VOLKSWAGEN GOLF (2012-17) 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TDI BLUEMOTION TECH DPF SS 150 EU5 MATCH 6SPD
Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VOLKSWAGEN GOLF (2012-17) 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TDI BLUEMOTION TECH DPF SS 150 EU5 MATCH 6SPD is a three-door diesel hatchback: a practical choice in the UK’s popular family-car class. It offers a sportier, less family-focused shape than five-door Golfs, while remaining compact enough for town driving and easy parking.
With a 150-horsepower diesel and fuel-saving BlueMotion technology, it suits commuters covering regular longer journeys, plus couples or small households wanting useful boot space. Match trim adds everyday appeal, while the six-speed manual offers engaging control. Its three-door layout is less convenient for rear passengers than many five-door hatchback rivals.
mycarcheck.com’s 77 checks covered 24 cars: examples averaged 79,000 miles, 10,000 annually and just over two previous keepers. Average private-sale valuation was £7,700. This is useful context, not a price promise. Against rivals such as the Ford Focus, the Golf is known for comfort, a solid feel and broad appeal.
