VW Beetle Cabriolet 2.0 TSI (2013) CAR review

Rated 3.5 out of 53.5

Ben Pulman (photography by Greg Pajo), 14 March 2013 09:00

VW’s range already boasts two drop-tops:  the Golf Cabriolet and folding hard-top Eos. Now, the retro-styled VW Beetle joins the convertible contingent, and CAR has driven it in 2.0-litre Turbo guise to see how it stacks up. Clearly hoping that we winter-weary, Vitamin D-starved Brits would burn ourselves silly and write deludedly nice things while suffering a bout of sunstroke, ...

VW Golf vs Audi A3 vs Mercedes A-class (2013) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Ben Pulman (photography by George F. Williams), 11 March 2013 23:00

Which is the best premium German family hatchback – the VW Golf Mk7, Audi A3 or Mercedes A-class? CAR gathered an Audi A3 1.4 TFSI SE, a Mercedes A200 Sport and a VW Golf GT 1.4 TSI together in central London to bring you the definitive verdict. VW has spent billions developing the seventh-gen version of the Golf, Europe’s biggest-selling ...

Volkswagen Golf 1.4 TSI (2013) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher (photography by John Wycherley), 16 January 2013 11:20

Volkswagen’s all-new, seventh-generation Golf went on UK sale on 7 January, with prices from £16,285. Is it worth your hard-earned cash? We’ve driven the 138bhp 1.4-litre petrol to find out. After 39 years and 29 million Golf sales, VW has finally crashed its hatchback icon into the class above. The seventh generation is now so refined, so grown-up, so classy, ...

VW Golf GTD (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Colin Overland, 01 July 2009 10:33

There are plenty of reasons for wanting a VW Golf, and they’re the same reasons that generally applied to all five previous generations. It’s a car that distils everything VW knows about providing do-everything motoring in a reasonably compact, affordable-ish package. If you buy into the Golf idea, and you want it badged VW rather than Skoda, Audi, Seat or ...

VW Bluesport concept (2009) CAR review

Rated 4 out of 54

Georg Kacher, 23 June 2009 11:30

Since its launch 20 years ago the Mazda MX-5 has effectively ruled a class of one, but, finally, two decades on, it may have a challenger. At the start of 2009 at the Detroit motor show, VW unveiled the Bluesport concept, a two-seat mid-engined roadster that’s scheduled to go on sale in early 2012 for around £20k. What's more, the concept ...

VW Golf GTI Mk6 (2009) new CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Ben Barry, 07 April 2009 10:39

The old Mk5 GTI might have had its thunder stolen by the Focus RS, Megane R26R and perhaps even the Civic Type R, but it was still the best all-round hot hatch you could buy when it recently went off sale. And that – combined with the fact that the new Mk6 is essentially a very thoroughly facelifted Mk5 – ...

VW Sharan Bluemotion/Seat Alhambra Ecomotive (2009) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Stephen Worthy, 01 January 2009 09:00

It’s taken Volkswagen and Seat a while to trickle down their respective environment-focused Bluemotion and Ecomotive badges to their large MPVs, the Sharan and Alhambra. That tells you all you need to know about the pecking order at VAG. The truth is that in their current guise these are two cars approaching the automotive equivalent of the old folks’ home. ...

VW Golf 2.0 TDI 140 DSG (2009) CAR review

Rated 2.5 out of 52.5

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 23 September 2008 09:00

Despite the residue of hundreds of kilted Scottish football supporters who were far too sloshed to find the airport after the World Cup qualifying match – and, for that matter, probably still are – Reykjavik is an outstanding city from which to launch a car. Compared to anything else on offer on the planet, the surrounding scenery is absolutely brand spanking new ...

VW Scirocco GT (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 16 June 2008 10:00

Volkswagen has finally launched its new Scirocco coupe and CAR has tested the first production versions. Anthony ffrench-Constant reviews the new Scirocco and wonders why it has taken VW so long to get around to a Mk3…  Perhaps VW has simply been too busy frantically filling every other market segment it could identify, including some its customers clearly failed to. ...

VW Passat CC (2008) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Anthony ffrench-Constant, 11 April 2008 22:58

No, the VW Passat CC isn't a folding tin-top elder bother for the Eos... Nomenclature connotations of Coupe/Cabriolet are entirely misleading. CC first stood for Concept Coupe when the show car was revealed and, as the real deal hits the streets in summer 2008, actually stands for, um, Comfort Coupe. Only in Germany…VW has done to the Passat exactly what ...
