This is my car and has over 205k on it. It runs almost like new and still smokes the competition. It's the most fun in winter; it being front wheel drive, it handles unbelievably in snow. However, the weight distribution isn't perfect and is front heavy. My Wolfsburg is exactly a GTi with the exception of it being 4-door instead of 2- and there is no VR6 option. It's got an ABA, which is a SOHC inline-4 with 1981cc of displacement, kicking 115 hp and 130 lbs/foot torque but trust me; it feels like much more! It's not the most aerodynamic car on the road lol but I think it's the coolest car ever. But don't take my word for it; it's my first car and I love it to hell. The boxy-style doesn't please every one. Reliability isn't perfect. I've had a few things break since I've had it and the electronics would need some revising but overall, this is an awsome car! German cars rule!

Great Cabriolet Car best I've had xx The drive quality is excellent handles the road really well and like a dream to drive would recommend this car VW Golf Cabriolet to anyone and with my private plate just looks better.

Great drive and great fun - however had to sell as could not fit 3 kids in back :(

It has 131K on it now. Several problems with the rust around the license plate on the hatch the most annoying and likely the most expensive to fix. (Yet to do). It is good on gas (40 mpg) and quite fast and looks good. Driver's seat is a pain to adjust and not that comfortable. Relatively quiet.

performance- awesome acceleration, great braking, good handling, built quality- never needed body repair, has had upgrates, curretly needs a power steering rack and a front wheel bearing, appearance- black on black, leather interier, custom rear plate holder. cost of ownership-not a whole lot fun factor-this car is amazing to drive, love it to pieces
