CraftyBristolian's review of Volkswagen Golf 1.9 GT TDi 130 Mk4

“Too good to be true”

★★★★★

written by CraftyBristolian on 20/02/2012

Bought this car from my then employer (Lloyds Bank). Ex-company car - well looked after and only 28k on clock. Despite colour description in logbook (beige!!) everyone agrees it's a light gold metallic. Car drives like a dream. It's the 130bhp model and the it's also my first diesel. Build quality cannot be faulted - the dash is as good as a BMW. Seats comfortable and vision excellent. Climate control keeps temperature steady. Road noise can intrude on some surfaces however. Performance is great - 35mph per 1000rpm means motorway cruising is v relaxed. Sips the fuel too. It's a job getting less than 40mpg. Ready to change but car of my dreams (a GTD 170bhp) just too dear! TDI 140 and remap beckons!
