Good for taking stuff to the tip/towing trailers and m/way journey's.

You'll get 55+ mpg from them.

Solid cars.

Mum and husband have one-had it for circa 8 years. Had very few issues with it.

The septics gripe about modern VW reliability issues.

I dunno whether it's because it's heresy to diss German cars here, or whether they are more picky across the pond, or if there are simply less issues here because of the milder climate.

The 130 or the 150 PD are far better cars IMO - Both have the same interior as the GTi.
