Volkswgaen Golf (Mk IV)

The Golf MkIV shares its underpinnings with SEAT’s Leon (ranked 77th), so it’s no surprise they’re so close in the Top 100. But to see the VW in 85th for handling and 84th for reliability shows how far it had fallen from its perch. Its best score came for build quality – yet we expected better than 47th.

MANUFACTURER VERDICT

Oh dear! You’ve fallen out of love with VWs, – they may be practical and cheap to run but they disappoint nearly everywhere else. You tell us the gap between them and rivals is closing.
