1986 Volkswagen Golf CL review from UK and Ireland
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Oil leak due to oil filter not being fitted properly. Puncture as well but had only had the car 2 months - so far so good.
General comments?
Nice for first car, very reliable and economical. Tidy for wear and low mileage. I want something quicker (tempted by friends Astra GTE) and may buy sooner, get GTI Golf.
