Vehicle details

This 2008 Volkswagen Golf S offers a compelling blend of practicality and economy, making it an excellent choice for everyday driving. Powered by a reliable 1.4 litre petrol engine, this model is known for its accessible insurance group, which can help keep running costs down. The Golf S variant provides a comfortable and functional interior, and you'll appreciate the generous boot space, perfect for shopping trips or luggage.

The low insurance group for this Volkswagen Golf S is a significant advantage, suggesting it is more affordable to insure than many comparable vehicles. Furthermore, the substantial boot space means you won't have to compromise on carrying capacity, setting it apart from other cars in its class. This combination of economical running and ample storage makes the 2008 Golf S a sensible and well rounded option.

Category write-offs

A vehicle that has been in an accident will be assessed by insurance companies and assigned a category: A, B, S or N. However, we only list Cat S or N cars as Cat A and B cars are not roadworthy and safe.

Category S (formerly Category C)

The 'S' in Cat S stands for structural damage. This means the vehicle has damage to its structure/chassis, which is more than just cosmetic damage. But the vehicle can be professionally repaired, making it safe and roadworthy.

Category N (formerly Category D)

Similarly, the 'N' in Cat N stands for non-structural damage. Here, the vehicle has sustained damage, but it has not affected the structure/chassis. A Cat N car is safe to drive as the damage could be minimal/cosmetic.

Buying a written-off vehicle:

Do a full vehicle history check to identify category vehicles.
Make sure to check with the dealer if a Cat S/N vehicle has been professionally repaired.
Book a vehicle inspection and our experts will look over a Category vehicle for you.
