Volkswagen cars recommended for new drivers

Examples of VW Polo and Up cars sold here

The Volkswagen Up is the perfect first car. It’s enjoyable to drive thanks to a very smooth ride, alert handling and excellent attention to detail. It’s style and top end build quality give it the edge over other vehicles in the new driver’s car category. The VW Up is both practical to drive and affordable to run. In just a few words it’s the perfect car for the first time driver. The Up shares it’s chassis and a majority of components with the Seat Mii. If you’re not too hung up about the VW badge, it’s definitely worth looking the the Seat Mii as an almost identical alternative

The Volkswagen Polo has been a popular first car since it’s launch in 1975. Over the decades the Polo has matured into the perfect balance of car for the new driver. Easy to handle, cheap to run and insure. Most popular as a first car are the VW Polo 4th generation from 2002 to 2009 and the 5th generation from 2009 to 2017. From the 4th generation the 1.2 E (60ps) 3 door is cheap to insure being rated insurance group 3 only. As with any car, make sure you check the specific model before completing a purchase – some Polo are classified in insurance group 11 like the 1.4 E TDI (70ps) 5d .
