Golf a good thing?

only good things.do they do a diesal

 

i'm sure she would look good in a R32

 

Golf seems good, just don't get a hole in one.

especially with mother in law!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

yeah...and it was worthy!

 

awesome cars, get a DSG TDi.....do 1000kms from a tank and top build quality

A class junk in comparison

 

Forget all of that...get her a 2nd hand E60 540i. I know a guy trying to sell one

 

thatd be a dream on the fuel and parts!

 

fuel consumption issue is relative. parts readily available and heaps of warranty left on the car

 

never been thrashed.....right?

 

Never! It has always been driven well within the limits of the vehicles capabilities

 

Yeah, they are not built all that well [Made In S/Africa] and have small bits and pieces needing fixing and software issues.They also dont do that well in consumer feedback reports, NOT a lemon, but nowhere near as good as they should be.Needs PULP fuel too.

THE Mother.In.Law car of all time, is the Corolla, a bulletproof [but boring] vehicle if ever one existed.New model out next month.

In back to back testing in that cat. winner time after time is the Mazda3, be my pick too

Depending on the budget [and the need for prestooge] what about a BMW-1-Series?

cannot go wrong with a corolla end of the day

just depends on her required level of vanity!

 

Golf is Good,

however the quality is not as good as it should be.
plastics and materials are fantastic, but little problems like my friend has.

window when winding up then drops back down again
a rattle in the dash that took for ever to find

i know theyre minor things but not what i'd have expected from VW.

GTi would by my top pick for a daily runner of any new car on the market these days.

i also like the Citroen C4, but theyre a bit unproven here in Aus.

 

I actually also like the Megane sport 225, but theyre not the most popular car in the looks dept so i can imagine resale would be death (as with the citroen as theyre unproven)

GTi ticks the resale box also IMO.

 

girl at work just got a new 3dr GTi with all the fruit...satnav, bi xenons, recaros

AWESOME little pocket rocket, but geez the options add up $$$$

 

DSG?

 

yep DSG

 

what a ripper gearbox....really contributes towards making that car what it is, i reckon.

 

definately

gone are the days where you either had a manual gearbox, or a woeful 4spd auto in anything less than an exotic

some pretty good auto options out there these days

 

what's got a good auto these days?

 

to cite a relatively crude example even some bloody falcons have a german ZF box in em.

probably the best part of the car!
