Buyer's Guide & Data from our Checks
The VOLKSWAGEN GOLF (2004-09) 3DR HATCHBACK 2.0 TDI GT is a compact hatchback pairing a diesel engine with sportier GT trim. It occupies the UK’s middle ground: more substantial than a city car, yet easier to park than a family car. Its three doors look purposeful but limit rear-seat access.

Checked examples averaged 155,000 miles and 6.3 previous keepers, while annual mileage averaged 7,000.
