Group1 Used VW Cars For Sale
To help you make a decision, we’ve compiled a short review of our used VW cars for sale. As always, if you would like more information, please don’t hesitate to contact your nearest Group1 branch in the Western Cape, Eastern Cape or Gauteng. Let’s start with the Volkswagen Polo Vivo which is available in various models.
Used VW Polo Vivo For Sale
The Volkswagen Polo Vivo continues to be a very popular car in South Africa exceeding all expectations in terms of sales and customer satisfaction. Whether it’s a used VW Polo Vivo hatchback or sedan, Group1 has you covered as we have several models available across the country.
The VW Polo Vivo not only looks sleek but also offers a smooth driving experience with loads of smart design and handy features. We have two engine options available at the moment in the 1.4-litre and 1.6-litre producing 55 kW and 63 kW respectively. While not as powerful as a GTI or its bigger 2.0-litre siblings, the Polo Vivo offers enough grunt for urban driving and cruising the highway.
The Polo Vivo has more digital features than any other small car in its category, including a 340G radio with SD, USB, Bluetooth, App-Connect with B-sting or 2 speakers and 2 tweeters which are optional on the Comfortline. The VW Polo Vivo Highline, GT and Maxx get all of these features plus 4 speakers and 2 tweeters as standard.
App-Connect allows you to access your iPhone/CarPlay screen, selected apps, maps and music through simple syncing with the infotainment system. That means you can sing along to your favourite tunes while driving to work or the daily school run.
The Polo Vivo may look like a small car but there is more than enough head and legroom, boot space and comfortable seats for everyone unless a giraffe is hitching a ride. And, despite not having all the bells and whistles of the more expensive Golf’s, like electric windows and a smaller display screen, the VW Polo Vivo is still one of the best, most reliable and economical options for the budget car market.
Everything about the Polo Vivo makes it an ideal first car or for students, young professionals and even small families. Here is a list of used VW Polo Vivo models to consider:

Used VW UP! For Sale
In today’s economic climate, who doesn’t love a small car filled to the brim with style and personality? The VW Up checks all the boxes of a small, compact, reliable and affordable car perfectly suited for busy urban streets and squeezing into tight parking spots nobody else can. If you’re looking for space, though, you’re probably better off with the bigger Polo Vivo or VW Tiguan, depending on your requirements and driving needs.
Even though the VW Up! may not be the best family car, it is tailor-made for students, as a first car or for city dwellers looking to manage bumper-to-bumper traffic with ease. And, considering the price when looking at a used VW Up! for sale, it certainly makes a good case for those on a tight budget that needs a car with low running costs and good fuel economy.
Don’t let the small 1.0-litre 3-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine fool you as it may seem underpowered but it delivers 55 kW and 95 Nm of torque. If you take into account the car weighs less than a feather, it’s quite zippy and shows a lot of grunt for its size. Paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox, it has a claimed fuel-efficiency rate of between 3.6 and 4.6 L/100km which makes it very economical.
Not long after the VW Up launched in 2015, Volkswagen revealed a facelifted version in 2016 which came to South Africa in 2017. It included four new variants to the Up! Range, including the Take up!, Move up!, up! Beats and the Cross up! All the models were based on the 5-door and no longer the 3-door variants. Here are the VW Up! models you should consider from Group1 Cars:
- 2017 Volkswagen Up! Take 1.0 5-Door
- 2015 Volkswagen Up! Move 1.0
- 2015 Volkswagen Up! Club 1.0
