Samochód idealny😍 jak każdy Golf z resztą. Filmik oczywiście pierwsza klasa👌

[Shithappenswhenu]

Hated the mk8 when first launched,
but starting to really like them now especially in R line!

[KS-xgpk]

I ordered one, this is the video I have been waiting for a long time. Great video Thank you!

[davidcasas]

The engine is pretty good, quiet and resolutive but....I must confess that my blood doesn't have adrenaline listening the name Golf since many generations....good test Joe!!!!

[danielpillay]

This video is really great, doing the homework on the vehicle and wanted to see a video like this, awesome coverage Joe Black, was 2 minded about the brand but kinda mind made up now...

Beautiful ride, love the video Joe!
Did you like this one more than the new Leon?

I tak samo jeśli chodzi o ten elektryczny hamulec ręczny, bo widziałem że też masz problem. Żeby spóścić ręczny trzeba dać w dół i puścić a jak zaciągnąć to do góry i puścić. Nie ty tak robisz że ty jak wrzucasz załóżmy bieg wsteczny to ty dajesz do przodu i tak trzymasz, albo po kilka razy dajesz do przodu nie trzeba trzymać tego. Tak jak mówię bieg wsteczny do przodu od razu puszczasz jak d to do tyłu i od razu puszczasz. Tak tylko piszę na przyszłość.

In the Paleolithic era, the commercial mind of Volkswagen ... Other car brands offer the small tax for the 1.5 cc diesel with a state-of-the-art 8 or 9-speed automatic transmission, while Volkswagen has abolished the small diesel engine. They have very "nice minds" in Wolfsburg ...

Please do the 0-100 in Sport and not in Eco mode next time.

Is this Golf VIII more comfortable and isolated (both in the city and on the highway at high speeds) than the new BMW 1er ?

[johnf]

is R Line's 1500cc 150ps machine more noisy in the cabine because of its sportivness, than Style's 1500cc 150ps edition?

[adamglus]

I love this car 🚗😃
Very good video👍👍
Please NIGHT DRIVE 😄😁

[zbyleq]

What would you chose this or 2024 corolla 2.0 hybrid, also whcih one is more quiet ?

[gabrielbruel]

this car, it my dream, but so sad, he didn't come to brazil...

[filips]

Cześć Joe słuchaj chciałbym Ci powiedzieć jak naprzykład teraz wrzuciłeś Bieg wsteczny i wystarczy tylko ten języczek do przodu i puścić nie trzeba się siłować, ani klikać kilka razy. Piszę Ci tak, bo widziałem w kilku filmach na przykład w filmie z Volvo XC40 opublikowany 21.10.2019 widziałem że jak wrzucałeś d to robiłeś to kilka razy wrzucałeś trzeba dać temu swobody. Tak jak mówię żeby wrzucić bieg wsteczny tylko do przodu i puścić jak d to do tylu i póścić.

[johnf]

Does sb know if its more noisy from the style edition?

[stijn]

Imagine: Doing acceleration with the ECO modus... haha

[Darrentzx]

Hi Joe, this mk8 golf compared to a Used F20 lci bmw 118i. Which would you pick?

[shallo]

How can the fuel economy be so bad in a small 1.5 engine
