Hi all,
I will be picking UP! myGroove UP! in Deep Black Pearl tomorrow after work.
This is my first VW. I traded in my 2006 Seat Ibiza DAB edition which I owned from new and got £1700 for on part exchange. It had a number of advisories from the garage after narrowly passing its MOT, which is what prompted the trade in for a new car.
My choices of a new car were limited as my budget is stretched paying for my wife's year-old car and still paying off my student loan. The UP!'s cheap running costs are the reason I settled on the car, along with all the positive reviews online. I didn't test drive, so i've no idea what to expect.
I drive to work and back every day (30 mile round trip) travelling on the dual carriage way for most of the journey. Given this car is meant for the city, I'm apprehensive at how it's going to cope at 70mph most of the time?
One thing I immediately gleaned from this car, is that it appears to have bags of character.
Does anyone else use their UP! for motorway / dual carriage way driving, and do I have any reason to worry?
Cheers
Mat
