His whole 22 years devotion to VW Golf II. "Auto Council 2020", the exhibition of classic car and vintage car, was the place I met him - Mr. Tanaka, who is a representative of this shop named "Spinning Garage". Since 1974, the year first model was released, VW Golf has always been a magnificent benchmark of popular cars over the ages.
The words what he speaks out are like so modest that you don't feel pressured talking to him. This old man talks just like how young folks nowadays do, about cars he loves.
Thinking rationally, Golf II is very efficient - I mean, it has all kinds of functions. Golf I is too small for this age, reliability is not so great, and the body is easy to rust. Though they made progress properly on III and IV, such as having a V6 and changing into a 5-valve. Wouldn't those progresses be too sexy for this car? I wonder.
The dimension of Golf II is length 3,985mm x width 1,665mm x height 1415mm, and wheelbase is 2,475mm. Basically, this dimension also applies to 3 doors' and 5 doors'. To be expressed in Japanese way, this is a great 5-number sized (passenger car with displacement from 660cc-2000cc by Japanese vehicle registration coding system) utility car. Look how perfectly 4 old men fit in that car. Very efficient!
Aging-odor could be finely controlled by outside air circulation and each window. The normal looking 1.8 liter serial inline-4 engine (105ps) accelerates and pushes the car forward appropriately. If you prefer a wolf in sheep's clothing, you can choose DOHC 16-valve cylinder head GTI (125ps). By the way, according to some sexy old men, "Golf II is well-received by ladies very much". (Which is very important!)
Though Golf II was produced from 1983 to 1992, you won't have problems with genuine parts supply nor performing sufficient maintenance. We, a tall-short old men duo were moved to tears by the magnificence of being normal.
