I can’t believe it’s the 23rd of August again. I remember that Saturday afternoon when I went with my favorite VW shirt and all the enthusiasm that an 18 year old can have when picking up their new car. For its birthday I gave it a good was and took nice photos.
A lot has passed in that year but my Golf has always been there for me. I have gone to the beach, to 2 other states, to jungles and places I never thought a Golf would be able to cross before and it took it all like a champ. In this first year I have 0 complaints with reliability, or defect that the car could have. 15,000 kms later and it still pulls with the same might and gets me where I have to be in uttermost comfort and driving pleasure. 1st service has been done and only 1 tire has been the black dot in the otherwise clean sheet of ownership.
First day:
Today:
I will still take care of this car because of how damn good it is and how special it is to me. After a year it still smells like new, after a year I still don’t eat anything in it, after a year I still hand wash it to avoid scratches, after a year I still park at the lonely back spots and after a year it still brings the biggest smile to my face.
For every happy moment that you have given me and all the great times we will enjoy later, congratulations Golf!

Is the Jetta Touareg Passat Golf really a year old now? I’m glad to hear that it’s ok.
On a side note: Hola Vicente. How are you? I hope all is well. Tell the boys I said hello.

Does yours have the 1.8T? Manual or automatic? I’m cross shopping a bunch of hatchbacks right now and I’m curious :)

Nice ride! Facebook reminded me that on Aug 23 2010 I picked up my first Golf too!

Mine is a Mexican spec 1.4 TSI with 140hp and 180 torques. 6 speed manual of course.
I seriously couldn’t recommend it more, it is fantastic overall package.
