Volkswagen Golf Hatchback 1.8 CL 5d (94) (1995/M) Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
-
Economy
Value
Not cheap, but this is outweighed by excellent reliability (so far!)
Costs
Main dealer servicing expensive, but plenty of places specialise in VW's and charge less.
-
On the road
Driving
Very comfortable to drive.
Performance
By no means 'fast', but capable of cruising at illegal speeds on the motorway all day long. Predictable handling gives confidence and the ability to have some fun. Brakes are poor. Fuel economy really suffers when driven hard
-
Living with it
Reliability
No problems yet. Owned for 16 months/24,000 miles.
Image
Obviously I'm biased, but I think that the Golf has a good image, particularly in Dragon Green.
Comfort
Provides relaxed motoring all day long. Comfortable driving position.
