It blends practicality with a more upmarket feel than mainstream rivals. mycarcheck.com records 7,246 look-ups for this Golf across 2,973 distinct VINs. Checks show an average private-sale valuation of £6,900 and average recorded mileage of 100,000 miles, useful reference points rather than a price guide for every car. Its five doors and roomy cabin suit families, commuters and drivers needing one versatile car.

GT trim adds a sportier look and extra comfort, making this Golf a well-rounded alternative to the Ford Focus and Vauxhall Astra.
