1994 Volkswagen Golf GL review from Turkey
"The most durable and enjoyable car of modern times"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel pump broke at 115000 kms.
Rubbers on the front axles (for cornering balance) needs to be replaced often.
General comments?
This car has the accessories many 0 km cars don't have today. ABS, electric windows and mirrors etc. Excellent driving position and viewing angle, unmatched handling, wonderfully tuned steering, long life parts and better looks than the current Golf are other pluses.
The engine runs smoothly, like a clock after 117000 kms.
Weight-engine power rating is better balanced than the new Golf. I drove the Passat, new Bora (Jetta), Opel (Vauxhall) Vectra, and Seat Leon for long distances, and none of them give the taste it gives.
