2012 Volkswagen Golf consumer reviews

The car is a great balance between performance, economy, comfort, and versatility. It manages to do all of those things well, if not great. It won't win any races but it's fun to drive.

I just turned 40k on my base model. Beside the normal oil changes, I recently replaced the Continental tires with the same tires ! I have owned many cars in my life, but never enjoyed any of them as much as this little hot hatch !

great worry free car. it just starts and goes without any hassle. comfortable perfect for heading to the beach or commuting. I deal owners are young female, young small family, commuter.

I have owned many cars in my life, and several were high end and some were older vw’s. But this VW golf gives the most enjoyment of any car I have owned !

My third VW Golf - this one has been the best - love it for it's versatility, low cost of ownership, reliability (only things I've had to replace is tires and battery in 112,000 miles) and joy of driving - not the fastest off the line but cornering, braking and high-speed driving / passing - wow!

Its very comfortable It has Bluetooth, radio , TV , Sirius, aux. It has DSG transmission, sunroof, it runs excellent, plenty of room. The engine is clean and new. Etc.

I was looking for a car that was reliable and good on gas milage, as due to working 7 days a week I need a constant transport to work. This car filled that and then some. Incredible interior, not too cluttered instrument panel and lots of head and leg room (I'm 6'2 and 350lbs). The seat is a small tiny bit too narrow on the drivers side, but definitely not something I'd subtract anything for given my own size. And just that little bit difficult to get out, but again... not a fault of the vehicle. Quiet too, with very little road noise and engine noise coming into the interior. Very stylish on the outside, even for a small compact car. Clean lines and a classic look with nothing cluttering the front of back like you see on some newer vehicles. All in all, and incredible car. I've only owned it for a few days so far, but they are known for being very reliable and I have yet to have any issues with it. I'm expecting many years of driving to look forward to.

It?s very easy to drive and practical the comfort of the car is really nice it handles very well the display on the dashboard is easy to read the car manual is very helpful and easy to figure out and the ac is fantastic

After you put some money into it to get rid of what Volkswagen did you make it more economically friendly you get better MPG and more power out of it.

I've owned this vehicle since brand new, it now has 93,500 miles on it. It has been the most reliable car I've ever owned and never needed anything more than oil changes, breaks, and tires. Its an excellent car and I would recommend to anyone.
