The latest model Volkswagen Golf 6 debuted at the Paris Motor Show in 2008, and was designed by the chief designer of Volkswagen, Walter de'Silva. Hailed as an innovation in aerodynamic design, the Golf 6 boasted great fuel efficiency all while running quieter than its predecessor.
There are three trims: S, SE and GT. SE is expected to be the most popular, with a meaty standard spec including 16 inch alloys, seven air-bags, air-con, cruise control, gloss-black trim inlays, rain-sensing wipers, dark-sensing lamps and heated mirrors. As with most German cars you can spend a fortune on extras, but the Golf has lots of good toys on the options list including intelligent cruise control that automatically maintains a distance from the car in front, rear parking cameras, reverse parking programs (you work the pedals, it does the steering) and adaptive chassis control.
The petrol engine range comprises a 79 bhp 1.4-litre, a 101 bhp 1.6-litre and two versions of the 1.4-litre TSI delivering 120 bhp and 158 bhp respectively. The diesel option is the latest common-rail, fuel-injected, turbocharged 2.0-litre already used in the Skoda Superb and Audi A4. It is predicted to be the UK's most popular engine choice and is offered in 108 bhp and 138 bhp guises. Transmissions include five- and six-speed manual 'boxes and the dual-clutch DSG with six or seven speeds.
