Volkswagen (VW) Polo and GTI owners have earned quite the unenviable reputation in Mzansi.
Among the tags given to them are those of being notoriously bad drivers and untrustworthy relationship cheats.

So, when an X user, @Mr_PeterM, turned to the streets for advice for a friend who wanted the popular brand for himself, Mzansi had plenty to say.
Captioning a photo of a red Polo GTI, he wrote:
"A friend who just got a permanent job wants this car. He's young and likes going to grooves. Please give him advice as [a] true friend."
The can of worms was well and truly opened, and the X streets were energised to dig into it, making for interesting chatter.
This saw enthusiastic locals chime in — both for and against the buy. All things considered, it made for a lively comments section as they fired it up.

The commentary was expectedly hilarious, with some netizens egging on the purchase while others, understandably, voted against it.

@StaxGoldman added:
"Get a Toyota Witz instead. You will be cash-flow richer and can spend money on nice food without getting hijacked."
