreciates the car 😎

Not quite as attractive as the similarly priced Pug 308 reviewed last week???

seems like the new cross polo?

Am I the only one that thinks an R version of this would be crazy fun?

How tf does Volkswagen make this th inf and the T-Roc and then give the US neither of them to instead give them the Taos?

R Line Spec 40k car with manual AC & Handbrake? With a glass roof? It just seems wrong! It's a pass from me!

Why do we have this when we already have the T-Cross and T-Roc? Imagine paying 40k for a car with a manual handbrake!

Way to expensive for what you get. For that price I would want an EV

DSG only comes with the 110ps engine. The 95ps only comes with a 5 speed box and rear drum brakes. Homework please

The dash is exactly the same as my 221 style polo, air con etc, media, displays even the 95hph….but that car is not worth €40000

Another VW I can live happily without.

It's so dull. And expensive!!!! I would choose Arkana over this anytime. And I will spare money for two vacations! :)

Stupid stupid stupid. This should have been an EV

These coupe suv's must be the most pointless class of car ever. Style over substance completely, and its not even nice style.
