Areas for improvement: none
Solid, reliable and very practical car, ok for a small family on a budget. Never had any mechanical trouble with this car, never had any rust issues. The exhaust needed to be changed but that only cost 80 pounds.
The running costs for Volkswagen Golf 1.6 are very low
Areas for improvement: None!
Such fun to be had in this honest and gutsy little pocket-rocket. It had so much get up and go, it was a constant blast to drive. It was also the hight of practicality, since it was a convenient hatchback. Truly the people's successor to the humble beetle.
The running costs for Volkswagen Golf GTi are normal
