Volkswagen Golf SV (2014 - 2020) 1.4 TSI S 5d Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
Goes well, economical, comfortable.Good driving position, good legroom for me which is unusual and space behind me. Quiet, sophisticated ride, even better on Michelin X climate tyres. Downside - no reversing sensors, had some fitted. Headlamps poor, even with Osram Nightsearcher bulbs. Boot's not huge but I prefer the space in the cabin, if I need to carry more I can fit a topbox (if I can get it back from my son). The audio sound quality is very good, but the settings menu/display is not at all easy to navigate, could be more intuitive. (Son-in-law is in IT, he says car manufacturers always go for the cheap option).
Your words with the 5star rating are too strong - it's not perfect, but it is very good.
How reliable do you find the car?
Just the one glitch which is apparently well-known - collision alert operated and stabbed at the brakes when there was nothing there.Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
