The Volkswagen Golf has been Europe’s
favorite car for the last eight years. Going
further back, it has been shown that ever
since the car debuted in 1974, the Golf has
steadily endeared itself to the European
car-buying public. They were taken by its
style, performance, and reliability, making it a
true car for the masses in the way VW had
envisioned the Beetle to be.
You can probably sense we only Googled
that.
Truth is, we don’t know jack shit about the
Golf. We’ve only ever had a real appreciation
of the car when it was launched just last
April; the Volkswagen Philippines Group,
owned by the Ayalas, only set up shop in
2013. Sure, we know VW, but still mostly due
to Beetle nostalgia.
