[QUOTE="xenithon, post: 900122, member: 467"] Where are you based? If up in Gauteng or elsewhere inland I would strongly suggest something with a turbo or similar. Naturally aspirated small-engine cars are positively anemic if not at the coast. Also is automatic a requirement? Apart from the Polo (agree re hijack risk) others worth looking at are the Ford Figo and Fiesta (both come with a 999cc turbo engine IIRC). The Renault Clio also ticks all the boxes and from owners I know it?s far more reliable than its historical reputation suggests, and parts are not expensive (VW parts as an example can be ludicrous these days).
