This is the best car I have ever owned. It is teeming with brilliant engineering and full of clever driver comforts I didn't know I needed. Absolutely stunning.

Hey, long term review? Do you still have it?
@obrienqwerty2 жыл бұрын
@@lydiagathoni4528 Yes, I have had this from new for 8 years now (time flies!) and it remains the best car I have ever owned. It has been supremely reliable and wonderfully comfortable. For sure, the odd thing has worn out and the dealer servicing is on the dear side but I get in, it starts first time always and gets me to my destination in what feels like gliding on a magic carpet. We've been across Europe and across town: it copes with everything with equal aplomb I'll have to get rid of it at some point, I suppose, but that still feels like a long way off. An amazing car.

Golf is the best in its class the only negative thing people can say about it is its looks and personally i think it looks rather nice, as far as reliability is concerned i have the 1.6 tdi with dsg gearbox and its completely fine, i know other people who have had golfs for years and they've been completely fine. The best thing about it is the interior its a nice place to be in has a premium feel and quality for a car thats not that expensive and the seats are amazing for long drives.

I had owned a brand new car and then one day I was looking to test drive Golf. I had never driven such a nice car before, bought it within that week of test drive.

Does anyone know what colour that is? Couldn't find it on the website and to me it almost looked slightly two toned in the light

Hi Alex, It is called Night Blue ( metallic). If you look at the car configurator on the official Volkswagen site you should be able to see the colour. www.volkswagen.co.uk/new/golf-vii/configure/paint/1365/1366

Have the reliability bugs been fixed with the Mark VII or 7.5?

There werent much reliability bugs. Go for the new 1.5 tsi engine. Insane traction with no wheelspin whatsoever, great fuel economy, enough power. Couple it with an r line package and oh boy you got a head turner that shits on some luxury cars
