VOLKSWAGEN GOLF (2017-20) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 TDI DPFR SS 115 EU6 GT

Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VOLKSWAGEN GOLF (2017-20) 3DR HATCHBACK 1.6 TDI DPFR SS 115 EU6 GT is a premium-feeling, three-door family hatchback, sitting in the UK’s middle ground between small city cars and larger family cars. Its diesel engine and GT trim add a purposeful, well-equipped feel; the three-door body looks sportier.
It suits commuters and couples seeking comfortable everyday transport with long-distance appeal, though rear-seat access is less convenient than in a five-door Golf. Compared with Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra rivals, the Golf is known for a tidy cabin, composed ride and broad all-round ability rather than the lowest price.
