Volkswagen Golf 2000 Overview

The fourth generation of the VW Golf was a huge success during its long run. The clean and conservative styling combined with a vague sense of being a status symbol made it a hit among well-to-do yuppies. Available only as a 5-door hatchback here, with a variety of engine options upgraded over the years. Even a 4Motion all-wheel-drive model is available, though it may be hard to find in these parts. After its 1998 makeover, the Golf got considerably more tasteful inside, with nicely contrasting colours and patterns. The cabin offers sufficient room for six-footers, while the rear compartment is as small as any other compact. The cargo area under the hatch is huge for a compact, and the rear seats fold flat. Available features included power windows, electric mirrors, power-adjustable front seats, sunroof, alloy wheels and more, depending on trim level. A pair of airbags is standard on all models, with some getting side airbags as well, while ABS is standard. Engines included 1.6-litre and 2.0-litre 4-cylinder motors. Sportier early models included the FWD or AWD GTI with a 2.3-litre V5, and an AWD 4Motion model with a 2.8-litre V6. In the later years, the V5 got more power. For its premium price, equipment levels were limited, with an underlying platform that had independent front and torsion-beam rear suspension.
