My first car is a Golf 4. 1.4 16 v. I'm still driving it, I love it.
My first car is vw bora 1.6
Just bought my first one today
How is the fuel consumption? I'm thinkig about to by the same car but in Germany is fuel quite expensive for young people...
@@lukejordan2617 how is the fuel consumption?
@@oskah0239 haven’t drove it yet needs mot
The best car testing channel back at it.
Its a great channel but by far not the best testing channel. Not even close
I’m totally ok
you should check out auto top nl
@@laddtryck I know about em already, however the fact that this guy usually pushes the cars in every way is the enjoyable part, espicially when its a cheap car and he just goes ham lmao.
Vw Golf mk4 the legend.
If I fuel my 1.4 up, it’s slow as shit. When I hit half the gas tank or below it becomes a lot quicker 😂 life hacks
I never fill mine up always just half of the tank. I top it up only when I know I am going for a long trip :D
Same Smart Fortwo :D
loose the spare wheel in the boot. it will go even faster. :P
@@benaarsify too paranoid ill need it 😂😂
@@benaarsify you are totally right, i forgot to remove it ^^
Braking distance in metres is a great addition for the video!! Keep up with the good work!!!

LOVE the specs on the grass, that one is a great idea!
this is probably the best channel out there
after the video: ADD: 1L Oil 10L Gasoline
only 1 L of oil lolol I have this car a piece of crap
Is there any diff between 1.4 in Ibiza 3 and golf 4 because I havent heard about oil problems in my 1.4 bky just diesel sound defect :D
Golf mk4 se mi mega libi :D velmi pěkné video
Top, comme d'habitude !
wow. 2k views in 2 hours. awesome video as always TopAuto POV
My first car back in 2009👌🚦🛣🚀🚀🚀 1.4......every 2 weeks oil top up....and drove it for 2 years with no problems.🤗 200km/h was maximum I reached!😉
200km/h??? 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@mateuszt2231 Could be downhill and tailwind, had a friend who had an old Ford Ka and got 190kmh with it.

I also have a Golf 4 1.4 and what happiness! This car has a soul! I also drive a BMW X5 45e but I have more fun in golf! I love it ! And the sound of the engine what a pleasure
I am aslo a happy owner of MK4 1.4. Yeah it has no any power in that engine but the suspension and headling - just great! Golg mk4 makes some emotions in cruising across streets or working with it's stearing wheel in some powerslide. I think that mk4 has a nice talent in turning with some speed and have small fuel consumption by the way!
@@pilnykalexander8471 Totally alright man

pěkný video, frajer
I have been fortunate to test a vw golf tdi 1.9 asv unit from 2001, standard power 81kw. In relatively good condition. It is a car that delivers power from first gear from 3100 revs. It is a vehicle that stands the years very well both in bodywork and mechanics. Although it is uncomfortable to drive in town, it is very comfortable to drive on secondary roads.
That’s actually the car I owned before my current one. Unfortunately I didn’t knew this 1.4l engine is known for being problematic before buying.
How is the car other then the engine, for example if you get it with a reliable one instead? Do you think it's worth it as a first car?
1.6 has way more problems. The 1.4 is kinda a pretty good engine. The knocking sound you hear with 1.4 doesnt cause major damage btw
@@stefbell6539 Depends on what 1.6 engine, 1.6 8v the most reliable from all available engines on this car.
@@Boroldin also 1.9 TDI 110ps realy realy good engine. I had one in Leon Mk1. 200kkm 0 problema, still driving today in buyers hand.
I have the 1.4 59kW in my Golf 5. Burns Oil.
I remember when my driver-side power window used to work. Ah, good times
oooh man that nostalgie when i see the motor, with my first car a golf 1.4 1999, the best part was fueling more oil then patrol, but i need to say they drive really smooth probably should go for a 1.6 without oil problems xd
i can almost remind the smell of that car, so many memories
Hey my man first of all i would like to tell you that your content rocks,awesome test's and details Second i would like you to suggest,if you are able to find a suzuki sx4 or fiat sedici for those types of test Stay awesome and have a good one,cheers!
I had the mk4 1.6 as my first car. Great little car!
16v or 8v?

Had this as a rental car while my honda was in garage. the Volkswagen Golf 1.4 is a very well driving car. like the interior
Love it..great video
i own it almost 1 and half year and i had quote some ups and downs with it but i really enjoy it almost 338k kilometers on the clock going strong! :)
A foot cam view would be very nice with your double clutch shifting action. Thanks :)
I rememeber this sound...had a 16V Scirocco. 30 years later, still wish I had it. Haven't drive a more all around fun car since...
Nice pov
Thanks for your short look at the rear seats when you sitting in the car. So simple thing but almost nobody doing it.
The best part is the little "hmm" sound he makes while he does it :D
Wow this Golf is really modern!!!
Golf 4 my favorite car
Maszyna
driving in reverse parts are the best :))
I remember doing this in my mother's Golf SDI 🤣 Reverse and doing 360 spin!
Con una suspensión este coche es otro mundo, tengo el tdi 1.9 con una suspensión koni y se nota, con 90cv y 415000km a sus espaldas sigue trazando como un pincel.
A mi, me va a penar mucho cuando me lo quite....

