    - NVH can be improved especially during rain (noise from roof, engine, tyres
    - Light coloured interior (beige) doesn't mix well with kids holding Milo drinks. Safe to say that my beige interior is now Milo-ish colour

    I bought the VW Polo Sedan as a replacement for my Suzuki Swift and I have absolutely no regrets at all. After numerous comparisons to its competitors, I knew that this was the car to have. Plus with the CKD launched, the price has dropped making it more value for money. Let's not forget, despite the fact that it is a CKD model, the car still f[...]
    All things aside the looks and power department could do with a little more work. It's a case of B+. Nearly there but not quite.

    - Looks are abit plain. Loses out to the more futuristic City and Vios
    - Engine isn't going to win you a drag race but it trundles along nicely if you aren't a speed demon. However it could do with a little more g[...]

    After more than 1 year of using the Cruze, I think the fuel consumption is average for the 1.8 liter "eco" engine (RM90 for routine short distance use per week from Putrajaya to Bandar Baru Bangi).

    2) Excellent NVH level during average speed (during non[...]
    1) Acceleration not as fast as other 1.8 liter C-Segment cars due to heavy body frame and non-turbocharged engine.
    2) Handling mechanism is average on curvy roads. Preve and Japanese C-segment cars handle better.
    3) Hard non leather stock seat. Got to put custom leather to make it comfortable.
    4) My variant (Cruze LT Sport Edition) come with [...]
