Volkswagen Golf 1.5 TSI Life 5dr Petrol Hatchback, , To paraphrase a famous quote the report of the VW Golfs death may have been an exaggeration, but its true this benchmark hatchback is at something of a crossroads. For decades the perfect combination of size, performance and practicality, the Golfs real trick was a classless sense of prestige able to cut it in any company. These days, though, it feels like its being quietly superseded by its all-electric ID.3 relative, even if VW insists itll still be around for a while yet. A reworking of the previous Golf, this current one is still very accomplished but feels whisper it just a little half-hearted given the standards set by its predecessors, the quality of rivals like the Vauxhall Astra and Peugeot 308, and even the Seat and Cupra branded Leons it shares so much with. As everyone rushes to buy crossovers and SUVs of various sizes a trip in a Golf is a reminder that, as always, for most people this is really all the car you need. Our test cars pale interior felt light and airy, with comfy seats and general sense of refinement. You might want to consider darker materials if you have a family, though! In practical terms the Golf remains a good size for most needs, with enough room in the back for adults to ride in reasonable comfort, a boot large enough to carry what you need and an overall size thats easy to park and drive in busy traffic.
