Could suit you if…
- Many journeys are local or relatively short: petrol can fit that use without choosing diesel just for occasional long trips.
- You want practical access for everyday shopping and bags: the hatchback opening may suit your routine. Check actual boot space.
- You would prefer less gear changing in traffic: the recorded automatic transmission may suit. Try how this exact gearbox behaves on a test drive.
Think twice if…
- You need room for several children or extra passengers: the seat count is not recorded. Confirm this exact version's seats and child-seat fit; do not assume from the model name.
- You need predictable ownership costs: at around 10 years old and 82,366 km, check maintenance records and upcoming work. Mileage alone does not tell you the car's condition.
This is general guidance about this type of car and your needs — not an inspection or approval of this individual car.
This is the Mk7 Golf generation (2012–2019); petrol automatics from 2016 are commonly 1.2/1.4 TSI engines paired with VW’s DSG dual‑clutch gearbox, though some markets have torque‑converter autos — confirm which you’re looking at. The petrol DSG combos are smooth and economical in mixed use but the DSG needs periodic oil/fluence service and repairs to the mechatronics or clutch packs can be costly. Petrols are generally quieter and cleaner in town than older diesels, but check whether the engine uses a timing belt or chain and the replacement history if it’s a belt unit.
- DSG behaviour and service history — look for smooth shifts, no judder and a recent DSG oil/filter change (≈every 60k km).
- Boost/turbo hoses and intercooler for leaks and oil residues — common wear items on TSI engines.
- Confirm timing belt vs timing chain and replacement history — if it’s a belt engine it should have been replaced per VW interval.
- Front suspension top mounts, anti‑roll bar links and bushings for wear or knocks (age-related on a 10‑year car).
- Check underside and wheel‑arch seams for corrosion, and brake discs/pad wear and handbrake operation.
