- Hey bo maseve!
The Polo GTI is probably the greatest hot hatch we have, but the exorbitant pricing might deter many consumers. It is almost faultless, but a dream car for many might now be too unattainable. Nonetheless, for me, it is a dream.
This vehicle might not be fully kitted but even at R560k, it’s a lot. Perfect car nonetheless.

Im a simple man… Reba uploads I watch💯❤️
When you have no one to compete with, you can put the price you want.
Yup 😂😂😂
But R600k is the indicative price for a hatchback with 200 hp even the I20 n sells for R580k in Europe
I almost skipped the ads then remembered Gucci is needed
Me too , watched all ads until the end

As an owner of this car, yes it is a bit pricey but it’s totally worth it. Besides the points mentioned in the video as to why it’s a great car, it also retains its value in the long run.
It devalues heavily if you put miles on it.
I agree with you, personalty, I would buy the golf 7 r for the price, VW in general are getting way too expensive
I subscribed to this channel because of "Dumelani Bomasebe" I don't know what it means but she says it nicely. Best car reviewer we have
Usually the word is used by the two families “in laws” referring to one another substituting names.
@@vutivihitlermhlanga7672 oh in Zulu they call it "sebele". Thanks for information 🙏🙏🙏
@@nkululekobiyela1978 we learn every day.
@@vutivihitlermhlanga7672 yah
Price is insane for the whole package!!
I 'd get golf 7 gti with that price
overpriced average car really
Cars in general are expensive these days. With R600k I'd probably get a used 3 series.
Yes they are expensive.
Muzi sambo would have told you that's your opinion and won't tell you what to do with your money
Then spend 20k every month fixing this 3 series
VW and AUDI are becoming big headed. Chinese are going to humble them
@@terrenceshalang8669 oh man, I look forward to the day that happens.
that Shinyori introtook me by surprise🤣🤣 vomaseve
Not the only car in its segment in SA.
We still have its cousin that went to private school, the Audi A1 40TFSI.
And then we also have the mini cooper S.
😂😂😂I really want to see Reba's Playlist,great review Mamas
Rea gal u my favorite 🎉❤🎉❤🎉❤receiving your notification is something special I'm a truck driver but whenever I got notifications from your channel I pack out side of the road💔😭😭😭😭😭

If one is hell bent on buying brand new then the Polo GTI is the only option that makes sense at that price point. If we take second hand cars into consideration then one can look at the Golf 7 GTI/R, BMW m135/128ti/m140, Audi S3/RS3. Personally I would choose a second hand BMW m135 or 128ti.
Yup. It’s the only car at this price. I just wanted a little more for the money.
Totally agree with your final rating. Overall great car, as is expected of a GTI, but there’s a huge disconnect between the car and the price tag.
I can never spend my money like that...I'd rather put extra bucks and buy a whole new TIGGO 8 PRO MAX 2.0T AWD MY23* R732 000.
Now you talking will rather go and see Chinese specially Tiggo 8 Pro🎉🎉 or H6 Haval
As a young man in his early 20s, if I opt to buy a GTI, I'm well aware of cheaper cars in the market but am also very intentional about the GTI. It's not cheap but it's definitely fun
@AdamRaseroka you must be a Cherry salesperson. Because making a statement like that makes no sense. Two completely different cars with Massive price difference😂
No I'm not a Sales rep, I'm saying with the same budget, wud rather go for Chery tiggo8 pro not Max just Pro
That tiggo 8 pro is beautiful
is makes a good buy for young generations.. power ✅ looks✅ perfomance✅. bit pricey but this is just perfect
It’s so perfect
Polo gti will still remain in my heart whether Volkswagen can price it at 2million I will confidently buy it❤❤❤
Fair
That song yooh is still a hit by far Dr T Chauke. VW polo GTi “Boity”
Please do a review on a Jeep Wrangler (Rubicon or Safari), maybe even share a short description of their differences if possible.
