My wifes immaculate anniversary, cracking car

The mk4 was an absolute dog turd of a car in all forms, how they actually stuck a GTI badge on it is beyond me.

Absolute crap, they got some form back with the mk5 thankfully.

Subjectively, it doesn't seem to be as popular as it once was, although £30k prices may well answer that one.

People get caught up on "it's £30k for a Golf!" but conveniently forget about inflation. Also, I'm pretty sure finance has made buying a car nowadays a lot easier than back then. If they're not as (admittedly subjectively) popular now as they were in say, 1989 then it's probably due to factors such as choice of what's on sale, what is "fashionable" i.e. SUVs and the like, but almost certainly not because of the price.

Hard to apply the logic of inflation though, as manufacturing costs have decreased and the market is now global. You can buy a brand new car in the UK for less than you could in the early 90s.

That may well be the case, hence me stating possible other factors!

Aye, also guilty of driving plenty of golf mk4 turd boxes aswell unfortunately

Trying to bring this thread back from a slanging match.

I've never owned a Golf GTI and my own experience of them is being a passenger in my colleagues MK5 and it was very impressive. Personally I'm not a fan of the tartan interior but I'm eyeing up a Mk7 3door with DSG and performance pack but they are a bit expensive for now but I hope in a couple of years time to have one on the drive.

It has been a great every day car, you must of had bad ones.

I was enjoying this thread...

[wongthecorrupter]

For me, far better built than a mk 5. They feel cheap

I used to be a VW salesman. Maybe yours was a good one
