I have a the new Passat says 52mpg town and 68mpg motorways, Does nothing like the specs state and its been back twice for such poor specs.
Dash reads anything from 33mpg-58mpg overall Yet when filling to the neck shows its doing around 34-37mpg at best town driving.
Motorway shows 45-77mpg yet after filling to neck after doing 200miles gives a return of 46mpg at 70mph.
VW are able to program what the dash shows your getting and all this does is makes you feel better while your driving the car (and makes you mad when filling it as your being lied too by a computer that aint showing what your really getting) if it was show you the real specs you simply would not buy one.
Im told all cars are tested on flat rolling road no wind or air con on and town miles are tested at 30mph in 5th gear ! Ouch the car must be trying to cut out at that speed.
And as for new shape ! feel sorry for all those who have the mk6 as the price will now drop like a bomb.
Had VWs for over 15 years now and the best was the 90bhp 1.9 overall these new ones dont do anything like we are told when buying them.
Shame something cant be done about making the likes of Vw Vauxhall ford and so on live up to the specs given out when selling a car ! its false advertising in a massive way.

just like vw. it looks the same as the mk6.

why oh why do they always show the high spec model !!!! it has so many extras that it would cost double nearly, on any base price they come up with. as always a good solid looking car. with a now very old style, but why. vw have brought out some very updated designs, over the last few years. it would have been a good time to have really worked a bit of a real update to the golf.

Stunning styling. Nearly as distinctive as an Astra, or was it a Megane? No, I'm mistaken: it's just like the previous Golf, or the version before that...

30 POSTS AND 11 OF THEM ARE SPAM! MSN SORT IT OUT FFS!

Another over flogged model due to a lack of imagination - create something new for christ sake!
cars are getting worse than film releases! yawn flippin yawn!

Looks virtually identical to the pervious two models. I (and virtually everyone else it seems) is really dissapointed in the styling! - what happend to "a new model" its got Porche 911 written all over it this. just lazy really.

well i have to say i lost interest once i saw it has a touchscreen audio system, my car has this and it's absoloutly rubbish, a £3k upgrade done by the previous owner, what a waste of money, i think it's dangerous too as you've got to look at the screen to see where you need to press, thus taking your eyes off the road, and another thing, just when you go to tap the screen you hit a bump and touch the wrong "button" so you're then left faffing around trying to do what you wanted to do in the first place!
FOR GOD SAKE MSN, GET RID OF ALL THE DATING / NATURIST / PORN SPAM ON HERE!

No imagination at VW, every new Golf looks the same as the old Golf...
05/09/2012 22:36
if you think this car is overpriced what about the bmw mini??????
05/09/2012 22:11
This looks smart...
05/09/2012 12:36
looks like grandad has been designing again cant beat the Mk4 shape this is ever more looking and getting cheaper totally relying on the name!!
05/09/2012 10:37
'Evolution' rather than 'Revolution' seems to be the ethic behind the VW Golf, and it has become an Industry Standard as result - quite rightly so! It is also great to see that the ever-increasing kerb weight of a highly important car has been reversed, albeit by only 100 kg. The World needs dramatically increased fuel-efficiency and weight is one of the key areas. Well done, in anticipation, Volkswagen!

how much?
23/09/2012 20:07
I currently have the MK 6 Golf 160 tsi GT model which has a superb engine but regrettably VW are no longer going to produce this gem in their new MK 7 model. I don't know whether the lighter body compensates for the lower 20 bhp.
The pictures featured do not include shots of the boot which I belive is more spacious, I must say the clean lines of the new hatchback looks attractive and the cabin has been upgraded
In my opinion VW have done a good job and I think I will stay with the Golf again as my next new car

It doesnt look much different to the current golf which is no bad thing. The 2L TDI is the perfect car for small families. Quick, good on fuel, well made, good to drive, holds it's value and is still a premium brand. I've owned them in the past and will always recommend to a friend

vw golf ................... enough said !
