1995 Volkswagen Golf VR6 review from UK and Ireland
"An excellent performance VW"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I have had no faults with the car so far.
General comments?
This is my 4th Golf and my second MK3. The VR6 engine makes the vehicle exceptionally easy to drive, lots of low and mid range power mean frequent gears changes are eliminated.
Handling and ride are good compromise between sports and comfort with very little road noise penetrating the cabin.
In 5 door form the car is proving to be very practical and the increase body size offers much more comfort for rear passengers than my old MK2.
I'd recommend this car to anyone who can live with the fuel bill. Running costs are higher than the smaller engined version, but the smile on your face more than makes up for it.
