EVERY GENERATION VW GOLF GTI - SIDE BY SIDE COMPARISON

Volkswagen has the reputation of making some of the best selling cars of all time which include the Volkswagen Beetle, Volkswagen Bus as well as the Volkswagen Golf. In 1976, Volkswagen offered a performance-orientated variant of the Golf which they named the GTI, and thus a legend was born!


Fast forward 45 years and we are now on the 8th generation of the Golf GTI and it still remains one of Volkswagens best-selling cars of all time.
