Recently I saw a very nice looking VW Polo ad published by a certain popular car dealership in Duplication road and started doing some research on the vehicle. It looked like a really good vehicle(to me), but the only problem is that it is not a Japanese vehicle. My knowledge about vehicles is not that great, but as I understand, there are certain disadvantages/hardships in owning a non-Japanese vehicle in Sri Lanka. I have a few questions that I would like to pick your brains on.
1. One of my main concerns is that there does not seem to be a VW agent in Sri Lanka. Is that correct? I know Drive One is now the sole agent for Audi, but do they also do VW?
There is a facebook page with a shocking 34 million+ likes(even lot more than the population in Sri Lanka ?) and the website URL as www.volkswagensl.com, but the last post on the page is in 2016 December and the website is dead.
2. How difficult would it be to maintain a VW in Sri Lanka? Are there any reliable places for maintenance and repairs?
3. Is it total stupidity to even consider buying a VW, given all of the above I have mentioned?
Thank you very much in advance for your valuable input!

Does anyone know a place to repair/service a seat reclining (mechanical) system? Seems both driver side and passenger side seats are kind of stuck.. Hoping to take it to a seat cushioning/carpeting place to get checked.. any other option?
Trump imposes tariffs on China and they impose higher tariffs in US products. For the EV batteries China is the biggest provider of earth materials and it will push US EV vehicle prices up. We are going to see a nice game coming up between two world superpowers.
