Terrific performance, great space utilization.

Excellent performance, good economy, very good interior, excellent handling. Creature comforts, sound system, engine flexibility are huge pluses. Solid in crosswinds. Could use better rust protection.

Great little car. Easy to own!

I bought this car out of necessity. It was my 4th VW and I knew what to expect. Super reliable, tight handling and reasonable on fuel. Not to mention - when coupled with studded tires in the winter, the best and most control you will ever feel in a 2wd vehicle

Longest lasting small car I?ve ever owned

I?ve owned. Is car twice, once in high school when it was new and I currently own one that is 17 years old. It has 275k miles on it and drives exactly like my old one did. Great power for its size and class. I own the base model so not a lot of bells and whistles to go bad. It handles great through city And highways and is fun to drive.

Stylish, reliable, and moneywise!

This vehicle is a great answer to my transportation needs. Mine is a 1.6sl 5 door. Has all the basic extras including leather seats. With an average of 38MPG, the engine has enough power to move the car in a very agile way. Silent and with a smooth ride. I love my Golf. By the way... mine was made in Germany.

Best car I've owned!

Excellent car. First diesel but I now have a second one. Very little has gone wrong with it, very roomy for a small car, lots of power for an automatic.

German engineering at a fraction of the cost

Love it! It's tons of fun, has a nice amount of cargo room. Handles great compared to other cars of this class.

Very good car

liked everything about it. Very reliable. I have had a vw golf for around 5 years now and loved it. I replaced the brakes once but i bought the car used and other than that there have been no other problems.
