2001 Volkswagen Golf GT TDI 5 Door review from UK and Ireland
"A billiant cheap to run sports hatchback with prestige"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Air control system failed.
General comments?
Such a great car for the money, so well built.
Was a company car so was not cosseted, but remained like new.
Very quick for what it was, handled and stopped OK, great on fuel.
Had the best factory fit sound system I have heard in any similar car.