Cars are generally expensive these days , I think it’s value for money
Hey Reba,
1. You can flip the gear lever left to put it to manual for it not to go back to auto
2. Its usually has keyless, you got the lemon 🤣
Yes its very expensive still though. Great vid.
Loving this review, glad I discovered this channel
Holding back the years 🎶as your jam while cruising in this makes perfect sense for me too we Reba😂😂🙇🏾♂️🤝🏾
VW pricing is absolutely ridiculous anyways even now they recently applied a price increase across all their fleet, we still have a toxic relationship with them though especially with the GTI's we're still buying them. It's really expensive for what it is you can really get a decent Golf 7.5 with that money, yes it's a more than 5 years old model but you'll still have the practicality and fun with it
They'll soon cry tears. If Suzuki ups their game and establish a plant here, improved engines and all the you'll see. Ask Nissan, no one is immune.
Reba, I'll tell you now car prices are ridiculous! Awa rather bump up the price a bit and get a Haval H6 entry model. Bigger car, much better tech, and way better looks❤ Your reviews are helping many of us out here, can you please give us more and don't forget the laughs.😅
You growing in me now ❤❤. Love your Videos Ngwana waBhuti🤗🤗
Its my 1st time tuning in to your videos and am impressed 💯♥️you just gained a new sub 🎉
The intro 😍😍😍Dr Thomas Chauke
The intro by Dr Thomas Chauke na Shinyori Sisters "wo tiyisela"🔥👌👏
That Shinyori intro made me fall in love with this Channel more ❤🤞💃💃
We need the review of the GOLF 8 GTI from you
You are correct Reba...R600k is a bit much for a Polo. And with the facelift, one expects some tweaks also to the engine....same 160kW tune as the G7 GTi would have been nice. But....they have no competition, so it makes them feel in control and without a challenge. I would opt for a low Mileage G7 GTi for that money.
Out insurance should sponsor you this is a second video hearing mentioning them. Nice vid.
😂😅
Hi Reba's, I just love ur job...
Hi Reba, thanks for these reviews! Could you please adjust the sound of the videos, the intro/song clip is too loud, while the rest of the video volume is low.
I think in motion the car drowns the sound. I’ll check it out. Thank you :)
@@RebaSCars I’m actually referring to the sound of the intro clip that you use on all your videos, the one that shows your animations and pictures shuffled, that’s the clip that’s too loud. I hope I’m making sense, thanks.
@musanziyane6616 yes 100% main intro vid is very high volume
Very nice review 👌 for R600K i'd go for golf 7.5/R, bmw M135i/M140i,previous generation of the polo the AW is still a good option a fully spac one, hyundai i30N then maybe a Mercedes benz A250
Having owned a polo tsi for a couple of months now I think the side of this hatch back is not bad its not an suv but bit practical, looking to upgrade to this or golf 7.5 gti
This is proper.
What a great starting song for a very desired can among the young ones. Unfortunately they don't listen to these kind of music. If they did they would make better choices. Many buy these with a Polo Vivo budget actually and suffer the consequences in the end.
Hi Reba , thanks for such a beautiful content. Personally I would still go for the Polo GTI than the Golf 7.5. Its the peace of mind you get from the brand new car than a used golf with 50k mileage and 5years old, secondly its the technology that comes with car, the IQ lights, the heated seats , the climate controls, the upgraded steering wheel and lastly you have a latest car in case you wanna trade it in 2 years time.
Ouchea singing my favorite song. Love your reviews❤
My first purchase after winning Powerball 🔥 💰🙌🏾
I am with you there... Definitely my first purchase too 🤞🏽😎💵😂
I need to win Powerball twice to get this…lol
Cold Monday ❤❤
My Polo GTI now avg. 5.9L/100KM... when I bought it new in 2019 I used to avg. 9.7L/100KM. It's all about how you drive, heavy foot means heavy fuel costs. I beg to differ on looks though as I prefer my 2019 model with no haptic/touch bollocks for the steering wheel or aircon. Keyless entry is an option btw, I got mine for free from VW because they messed up my order back in the day. About the KW output, overseas they have 152KW and we got stuck with the origianl 147KW due to our crap fuel quality.
