PROS Iconic hot hatch Volkswagen build quality Everyday usability Performance Overview The Volkswagen Golf GTI is a hot hatch icon. The original set the template in the 1970s, the Mk2 was a legend of the 1980s and while a few generations subsequently missed the target, the 2005 Mk5 marked a triumphant return to form. The Mk7 Golf GTI we're looking at here is arguably the best yet maybe the finest Golf GTI ever, as we move to an all-electric future. A simply brilliant car to drive even in its 2013 launch spec, several special versions over the years simply added to the enjoyment (and added to the engine power). It was offered in three-door and five-door guise: this is the last Golf GTI to be available as a three-door.
