Think hot-hatch and the first car that comes to mind would be the Volkswagen Golf. Well, the Golf did literally invent the term back in its rallying heydays for its well-balanced set-up that makes its driving experience a hot-topic 50 years on. In Malaysia, a used VW Golf GTI can be purchased for as low as RM 65,000, should you get one? For this used car guide, we’re focussing on the VW Golf GTI Mk6 and Mk7.

一提到小钢炮，大部分人第一时间想到的肯定是Volkswagen Golf。确实，小钢炮这个词就是由Golf创造的。在那个拉力赛车的黄金时代，VW Golf凭借着平衡的车身重量分配脱颖而出，而其充满乐趣的驾驶体验，也成为了50年来人们津津乐道的话题。现在，在马来西亚，一辆二手的VW Golf GTI，最低只需RM 65k就能买到，但这笔买卖到底划不划算呢？ 在这次的二手车选购指南中，我们要来看看VW Golf GTI Mk6和Mk7。在选购这款二手的标志性小钢炮时，都有哪些问题需要你多加注意呢？ 常见问题 我们先从常常被忽略的一个重要问题开始，那就是Golf的双离合变速箱（DCT），VW也将其称为DSG变速箱。Golf的变速箱问题是众所周知的，尤其是在Mk6上。但其实，这具变速箱的问题在普通的Golf 1.4 TSI车型上更为常见。 Golf GTI上的DSG变速箱是经过加强设计的，如果上一任车主有认真阅读车主手册，并定时进行更换离合器等保养服务（费用在RM 2,500到RM 4,000左右），那么变速箱通常不会有什么大问题的。 但假如这具DSG变速箱真的出问题了，那么通常都是由于机电方

The godfather of hot hatchbacks is now in its eighth generation, known as the Golf GTI Mark 8 (Mk8). It retains the same formula as before, with a 2.0-litre turbocharged 4-cylinder engine powering the front wheels. How fast is the 2020 Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk8? The EA888 engine, now in its fourth generation, produces 245 PS/370 Nm and will almost certainly be paired to the 7-speed wet dual-clutch transmission (DSG) when it arrives in Malaysia.

Surprise, surprise. It looks like the 2020 Volkswagen Golf GTI Mk8 stealthily got on our shores as one was recently spotted testing on Genting roads. Decked in Kings Red Metallic, we can tell that this is a GTI by a few ways: a telltale badge on its grille, front fascia design, unique wheels and twin-tailpipes. Is it CKD? Judging by how its unusual for CBU cars to wear Pahang trade plates and VW has a plant in Pekan, this likely points that the GTI is being worked on there. Which could mean that

When the 200 PS Toyota 86 was first launched in Malaysia in 2012, its asking price was RM 243,000 for the manual, and RM 249,000 for the automatic variant.
