About to become the proud owner of a Aygo X-Clusive

[Camzio]

I will be picking up my 2014 X-Clusive on Wednesday and I'm so excited. 

After the second break down of my mk1 Audi TT, it has become uneconomical for me to fix and use it as my day to day runner. That's not to say it won't be fixed, my son is going to use it for his track car but it will take some time before it gets to that point. 

My decision to purchase came down to two candidates, the VW up and the Aygo. I had read some negative feedback on the Up, gearbox and clutch issues. As my TT had several clutch related issues including the pedal snapping in rush hour traffic, I didn't want to go down that route again. 

I read about the clutch issues with the mk1 Aygo but I believe this has been rectified in the mk2.

In the past we had a Celica and my daughter has a Yaris, which has been indestructible. On test driving the Aygo it was a no brainer, the steering was planted, it was extremely nippy and overall a very satisfying drive. Needless to say we purchased there and then. 

Ok power wise it is not the TT, never will it be but as most of my driving is in rush hour traffic this is perfect. 

So roll on Wednesday, can't wait to start driving again.
