1986 Volkswagen Golf C review from UK and Ireland

"Got a lot of street cred and looks good"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Nothing at all. I only replaced the clutch cable cos it was getting stiff (no sniggering).

General comments?

Driving seat is uncomfortable and badly designed, so after a bit of driving, my back aches.

The radio is placed in an awkward place. Apart from that, a very good car.
