Quite quick, not fast but lots of low down torque. Always get over 40mpg on runs and even had 46 on one tankfull! Build quality excellent, 85k no squeaks, rattles, everything works and it drives like new! Looking quite old now but still quite smart. Servicing by myself, good fuel economy, even insurance costs are ok. Great fun on twisty roads, much better than i ever thought it would be! Much more composed than my other mk2 golof gti!

Quick little motor, especially with the k and n air filter, handles the bends really well on the twisty stuff. I use the car mainly for work and the fuel consumption for me is 33-35 mpg which is really good.

My first car, bought it cheap, put some money into it, then gave it to my mom. Perfect car to start with, last long, built on good material, does not break down as often as other cars. A car to recommend

This car really deseved 3 1/2 stars as the only thing wrong with it was the stodgy performance. Other than that I did over 100k miles in it and it never let me down. VW service costs were fairly high so opted for a family frind on that front but all in all a good car. I had it in dragon green rather than this red monstrosity.
