There aren’t many manufacturers that offer the practical aspects of safety, quality and reliability combined with the emotional pull of beauty, driveability and even love - but Volkswagen manage to pretty much nail it.
As you might expect with a German brand, Volkswagen are best known for superb engineering and a premium fit and finish on all models. VW cars look amazing and feel fantastic to drive, with an excellent safety record to boot.
“Volkswagen” translated literally means “People’s car” and with such a huge spectrum of models that seem to be continually popular, you can see where they’re coming from! From the tiny baby of the VW group, the Up!, to the iconic and sporty Golf - there’s a Volkswagen model to suit everyone.
The two best-selling VW cars in the UK – the Golf and the Polo have both been around for 40 years which is testament to the endurance of quality and design that we have come to expect from Volkswagen.
The Golf’s desirability never seems to fade making it a legend in the motoring world. What makes this hatchback such an ongoing favourite? It could be its timeless good looks; it could be that the size make it adaptable to suit your every need or it could be that it is truly dependable and drives like a dream.
Like the Golf, the VW Polo is a firm favourite, especially with new and young drivers. It’s compact but still looks classy. It’s surprisingly spacious and is hard to beat for value.
