First drive review: VW Golf


Volkswagen has created an all-new version of its iconic Golf. But does it succeed?


What is it?


After nearly 40 years of producing the Golf, you might have expected Volkswagen to have got it right by now. Well, that's indeed the case. The new, seventh-generation version of their celebrated small family car is VERY impressive. It's longer, wider, lower and more spacious, yet lighter and more efficient than ever. Available to order in the UK from October 18, the first models will be arriving in Britain in January 2013.
