Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VOLKSWAGEN GOLF (2004-09) 5DR HATCHBACK 1.9 TDI SPORT DSG AUTO is a five-door family hatchback, roomier than a city car yet easy to park. A familiar UK used-car alternative to the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra, it has smart, understated styling.
With its diesel engine and automatic gearbox, it suits commuting and longer trips, especially for drivers seeking relaxed journeys. Five doors and useful passenger and boot space make it practical for couples, small families and everyday errands. Sport trim adds a purposeful feel, while practicality and diesel economy have helped the Golf remain a popular all-rounder against rivals.
