THE POLO HAS been the best small car around for three years now. It leads the class in just about every area, with superb interior quality, good space inside and the sort of ride you’d expect from an executive car. Its specification is far from stingy in our preferred SE spec, while the 1.0-litre turbo engine is punchy from low revs yet remarkably economical. To cap it all, pricing is sensible and resale values are strong.
