I am aslo a happy owner of MK4 1.4. Yeah it has no any power in that engine but the suspension and headling - just great!

I have been fortunate to test a vw golf tdi 1.9 asv unit from 2001, standard power 81kw. In relatively good condition. It is a car that delivers power from first gear from 3100 revs. It is a vehicle that stands the years very well both in bodywork and mechanics. Although it is uncomfortable to drive in town, it is very comfortable to drive on secondary roads.
I own that exact car. It's underpowered imo. Driving in the city is OK, but never go to serpentines. Sometimes you have to go to 1st gear to drive up serpentines... Also overtaking is dangerous because of lack of power...
I've had a mk4 1.9 pd150 gt tdi mapped to 190hp but rust and other engine issues killed it so now im in a 1.6 16v that is 103hp, This feels painfully slow at times I can only imagine what the 1.4 feels like

My dad has a mk 4 that sounds way better, maybe bc we’re both mechanics that take care of it, or it is the fat v5 in the car? But it sure doesn’t sound like crap and i know that for a fact
I had this car as my first, it only costed me 600 to buy with 160k Kilometers down. I made inspection 100 euros, 4 new tires 200 Euros und 100 Euros for new oil, filters etc. So all in all I payed 1000 Euros and that is so cheap and I drove so much with it . 160 on Autobahn no Problem for 200 Kilometers straight multiple times.

450 euro car. Thats what im looking for now. Just got my driving licenses. Everyone is saying to get golf mk4. Best first car. Cheap, reliable and easy/not so expensive to fix. I also live near a mechanic, so... ;D
One of my relatives had a Golf 4, like 5-6 years ago but it was 1.9 TDI…it was very practical, fun and reliable (he now has a 2003 Passat which it’s also 1.9 TDI, but not reliable as that Golf 4 he had)
I tested my brakes last night from 60-0 MPH mine is the 1.9 pd130 3 door. Stopping power is good for the age! The brake pedal did judder a bit but of course that's just the abs kicking in.
Very good brakes on volkswagen cars i see. I drove a VW touran 2.0 tdi which is very heavy and had an emergency stop from 80kmph, it stopped very fast which had me impressed. Good affordable cars.
Cool 450€, here in Ukraine you can buy that for about 4k before last changes in tax rules, now about 2,5k I suppose bought my wagon for 4.5r usd and now after all fixes and repairs spendings moved over 10k USD, but I still like it
This brings back memories... Had to sell my Golf 4 with that 1.4l engine last year... Well, i'm rocking a way better car now, but as it was my first car, im still sad when i think back at it :(
Used to own 1.6l estate as my first car, worse thing about this car were the doors, they often freeze turning winter and wouldn't stay shut had to literally use fire from lighter to get the door latch working.😅
@@kriskt4754 i can understand, but luckily never had this as a problem. I remember only one time my door lock freezed up, but as i knew this will happen sooner or later i was prepared. For me only the central lock never worked, like everytime you open and someone wants to enter on the passenger seat, you say waaaaait, have to open from inside, or even worse, only the driver door locks. So you gotta go around and lock every door manually...
I live in a country full of mountains, our work horses r Golfs, mostly MK 4-6s, i would only suggest 1.9 TDI Diesel versions. They have a lot of parts, r cheap, and fast enough when u want to overtake on highway
