Imran Khan Sold His Ferrari For VW Polo GT| History on Wheels | S2 EP15

[@ThePianoceiver]

I really enjoyed this. As 90% of young men in India whose car budgets are usually within 5 - 15L, this is so relatable and refreshing to see that someone who probably CAN afford buy a big spanking, fancy, obscene luxury dump of a car has instead matured, evolved and developed a more sensible and genuine thirst for car ownership, discovery of the machine and exploration. You can feel that he is honest with himself and not looking to make flashy statements but has found that enthusiast vibe and the keen sense for learning, caring for the car. Its really good to see his attention for small details and this kind of DIY pride is endearing. This is a great example of what true "aspirational value" ought to look like. He made me feel that, "hey I can and should do at least this much for my car". I just wish the video would have gone a little deeper rather than kind of abruptly cutting him short. (slow clap for the producer who made that call lol) - please do another one and don't be afraid to dive deeper next time guys!

[@Stardust_26]

Imran is rare breed. I still remember he once considered to be the next big thing in bollywood along with Ranbir. It takes a lot to someone to gave up everything and pursue a simple and minimalistic life.

I happen to have this same car. 2016 model so 1.2L 4cyl, no mods (yet). Perfect sleeper if the badging is removed. On the long pune - bengaluru highway, this car wasn't backing down to a highly aggressively driven Q5. Even at 180-190 it has got an exceptional level of stability. it's an absolute gem.

[@moneyruins4141]

I sold my 2014 Polo Gt for 4,95,000 in 2017 .,, after 7 years now , The market value is still 5 Lakh for that same car.

[@apoorvvkrao9667]

'Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication'-Imran's love for Polo proves this adage right. Ah! This video made me smile and miss my Polo. Thank you @Mashable India @Renuka and @Imran Khan for this beautiful video. VW, please bring back the Polo. You have a winner in your stable.

[@Pooja-db9me]

the interview is abruptly cut on orders from the producer and then some random stuff on the vehicle plays for 3 mins! Insult both to the interviewee as well as the viewer

Absolutely true. So good to see Imran is enjoying he’s stage 2 beast. This is coming from stage 2 Polo GT owner too. ❤️❤️❤️

[@monkeypro1986]

Finally, a true car enthusiast among actors! I can relate to his passion for his Polo, as I've spent hours searching Team-BHP threads for Polo upgrades myself. Now, it's time for me to research the Euro spec air intake for my Toffee Brown 1.0 TSI manual, which I've outfitted with MOMO alloys and Yokohama S.Drive tires. Cheers Imran !!

[@muhammedkhandookhee4631]

This generation of the Polo is still on sale (& manufactured) in South Africa, as the Polo Vivo. It's sold alongside the current gen Polo, & is positioned below it, as an entry level and more affordable VW. Infact South Africa, is the sole manufacturer of all right hand drive Polo's in the world, currently. So I'm surprised that India being a right hand drive market like ours, didn't import the Polo from us.

[@georgecarlinn6288]

Polo and Volkswagen have to compete with suzuki and hyundai in India which is tough for them, polo got discontinued and other model got introduced

[@History_with_D]

You did a great job at delivering information about the car. Very few are there in india to make such type of video. ❤

If u like a Polo GT TSI, trust me u will simply fall in love with a Golf R. So do urself a favor, fly down to Zurich, rent a near new Golf R, drive through bernese oberland, enjoy the twisties, enter into austria, head towards Munich, on the way u could unleash the Golf Rs real potential on the German autobahns. This is one drive i will remember on my Golf for the rest of my life !
