Volkswagen Fox reviews

Does what it says on the tin over the last 9 years. Never broken down or let me down, 48 mpg but only drive locally ( 65k miles over 13 years)

A smooth runner with surprising amount of space inside although the boot is on the small side.

Excellent run around car for the city person-student to get from A to B, easy parking and very economical on petrol. Recommend the Volkswagon Urban Fox for newly qualified drivers.

The fox is ideal for my needs. I am normally in the car on my own and use it for shopping and social uses. It has quite a large boot for a small car and also the option to lower the back seats for more space for larger items. I have had no problems with the car since I bought it new and would recommend it to anyone who required a small hatchback.

This is the second Fox that I have owned, the first was an ex demonstrator and this one brand new. I wanted low cost and reliable motoring. I was also looking for a less sophisticated car than some - again with the emphasis on reliability - less to go wrong! The Fox has fulfilled my aim. I do a mixture of local and motorway driving most weeks and find it economical and comfortable. I sometimes take the grandchildren in the car and only then would a four door car be preferable. With the back seat down there is more than ample space for trips to the rubbish tip etc. Over the years I have also owned a couple of other, much older, VW's and have always found the local VW agent, where they have been serviced, efficient, pleasant and helpful. For anyone looking for a small car, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend the Fox.

I am absolutely over the moon with my Urban Fox and have had no cause for complaint since I bought it in May 2008. It looks good and IS good. I don't intend to trade it in as VW don't manufacture the Fox anymore.
