VW..a money pit car..beware..the repairs are costly nightmares.
You mean to say honda is also endless pit money cars as well as the repairs are costly nightmares
Syukur… existing VW resale value will be stronger after new car price increase :D
Everyone else too
if not because of notorious vw issues esp the gear box that scare me even though with the changes it has done, I really want to buy the golf gti with the price. Even though it offers less features compared to other but the fun of driving and yet comfort can compensate for the lack of features. Those that always say jap car is handled better now, esp for mazda die hard fans, go n try the golf gti first and tell me which model is comparable with golf.
VPCM company now is not like the last time. Gearbox have already upgraded though using DSG. All vw models don’t have AEB but do have lane assist, side assist, post collision braking and area view camera.
I have already stated in my post. Even though they have done something but still scare from their notorious pass experiences. Only time can tell now. Phobia to own one. Buying a car realy need o think of every aspects so that I will not regret of my own choices. This is the main reason why Toyota can be the largest automaker because it able to provide confidence to the buyers. Look the GM that was once largest because of their problematic cars.
FWD is the low spec key here.
But performance for VW is great
I was having same thought as you bro. I’m currently driving MK8 and at first, same as other Japanese cars but after a while switching between my Vios and GTI, feel very different. VW Malaysia did a good job offering affordable hot hatch. Those jokers complaint say no this, no that, and when VW offer all required spec, say too expensive.
seriously u comparing vios and golf? come on man
My friends that owns a Golf GTI mk7 and myself too (A3 1.8T 2015) had no issues with the gearbox with almost 150k KM driven. Only those with the dry clutch had issues, thankfully none of us bought those.
They do need to start adding AEB and other safety features though, even Perodua cars have it now.
i have a golf gti mk7 too, no issues with gearbox or engine. almost 90k mileage now. only thing big that died recently was aircond compressor.
Is it expensive to change the aircond compressor?
Those who talks about gti and then goes on about easy spoiled dsg, do not know jackshit about what they talking. Smh
Honda fanboys have already been spending their free time by whacking volkswagen with baseless claim.
