I Will Miss This Model

My 1996 VW Golf lasted me for 15 years. Towards the end, it started to domino-effect with the engine/ transmission problems; however, the prior 15 years of owning the car were worry free.

Wonderful car. Very fast, reliable

Absolutely the best car that I've owned. Take it for a drive and you would never know that it was a 1996. Great gas mileage, and would be a great car for a commuter. Over all a great car, and I would recommend it to anyone looking for a new car.

My Golf Rocks!

This car is super reliable. I have owned it since college, which was many years ago and it is still going strong.
