As so often with Volkswagen, this model also comes quite late on the market. During the preparations for the production of the recording available from September all-new seventh generation of the compact car at full speed, the cabriolet is still on the current platform. And this for at least five to six years. A small flaw in the eyes of any motorist who would like to have a vehicle according to the latest technical standards. How big the difference in handling characteristics and technical capabilities between old and new, in fact, you will see, however, until the autumn, when the new Golf is available at dealerships.
Our test car is quite modest, with the small diesel engine fitted. Want to enjoy a good choice for drivers who drive open and not constantly be on the road with the highest speeds have. The 1.6-liter diesel engine is a bit grumpy, but sparingly, and equipped primarily with enough force. 105 hp and 250 Nm of torque sound but not really after, but actually, the four-cylinder with a 1.5-ton convertible few problems.
Only when starting to make the diesel a short period of weakness, then receives the crankshaft always enough pressure, 1500-2500 r / min is always even, the maximum torque available. Exactly in the speed range in which one moves this vehicle with this type motorization much. Only beyond the 180 km / h on the motorway past the acceleration. The Golf is still dragging on up to 188 km / h, according to Speedo, it was actually just over 200 cases. But that's not the world that vehicle, who wants to drive this fast convertible, should take the GTI version.
Our golf had other well-known properties: a foolproof chassis, in which the ESP itself has to intervene in a very fast cornering and hard times return. A comfortable, yet sufficiently close tuned suspension, steering, and a soulful great seats and a surprising amount of space on the two rear seats and the trunk (250 liters). This is a fantastic, always electrically operable roof that not only felt in ten seconds to open, but holds its own closed: The Golf Cabrio is as quiet as almost any other vehicle of this type.
In the course steered by our BlueMotion version with the small diesel will cost the Wolfsburg least $34,669.32. After all, air conditioning, electric lifter for all four windows, a remote-controlled central locking, power mirrors, and so too does the electric hood on board. Everything else costs extra charge and there is always at VW as much from elsewhere.
On the other hand: Actually, it takes not much more for the fun of driving. The truly reduced to the necessary equipment even increases the pleasure, but you can concentrate on what's important and original - the open ride on a beautiful spring day.
