"A good faithful workhorse"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

Engine cuts out unexpectedly when driving most recently on a motorway. Dealer mechanic unable to give explanation for this. Also as car is 13 years old it is beginning to show its age even though I have been faithfully servicing it over the last 5 years. This has lead to increase in cost of ownership so I now have to part with it or be faced with A high service bill.

General comments?

Until recently was a very reliable car, if at time sluggish.

Good comfort inside and once it gets going can get to a high enough speed. Also been very economical.

Hi don't give up on your old Golf. This sounds like a carburettor problem to me they are a bit notorious. You could get a Webber replacement which would be more reliable and economical. Check out the vwmonline web-site people there could give you more detailed advice.
