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 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 ...

VW Tiguan 2.0 TDi (2007) CAR review

Rated 3 out of 53

Georg Kacher, 24 September 2007 01:38

Why is VW so late to the 4x4 party? Blame management, complicated model cycles and just about every other excuse under the sun. And speaking of the sun, those countries from the land of the rising sun have been doing the medium-sized 4x4 thing since the mid-1990s. Toyota launched the Rav4 over a decade ago, let's not forget. Only this ...
