Probably the most forgettable of all Golfs has to be the Mk3.
My mother had one for many years and I spent plenty of my childhood being carted about in it.
Although entirely dependable and obscenely efficient, the straight diesel engine gave me a new found appreciation for anything with a turbocharger. If you know, you know.
In my experience these are also one of those cars where the interiors always smell a certain way. Was it a glue or certain material VW used at the time? I’m not sure, but I’m willing to bet the interior of this P reg one has exactly the same whiff as our old one did all those years ago.
It’s purely subjective, but I think the looks haven’t aged too badly. There’s hardly any of these left now, so seeing this slightly crusty local example always improves my day a little.
