Hmmmm, where can I buy a brand new first-generation Volkswagen Golf?

In South Africa, of course. In case you didn’t know, RSA still produces new MkI Golfs and sells them with semi-updated interiors and motors. VWVortex has a profile on one owner who has already replaced the dash with one from a Skoda Fabia and plans to swap a turbo engine into his Black Magic four-door hatch. His Citi Golf Life 1.6i looks very sharp with a minimum of exterior mods, proving the classic design’s longevity, and I’m sure it’s one big old hootenanny to drive, especially compared to more modern, heavier VWs.
