I feel like the Golf is the really cheap Porsche 911. It has spread out on multiple decades, is a massive success to the company. It is always evolving and new models are rolling out whilst still keeping the body shape the same and the driving characteristics more or less the same. I've driven all a Golf in forms and generations ((hatch, wagon, 3 door, 5 door) except a mk1 and cabriolet). Yet they all manage to feel alike. Not that the new golfs are like the old ones, it's just a certain feeling of familiarity you get in them. They're iconic cars.
@royliber3824

Well yeah so we might hate each other's car choices and opinions at parts but we love the fact that everybody gets along when talking about cars. Cars are way more than just taking you from point A to point B, they have souls. They take us to the most important events of our lives and we get to compete with them as well. Some people appreciate them for that some less but those who do always get along together. And thats what cars are all about :)

Me and my friends don't have much in common when it comes to cars and I love it, it always makes our conversations that tiny bit better and somewhat competitive.

I love the car tho it has style and its fuel efficient and its everything I need at this point of life. dream car I would say Lexus LFA probably or Ferrari California (fell inlove with the California ever since ive been at Italy few years back).

I’ve had seven mk1 and mk2 Golfs. Loved them all apart the mk1 diesel which was a complete turd. Late 8v GTI is a solid daily driver and strangely offers the best petrol consumption of all Golfs at nearly 40mpg. The one to buy if you want to go oldskool. 16v KR is a blast but can be expensive when the head needs overhauling. I deny the existence of the mk3 and the best looking mk4 Golf is the mk1 Leon Cupra R 😁

Why don't u like the Mk3 too? I own one with the shitty 1.4 engine and without any safety features or AC whatsoever and I love its simplicity and they way it handles and drives in general, I am actually thinking of getting a 2.0 16V
@scunnerdarkly4929
@scunnerdarkly4929 4 года назад
Andy - apart from better looking (early cars looked a bit awkward but the 2003 facelift transformed it) , the regular Cupra had a 178bhp lump from the TT while the Golf GTI had to make do with 150bhp until 2002. If you wanted more the Cupra R added another 30bhp, going up to 221bhp with later engines. Sure the R32 had another 17bhp on top of that but that’s a different engine and a different car. Don’t get me wrong, I love Golfs but the Mk4 styling was just dull compared, and the Leon could offer sportier options to help promote awareness of the brand and model without denting VW’s bottom line. So yeah aside from the great R32, the best mk4 is a 2003+Leon. Never had one but got a soft spot for Boras too.
@scunnerdarkly4929
@scunnerdarkly4929 4 года назад
Sirbu Mihai - the mk3 was a lardy replacement lacking the sharper lines of the even simpler mk2. Heavier too. VR6 is great but the 2.0 GTI 8v offers less power than the older 1.8 lump. 16v now EFI so power up to 150bhp from old KR’s 139bhp but extra weight largely counters this. Mk3 isn’t a bad car as such but it’s not a driver’s choice without 12 or 16 valves.
@alexisknows6513
@alexisknows6513 4 года назад
@@scunnerdarkly4929 I really wonder if more valves is the end all be all ....I had 84 GTI 8 valves that would rip to 210Kph as needed , only one valve lash adjustment , 460,000Km before I sold it . Now I have 16 VVT that rip to 165Kmph as needed ....I need a lot of road for 210Kph (ECU?) Only 166,666Km an needs valve lash adjustment already.

My theory is they’ve made the ID3 more ‘Golfy’ than the ugly as sin MK8 Golf to push Golf drivers towards electric cars.

On the upside you can tell the new golf that your balls are cold and it will promptly turn on the driver seat heating.

The mk1 was produced in South Africa until 2009 because it was selling very well. It had numerous facelifts, interior upgrades as well as engine upgrades. It was discontinued in 2009 because it didn't meet the safety regulations of the time. It is a very popular car here especially among petrol heads because there are parts everywhere available in SA

I bought a MK6 2.0 TDI to replace my Lexus IS200, And I have to say, The Golf is a nicer car to own in every respect. Cheaper on fuel, Road tax (In the England) is £30 opposed to £325 for the IS, It's a lot more fun to chuck about on country lanes, and more flexibility with regards to boot space. Mine's a BlueMotion version, So I get 60+mpg opposed to the IS200's 21!?!?!? (I wouldn't have minded that 21mpg if I felt I was getting my money's worth out of it, But when you were giving it some..... Well, It was nowhere near as quick as other 21mpg cars I've driven. :( ). OK, It's got less BHP, But it makes up for that by having about 50% more torque. Even on standard suspension, If you fit decent tyres on it you can out corner quite a few supposedly hot hatches, And for a 400 quid remap you can have 190ish bhp and over 300lb/ft of torque. You'd spend a lot more than this to get that kind of power hike out of most cars in it's price range. Only thing I really miss about the IS200 is it being rear wheel drive. :(
