The Volkswagen Golf is an icon. Not many vehicles have been around and had as much staying power has the Golf. The German technology and build quality is first class and the diesel engines offer an excellent range of power and economy. Very safe, good build quality, lots of space inside, sits comfortably on motorways all day long but is equally happy in town. This model really does hold its value well, simply because it is so popular.
Finished in Metallic Reflex silver with cloth upholstery this Golf comes with 15 inch alloy wheels, middle arm rest, electric windows, steering wheel rake and reach adjustment, ESP, Radio CD and cassette player, climate control, driver and passenger airbags.
This car comes with a full service history, last serviced on the 19/07/07 at 53826 miles. We have an MOT until October 2008 and two keys for this car.