Amazing review! You've outdone yourself once again. I'm concerned about the spec of the exact car you reviewed, it's so basic. The push start button can be optioned, the haptic touch steering wheel has been replaced with press buttons recently . In overall I get your point, At R600k it's uncomfortable getting too close to the Golf GTI which is a bigger car. Nice review!
aaaahhhhh look at Reba's smile hle banna...😊😊❤❤
Hey Reba I love your reviews so much... If it's possible please do some Honda Civic Type R review sometime in the future.

I like how you started this video! " Thomas Chauke"--Wo Tiyisela
Best intro maseve😂🔥
Best car review i ever watch ❤
You and pointsmen 😆, Reba.
3:22 I like how you emphasised the smallanyana sunroof🤣😂
Love your choice of cars, big ups lady 👊
😂here for the singing and laughter ❤. It makes the whole thing worth watching.
😂😂😂❤️❤️❤️
Haai no this Polo GTI is beautiful modimo mara price ke problem Rebza😮😂
Best review, spot on. VW must improve in terms of technology and lower their pricing. Economy is not good and there are many alternatives out there, good example, Chinese cars
Not a fan of this car but just here so I can experience RebaS
So I’m not the only who thought you’re mrhowmuch’s PA😂? Love your reviews 💯
I am not
Nice review reba. Can we pause and talk about a Std POLO TSI and Vivos which are Average family cars in SA😅. Why is it that when it’s a GTI, it is suddenly small etc. It’s still a POLO 🥰
I think I felt it cos I had a full house of adults in here. With kids it should be way better
No Comment on this...Also ke kopa oska bua yaloa ka SWIFT Sport tu, i quite like that car. Hi Reba 🥰
Going purely with what you said, if a new S3,never mind RS3, starts at R1 110 500, surely that could justify this coming at exactly half that. Bit cramped yes but solid perfomance and build quaility. Unless we make a case for all ludicrous pricing be reviewed. Love the channel, feels like a home cooked meal.
I think cars are very expensive in general. This is a perfect car. I think I wish it was more attainable. Circa R500k fully kitted
@@RebaSCars Same here, considering it.
What's best a Polo GTI or a Golf GTI? But for me it's the Golf GTI but my issue with it is the Theft Part.
But other than that, I love the GTI❤
gurrrl breath when you speak😂 but a beautiful video and I love your vibe when doing your vlogs
YOH you took those lyrics to the butchery and did the most of them hey, they are now mince meat the way you did them lol
I’m so sorry 🤣😭
Goodluck on buying an abused, hammered 2nd hand Golf 7.5. The street attention will always go to the latest model. And yes, you buy a GTi for the streets, nothing else
If I want a Polo. I'd rather buy the R-line kit. Just for the look. 😊😊. Of course I won't have the same performance as the GTI. But it looks very pretty. Buying a second hand sports car is a risky transaction. Because GTI are mostly hammered.
I know people who’ve not had much of a bad experience… so it’s all a variable
I just got a quotation for insurance for the polo gti, and the cheapest was R3508. All the way to R5k. Hectic.
It does have keyless entry and push button start
Fun fact it does the same 0-100 km/h with the 6C ......6.7 secs so you are right very little evolution with double the price.
I’m starting to strongly belief that Reba s cars and “the mysterious PA” from “mr How much” is the same person👀
No. I am not. Please stop commenting this.
I would get myself into a decent low mileage F30 LCI 340i without thinking twice 🤞🏾struuu
My dear Reba am also a VW polo GTi fan, but given an opportunity to buy a car with R600 000.00 I rather buy a Jaecoo 7 because I have a family. Currently am driving polo 8 Highline DSG and previouslyo I was driving polo bujwa 😅
Reba is not married guys... how?? mzanzi please do some justice to the lady. ke tla tloha Lesotho Mona atseba?😂😂❤❤ great content delivery girl!!
