1991 Volkswagen Golf Driver review from UK and Ireland
"A good faithful workhorse"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Engine cuts out unexpectedly when driving most recently on a motorway. Dealer mechanic unable to give explanation for this. Also as car is 13 years old it is beginning to show its age even though I have been faithfully servicing it over the last 5 years. This has lead to increase in cost of ownership so I now have to part with it or be faced with A high service bill.
General comments?
Until recently was a very reliable car, if at time sluggish.
Good comfort inside and once it gets going can get to a high enough speed. Also been very economical.
