Volkswagen Golf 1993 reviews
Pros: Good consumption. When driving with a roof rack, consumption either does not change or is minimal. Pretty brisk. Warm up quickly in winter. During these years, there have been every year in Poland (for a few years even 3-4 times), Slovakia, the Czech Republic, Hungary, Germany, Lithuania, Estonia. Every year in the summer for 10 - 12 days traveled through these countries. As somebody has already written, if it were possible to get such a new one, then without thinking it would take.
Cons: There may have been a slightly higher ground clearance, the boot lid was expensive to replace (used in normal condition - 200 €), the parking brake cables had to be changed regularly, the rear passenger windows sweat in wet weather, and if lowered, they cause unpleasant vibrations in the air when driving on the track.

Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Its small practic car, average low fuel consumption for a 24 year old car,funn to drive and quiet car, comfortable. never heard rattles and squicks, simple to maintain and low cost repairs and replacement parts and labor costs.
Cons: For some models its hard to find parts (engine parts) mine was 1.6 101hp and in my area barely could find engine parts. I should order from ebay and wait for 2-3 weeks to come. Electric windows are a bit slow and manual gearbox is the most awful thing in city traffic and it can be jerky sometimes.

Would recomend this car to the friend
Pros: Droved it across the Europe. A trusted and reliable car. I'm performing regular maintenance and replacing worn out parts, for Golf parts are not expensive. The last inspection without a single failure - deficiencies were not found: If I could buy 4th Golf new from dealer, then definitely would buy it instead of new models.
Cons: There is nothing negative.

Cons: Rust, no climate control
