Description
2016 Golf "MK7" TDI 1.6L Automatic DSG Euro6 "ULEZ Champion" 20/yr tax, 225/yr insurance, 75mpg, low running costs
For sale: The best car I've ever owned: 2016 66-plate (Nov) VW Golf 1.6L TDI Match spec diesel. Very loved and well cared for, nicknamed "Lima" (due to reg starting with GL - Golf Lima). We're very sad to see her go, but we've been lucky enough to move to a house where home EV charging is possible and makes an EV slightly cheaper to run. It's been a terrific car and has saved us money at every turn (Lowest insurance in class, lowest road tax, lowest fuel cost, low maintenance). Fast and very responsive, and quiet even at highway speeds 70mph+. Drives smooth and quiet. Always PASSED every MOT with flying colours, and has never needed major works (see maintenance section below for what was done). HPI-clear (click for link), UK only model, 2nd owner (past 5 years), Never categorised. First Registered: 2016 11 17. Totally loaded car with TOP safety and comfort features. We had VW warranty throughout owning it (available for your purchase direct from VW) and only had to use it once to replace a gear selector sensor. Enquire today - this one won't last!
INSURANCE (Reg GL66 OWR) - as little as 225/year! Dependent on your driving record and location of course
For minimal coverage: As low as 225/yr Fire/Theft (using gocompare)
OR if you want maximum coverage: As low as 340 for Comprehensive (using gocompare)
Little known fact: low-mileage cars (annualised) have LOWER insurance than high-mileage cars! Because this car has been driven so little every year the insurers class it as a low risk.
