Nimble Handling, Luxurious Ride: The New Golf

Date of Review:  Dec 24, 1999
Review: For years (about twenty-four to be precise), the automotive world has recognized the hatchback as the most practical car design. The 2000 Volkswagen Golf is simply the top of the hatchback food chain. I've owned a Golf for eight months now, and...

VW Golf, the best ever

Date of Review:  Apr 18, 2000
Review: I bought this vehicle for working purposes, I had a new job and I needed a car to get from A to B without any troubles. I thought VW Golf would do the job. So far I've had no complaints at all.
I love the looks, it looks really cool and it gives...

If cars have souls...

Date of Review:  Feb 19, 2002
The Bottom Line: The 1999 Volkswagen New Golf is a poorly-made car that will cause you nothing but trouble.
Review: ...The '99 Golf is going to hell!

My 1999 Volkswagen Golf ranks with a few ex-boyfriends as one of the biggest mistakes I have ever made. The car ran tolerably well (despite a significant lag in the automatic transmission and the kamikaze...

Its a DIYer's dream...

Date of Review:  Feb 10, 2009
The Bottom Line: If you are thinking about buying an MKIV today, make sure you are mechanically inclined or you have an extended warranty.
Review: Before I begin, I thought you might like to know DIY means "Do-It-Yourself". And finally, an MKIV is a Golf produced between 1999 and 2006.

I bought my 1999 MK4 GLS back in July for $5000 with 80K miles on the clock. After reading over 50...

I'm happy with my 2000 golf GLS

Date of Review:  Jun 14, 2000
Review: With the gas prices on there rise here in the SF bay area, I decided it was time to get rid of my 19 mile per gallon sports car. It was time to move onto something a *little* more practical. The first thing I decided to do was write down what my...

Warrantee ends problem starts

Date of Review:  Oct 22, 2000
Review:
For the first year I own the car I was really happy. The car itself
was perfect. I had problem with the service since my dealer is also
selling audi and porches but it had nothing to do with the car.

Was a wonderful car...

Mixed Feelings

Date of Review:  Jan 29, 2007
The Bottom Line: Average car, nothing special. If you like the looks, and it isn't rusted yet, go for it. Chances are all the worst problems are gone.
Review: I bought this car used in 2000. I really love the look of the MK3 Volkswagen Golf and It was the right car for me at the time (I was a student). It had 82 000 KM with the warranty just expired at 80 000 KM. The previous owner sold at the right time...
