Summary for 2005 Volkswagen Golf Diesel Hatchback 2.0 GT TDI 5dr

This 2005 Volkswagen Golf Diesel Hatchback 2.0 GT TDI 5dr is offered to you directly from Hitachi Capital Vehicle Solutions who are the original owners from new.

This car has covered 55604 miles from new. The full HPI check showed no record of any major accidents, as can be seen (for free) on the clear HPI report. This car also comes with a history, and a valid V5 document. An independent RAC Body and Mechanical inspection has been conducted, for which the full details can be accessed from the RAC report beneath the photos.

With an excellent drive, roomy interior and a five-star Euro NCAP crash-test rating, the VW Golf is one of the best hatchbacks around. It's improved in every area over the car it replaced - it can carry four adults in comfort, is enjoyable and comfortable on the road and has most of the equipment you'll ever need. The 2.0 TDI engine is fast, torquey and fuel efficient and delivers 140bhp.

Comfortable, assured and predictable sums up the Golf - it's enjoyable to drive and has excellent road manners. The suspension is well controlled over most road surfaces and makes for a hushed and smooth ride, reflecting the Golf's refined and grown-up nature. The slick gearbox offers quick and precise changes while the steering is nicely weighted and offers decent feedback. There's generous legroom in the back for two and there should be few problems for three children while front passengers get a good amount of leg, head and shoulder room. The seats are on the firm side, but supportive for longer trips plus the cabin is very refined, with wind, road and engine noise well suppressed. It feels more sophisticated at night than most small hatchbacks, with soothing blue backlit dials and displays.

The Golf's boot space is larger than before as well and as a result it's more than capable of coping with everyday family life. There are cupholders in all models and plenty of handy, well-thought-out storage space including deep door pockets and a large central cubby.

You can adjust the steering wheel for height and reach while the driver's seat is multi-adjustable too, which makes for a comfortable driving position. As well as being attractive, the dashboard is functional with large, easy-to-use buttons and all the controls are close to the driver for on-the-move adjustments and the screen is close enough so you don't have to squint.

This model comes with ABS with electronic brakeforce distribution, ESP, driver and front passenger front airbags, head airbags for front and rear passengers, Isofix child seating, immobiliser and remote central locking, semi-automatic air conditioning, front electric windows, electrically adjustable and heated door mirrors, a CD player, height and reach adjustable steering column and driver's seat height adjustment.

This generation Golf was the first Volkswagen to achieve a top five-star Euro NCAP crash test result. It has twin front airbags passenger, driver and front passenger side airbags, head airbags, anti-whiplash protection, five three-point seatbelts and Isofix child-seat anchor points. All cars have an alarm, immobiliser and a stereo that's unique to the car, as well as a key that's difficult to copy.
