Drove golf, loved it. Then moved to other brands. OK , but, I think golf is the best of the small hatches. Standard setter. Moved to bigger segment , but still longing those young years in my Golf. Maybe one day I will buy Golf for myself again.

I own a 2012 Golf 1.6TDI 90hp. It's done 40k miles, averages between 60-70mpg. Engine is quiet and refined, power delivery is linear and smooth. It has 10mm lower suspension (sport suspension, 16inch alloys) than standard and altough the ride isn't silky it doesn't annoy you. Chassis is very composed, it doesn't get upset by potholes and the car has very little body roll. The best thing is sound insulation and cabin refinement, it really feels upmarket. Car is serviced every 10k miles and didn't have any issues yet.

I'm in the US and just bought a leftover 2010 2 door Golf. What a beautiful car. It has the NA market 5 cylinder engine, of which I was a tad leery, as I've only driven 4 cylinders, and didn't want to sacrifice fuel economy too drastically. I've been pleasantly surprised by the fact that i'm getting 2 MPG more in the city, though 3 less out on the highway as compared to the Hyundai Elantra I had previously (which I must state is a solid choice for those not craving that German feel).

Golf's reliability? All the reliability index figures might be missing some key data. For example, there are no ratings per version. Say, Volkswagen Golf comes with engine ranges from 80 PS-168PS. The type of driver who will go for 168PS engine and the amount of abuse the car will go through will equate to more chances for the car going to garage.But minus marks for Golfs reliability. For a car like Kia Picanto, customers are more careful, less chances for garage time, top reliability ratings.

The difference in perception of VW quality between the U.S. and Europe is interesting. It would seem that they either build better products for you or the comparison vehicles are much worse. I know of four people who bought VWs. Only one still has it and is happy with the car (a diesel). The others have all switched to Honda or Toyota models and are glad they did. Multiple break-downs and service issues prompted their moves. I switched from M.B. to Lexus and will never go back.

@crocodile2006 Having extensively driven both the Polo and the Golf, I have to say the Golf is far more satisfying to drive, and is much more smooth and refined than the Polo. The Polo is easier around town and to park but that's about the only way it's more beneficial than the Golf. There's also a whole lot more room in the Golf and it just feels higher quality. Speed depends on which engine you get and the Golf will stand up better on the used market.

Negatives: Rear seats don’t go completely flat. Styling isn’t as dramatic as a Honda Civic. Not as sharp to drive as a Ford Focus. Vauxhall Astra is more stylish (inside) than the VW Golf. Fun fact: It’s just nitpicking. Lemmy: Why do I have a Renault Super 5 instead of a VW?

LOL it actually doesn't rain that much here, it's just everyone here complains about the weather. I don't think its as bad as people make out - I was in Germany a few months ago and it seemed to have the same weather as back in the UK (I had family at home and was talking to them about the weather). The weather in the UK isn't as predictable but that doesn't really matter as you can just check the weather forecast online and know what the day will be like. There are a lot of clouds though.