One of my relatives had a Golf 4, like 5-6 years ago but it was 1.9 TDI…it was very practical, fun and reliable (he now has a 2003 Passat which it’s also 1.9 TDI, but not reliable as that Golf 4 he had)
it’s the same engine.
Precisely now I'm searching a car like this ....nice video, good test!!!!
Pls dont buy the 1.4 / 1.6 go atleast for 1.8 or buy a Golf V / VI
@@nemesisblack00 thanks for the advice!!!!
@@karolteperek jup, i got the same car right now ^^. Overall it's okay, mine is btw way quicker.. i am doing 12.9 0-100, max speed 182km/h (alone), mine is in a really good condition with 230.000km still driving great. But.. 75hp is not good for daily autobahn, sadly i have to drive this car "until it breaks" because i am a student with not a lot of money.
Nice test 🤣😇💙💙
I own that exact car. It's underpowered imo. Driving in the city is OK, but never go to serpentines. Sometimes you have to go to 1st gear to drive up serpentines... Also overtaking is dangerous because of lack of power...
I've had a mk4 1.9 pd150 gt tdi mapped to 190hp but rust and other engine issues killed it so now im in a 1.6 16v that is 103hp, This feels painfully slow at times I can only imagine what the 1.4 feels like
bullshit just floor it
@@JayHowi Did you mentioned rust and mk4 golf in same sentence?
Классная машина 🤙
Dude which city is this?It's so beautiful.Everytime i watch this guy's videos,i'm imperessed by this calm and fresh city.
Any germen town or city .
Great batch.
The condition of the interior is pretty amazing considering age and mileage.
Those interiors were well built. Unless totally abused thay all look like this.
@@dopiaza2006 no, the soft touch paint on the plastic parts is pretty messed up in most golf 4 ive seen and the ones i had too
Can’t believe it’s driven more then 200k well maybe it’s quite common in Germany but I drove my Skoda Octavia around 160k and still feel like a lot! Just made a POV of it and still runs great 🛣
amazing how you managed to make an entire video without the engine breaking 😲
this engine is extremely reliable
Only me relax these videos? 😅
Very nice videos.
best car ever
Im scared to go past 140km/h in mine props to you :D
If it’s well kept and in good running condition I don’t see any reason as to why you should feel scared (except maybe a speeding ticket).
I got mine to like 172kmh
@@f1k0v48 Were You going down a hill or something?
@@ax-crazy the max speed is officially about 170, It was slightly downhill on the autobahn, otherwise its about 160
Soooo nice 👌 just show us the Renault R25 in next times 🤔
it is almost an art to have such a low specific power output with 4 valves and 350cc cylinders, hats off to Volkswagen
From the video preview, at first I thought it was some kind of game xD
Very good brakes on volkswagen cars i see. I drove a VW touran 2.0 tdi which is very heavy and had an emergency stop from 80kmph, it stopped very fast which had me impressed. Good affordable cars.
Had one once in Brazil, but it was 2.0L 116HP, was a really awesome car back then

Possibly the worst engine ever built by VW. The 1.8 that followed it however was a beauty.
@@dopiaza2006 no it sounds good
@@City1Tiger no it doesn't. It was a powerless junker, but they run forever. The 1.8t was one of the best they made for power, reliability, efficiency, and sound imo
the engine sounds at idle exactly like all the others in this generation. crap. Nice testing!
thet car he was testing is in a bad shape i have the same 1,4 petrol in my vw bora and its sounds so much diffrent on idel and when u drive it full gas
@@safersisic9562 i know it is on bad shape, but most of them sound like this, tappety and clicky since they crap piston rings, crap alloys used in the block construction, which is aluminum. Most of them need segmentation at barely 150k km, whereas the tdis in this generation easily do over 500k. All in all a failure, the 1.6 8v ASR engine that is from golf 3 is a much better and stronger engine.
My dad has a mk 4 that sounds way better, maybe bc we’re both mechanics that take care of it, or it is the fat v5 in the car? But it sure doesn’t sound like crap and i know that for a fact
@@fedor5664 v5 obviously sounds better since it being a 5 cylinder
i have mine with 300k kilometers and doesnt sound like this at all
Nice it was my first car.

One of the best cars for young people
I had this car as my first, it only costed me 600 to buy with 160k Kilometers down. I made inspection 100 euros, 4 new tires 200 Euros und 100 Euros for new oil, filters etc. So all in all I payed 1000 Euros and that is so cheap and I drove so much with it . 160 on Autobahn no Problem for 200 Kilometers straight multiple times.