I agree with you on this one, for the price I’d buy myself a golf 7.5gti, or even stretch the budget a bit more and get a used golf 8gti
You lost me there with the keyless entry but i got u
GTI is a nice hatchback in this segment but I wish we could have a manual variant. The car looks sexy though
💯
That particular one u reviewing its not a 2024, from late 2023 vw doesn't use touch sensitive buttons on the steering wheel. Mine is a keyless nd has front nd rear cameras. Overseas the same car has over 147kw and u can't compare this with a 6c, this is more like a golf just bit smaller nd detuned, I owned both. After specking mine went just over R620k. I don't think the price is the problem but rather what u get for the price in terms of built quality and extras
I still think R620k is a lot considering where this car is. The one abroad does a little more than ours. (152kW)
I’m just speaking from a value perspective. It’s expensive but they could make a lot more features standard, like a reverse camera and maybe blind spot monitors etc. at this price, it is steep but the car is absolutely perfect. Just think it’s pricey.
@@RebaSCars true
@@RebaSCars true
Did Mr.Howmuch just pass you at 1:17 with Range Rover? 😒💀😅
Almost skipped an ad 😅😅😅
R560k for a polo is a lot. For me, I’d probably go for a demo Kia Sportage or T-Roc. They not be as fun as the GTI but they will be fast enough.
Maybe I’m biased as I’m a family man
Got mine for R420K, pre facelift , and its still good , paying way less .
I agree that car prices are a bit steep because of economy and all, I'm okay with that but my issue with VW is that they'll increase the price twice a year but not features or at least benefits that come with their cars. Just look at the price of the Polo GT for example, 350k and you still don't improved safety features.
Avuxeni maseve. Review ya lit
For that price tag nna personally I'd go for a demo Haval H6GT which would cost me +- 590K
Hi, im just interested in something. Which microphone do you use for your videos??
Only SA models still have 147kw and 6 speed dsg. Overseas models have 152kw with 7 speed dsg
Not only SA. All markets get 147kw except Europe. Check Australian reviews. 147kw 320nm 6speed DSG
There were no ads, though. Good review terrible price's 😅
There is a difference in the latest Polo GTI. Some come with no sunroof. Some dont. Further goes with the Keyless Start, some are Key Start. Some have Alcantara Interior. Some have Nappa Leather.
So hence the pricing. Its also quite expensive for the local production to manufacture. The Economy is killing all industries...
For a 600k, I will probably buy a swift and a suv/ bakkie in the second hand market
Pre-face lift looks better can we agree on that
Fair enough!
Mrs Mabena Reba❤🎉💍
Mine has keyless entry and keyless start, and the reverse camera. It's part of the "DSG Safety Pack" extra I think.
How much is the instalment plus insurance?
@@knowledgethamaga9281 Insurance is paid by the company I work for, I don't know how much. Installment is R11k, no balloon. The car has all the extras, except for the discover media.
Driving this back to back with a with a Swift Sport, the swift is a proper driver's car, very fun to drive but unless you're a petrolhead swift sport haena that street cred as you said so GTi ke GTi bafwethu...😅
uhmm Reba, if youv'e ever had to buy a new dsg gearbox on your brand new vw gti you'd appreciate that rav limiter,
Awesome review 🎉🎉
because you were singing a song by Thomas Chauke I am going to subscribe
I have to disagree on the price. R600K for what the Polo GTI engine offers is quite reasonable. Considering the segment below it of i20s, 208s, and Polos has crossed R400K. Cars are just expensive but in terms of Value for money the Polo GTI wins imo
Great 🔥👌
Oh my gosh no I have to ask , 😭😭 I know you always throw a few Tsonga phrases around here and there 😂 but do you have Tsonga roots or something because how are you singing one of the most iconic songs by Dr Thomas Chauke ?!? 😭😭😭❤️
Zero Tsonga roots 🤣🤣
But comparing a polo to an SUV is not fair don’t you think ? Mean it’s a mini hatch in its segment it’s actually big enough …..😅😅
