Choosing a used model is not always easy. You're trying to find the perfect compromise... when the perfect compromise doesn't exist. However, some models, like the Volkswagen Golf, practically offer it.
Here are three reasons why you might want to put this model on your shopping list.
The practicality of a utility vehicle
Today, utility vehicles are popular, mainly because of their practicality. It's easy to forget, but a hatchback offers almost the same kind of cargo space as a small SUV. With the Golf, simply folding down the second row seats frees up nearly 1,500 liters of space, which is about average for subcompact SUVs.
Take the test and see.
Fuel economy
The price of fuel doesn't seem to be going down anytime soon. This is likely to influence our choices as we tend to opt for more economical solutions.
With the Golf, it's hard to find a more fuel-efficient car. In its basic configuration, the 4-cylinder engines it has offered over the years have always been examples of efficiency. With a Golf, it's easy to enjoy fuel economy averages between 6.0 and 7.0 L/100 km. It's a good idea to think about it, because in the long run, it represents significant savings.
Fun behind the wheel
Finally, one element that should not be overlooked is driving pleasure. With a Golf, you're getting your hands on one of the cars that has built its reputation on the driving pleasure it offers to anyone behind the wheel. When you drive this car, it's simple, you forget everything. It's easy to lose interest because you feel at one with this car that is comfortable, powerful and agile.
The Volkswagen Golf is perhaps the perfect compromise when it comes to thinking about a reliable, practical, efficient, economical and fun used car. In fact, there is no other model that offers as much.
