2008 Volkswagen Golf

Trim: GOLF CITY
by Bananna on 07-23-2013
Volkswagen City Golf - Perfect for youngsters!
This is a car that was bought brand new by my father back in 2008. Ever since then, I took care of this baby and maintained it periodically. I tend to be obsessed with good scents and be a clean freak so the car is sparkling clean. I will even offer a detailed cleaning one last time right before handing it over to you.

Hope my baby finds someone that will love her as much as I did so far.

2008 Volkswagen Golf

by NAT5231 on 07-14-2013
Excellence in VW standards, great in city and highways!!
I am on my third VW since the 90's, first 2 were bought in the southwest of France. My Dad also bought his first VW "Rabbit" in Toronto early 70's and he was thrilled with its reliability and long-life of minor services. It's not a consumer and did not need its winter tires first year bought in 2008, made it through a very snowy winter! Great stability especially on curves, super highway drive! Never a problem with this "CITY" model since 5 years. Hate to let go of it but too costly to ship back to France!

Drives and feels like a Sports Car!
A one owner vehicle, basically new with very low mileage. The vehicle handles and drives like a sports, car low and sprightly. A very smooth ride, comfortable and quiet. Great mileage to the liter and a! Great Price!

Great city dwelling car!
Reliable, compact, but lots of space! Bigger on the inside! Really good experience with VW service as well. Great fuel economy; the smaller engine is great for city driving.

2007 Volkswagen Golf

2007 Volkswagen Golf 5 spd.
My car is clean and smoke free. Engine is in a good state. The front and rear brake pads as well as rotors have been replaced to prepare the car for its next owner. The car is ready for cold winter days by having a block heater installed. I am selling my car with extra set of tires with rims. I enjoyed driving this car and never had any problems with it.

Great car for all seasons
I truly love this car, and I wouldn't be selling it, but right now I need the money to pay off my loan. It breaks my heart, but I have no other choice at this time. It is honestly the best car I've ever driven: it's a comfortable and reliable car, and the fuel economy is affordable.

Awesome all around car
Owned 2007 to current date. Very few issues. If any they were covered by the warranty. The interior design is very good and good quality. The dark interior means it looks still brand new! I couldn't be happier with this car!

perfect car for small families
I did not expect the fuel economy on this car, very impressive to start with. after a few months riding, this car provides excellent driving experience in Canadian winter (armed with winter tires, but the car itself did help a lot). in love with it!

Comfortable DD vehicle
Bought this as a daily driver.
Very happy with it.
Experienced a few hiccups with dealership, but in the end everything was taken care of.
Mileage was as expected, and I was looking for a no nonsense, no options, plain Jane vehicle to get to work and back... the City line of vehicles from VW fits that bill perfectly.
