This is true I have a petrol tfsi vrs and is a good allround car but has no character at all. I am thinking Swift sport or Twingo 133 next or getting a yaris t sport again! But out of the choices you have put I would have a petrol vrs

My car 56 reg tfsi VRS has used 3l of oil in the last 6K this has got to be over the top! No leaks or gunk and no smoke loss of power ect. Usualy just cruseing along at between 50-70 on not thrashed. What can be up? Realy thinking something aint right and thinking of a change of car. Graeme

I do about 3/400 miles a week and its on long life I alway top it up with the corret oil and there is some times a bit of white on the filler cap but just when the car is not being used much and not getting up to temp. Graeme

If she has it in black and white that har contract states 24 hours thats what she should be doing. They can change her contract to less hours but it needs to be writen notice usualy 12 weeks. She should have a company handbook that should have some info in there. Hope this helps

You have the same opinion as me Sonner wanted to back to toyota for years since I had a Yaris T Sport when they came out and that was a little beast and such fun to drive. Rwd is ok as I rally a 170bhp Hillman Avenger and the other half is handy behind the wheel. Yeh the facelift models had a few tweeks and an lsd also. Think I am due a midlife crises next year lol Still like grr666 5 thou DOH Graeme -
