Summary****-

  • Impressively large boot, refined ride, high-quality interior, economical engines, good to drive
  • Rear legroom somewhat limited, essentially a facelift of the previous model

Don't be fooled by the new grille and sharper headlights - this Golf isn't strictly an all new model as Volkswagen makes out, but essentially a revised version of the previous car. That's no bad thing though as the Golf Estate is an excellent family car with a surprisingly cavernous boot and an excellent reliability record. It has been improved further with an upgraded dashboard, even better cabin refinement and a range of frugal engines. There's also an impressively economical Bluemotion Technology version that is capable of 67mpg. Like the standard Golf, it's easy and enjoyable to drive whether in town or on the motorway, while its compact dimensions make it simple to park. There's even a system available called Park Assist which actually steers the car into parallel spaces for you.
