1.4 v 1.2 TSI in a Polo?
If your choice of engine was between a Volkswagen 1.4 petrol and a Volkswagen 1.2 TSi petrol, which one would you go for in terms of longterm reliability? I'm thinking of owning for a minimum of 5 years.

As far as I know the Polo is not offered with a 1.4TSI; only the awful old 1.4 16v that is a problem engine, so I'd go for the modern 1.2TSI 105.
Our honest used car pricing is a little bit different to all the others. You can get to our values through make or model - you don’t have to follow a prescribed route. Plus, it’s live, which means we can react to changes in the market quicker than any printed price guide.
