Volkswagen Golf 2018
The 2018 Golf petrol is a fundamentally sound, well-engineered vehicle with good build quality and predictable running costs. Petrol engines in this generation are robust, though early TSI units can suffer carbon buildup; the major weak point is the DSG dual-clutch gearbox, which has a documented history of shuddering and hesitation. Overall a reliable daily driver if the gearbox behaves, with reasonable maintenance costs and strong parts availability.
