Replaced a 10 year old Volkswagen Polo with a Taigun 1.0 TSI MT

Been driving the car for 3 years and being an enthusiast myself, I knew I wouldn't settle for a non-fun to drive car.

Replaced our 10-year-old Polo with a Taigun:

Hello members,

We had a Volkswagen Polo with the least enthusiast engine, the 1.2 petrol Highline. The car started showing its age and came up with huge maintenance bills. We decided to upgrade to something better. Been driving the car for 3 years and being an enthusiast myself, I knew I wouldn't settle for a non-fun to drive car. Being a keen reader of this Taigun forum, it helped me gather confidence for this product. All said and done, got a good exchange price for the Polo and a good discount on the Taigun Topline TSI MT Curcuma Yellow.

We got the car delivered on the auspicious day of Gudi Padwa. Took the delivery and went straight to the mandir for Puja. Had a Taigun Highline AT in front of ours!

Well, not all things end well.

The very next day driver's side window refused to roll down. Tried multiple times, and it rolled down and stopped mid-way. I was surprised and disappointed as to what went wrong. Took the car to the service center and they diagnosed it with a faulty window winder motor.

Anyways, they have put the order for the part and would receive it within 3-5 business days. Meanwhile, they closed the window and advised me to not roll down.

I'm okay with the issue as it could definitely be a manufacturing defect and the service guys completely accepted it and handled the situation very professionally.

Till now the car has done only 160 kms and I'm yet to experience the true potential of a TSI engine.

Any questions related to purchasing or overall experience are welcomed.
