1991 Volkswagen Golf Driver review from UK and Ireland

Nothing gone wrong so far, just a couple of issues I already knew about.

Car is off road at the moment, needs a little welding to pass it's MOT.

Engine will sometimes cut out when started cold, have to keep the revs up at about 1500 until it warms up a bit. No biggie though.

Bodywork needs some attention due to a little cosmetic rust and one or two dents.

A fantastic little car. I got it from my mums friend as a gift for passing my test. The owner before that hadn't given this car the due care and attention, so the car is a little bit worn out, but I have no complaints. It sat on a driveway for 7 months before I picked it up, and it started first time! It starts first time every time. Plenty of power in the lower ranges, though you really need to put the foot down to get up to motorway speed. This car, for all the care it hasn't received, is still excellent. It feels incredibly solid to drive, but watch out for cobbles. That older style body shell transmits sound and vibration like you wouldn't believe (perfect for those who really like to feel the car). The paintwork is still lovely and bright, and when I had all the grime removed at the carwash, it SHINES! I would recommend this car for anyone.
