Are vw any good? I've never had any. Only German I had were BMWs and Benz. And every time something comes up it's an easy 4 digit repair. I'm not sure if vw is any cheaper to repair or as stupidly designed with all the electronic sensors.  |
a stock golf is usually quite reliable. theyre built incredibly solid. go drive a 3 year old focus ST or a 13 year old golf GTI and the vw will feel so much better. everything is well engineered and ages very well.
most maintenance items on a golf can be easily tackled by a weekend mechanic like most people on this website, especially with all the write ups on the internet. i wouldn't hesitate too much on a vw, but i would not say the same for audi/merc/bmw
