Newest Review: ... the Passat it is a car for someone who can't quite afford the Passat, but needs a Golf with more space and practicality, ... more

 ... and has a little more money to spend. The Bora is obviously not considered to be a drivers car, and does not come with the V6 2.8, but does come in 2.3 V5 form, and is "sharp" to drive. It is a car of quality and refinement, like all Volkswagens, but could not possibly be as popular as the others. It is a bit of an odd one out, but I'd still buy it. ...more

Premium Review VW Bora in general: A wonderful car (133 words)

We have recently bought the TDI PD 115 bhp diesel version, and are absolutely delighted with it. Having driven only VWs for a very long time I can honestly say that it's the best yet (matched only by the Golf Estate). Everything about it has been well thought through and designed, it's beautifully put together, and the boot is enormous. If you thought diesels were slow, test drive the TDI PD. Superb acceleration (better than the 2 litre petrol model) and 121 mph top speed. A real rival to BMW/Mercedes, and at a much better price. So is the servicing. Check out the prices in the Netherlands - we saved around £4000, ...

The VW Bora 1.9TDI (110BHP) Sport is an excellent car. I have owned the above model for nearly a year and I am still in love with it. The noise of the engine is no more noticeable than that of a Petrol equivalent, the power is fantastic and the fuel economy superb. The BORA is a saloon version of a Golf and all the usual quality that you would expect from VW is there. My model has a host of extras that I could no longer do without. Automatic AC, Electric Windows and Mirrors, Automatic windscreen wipers that turn on and vary in speed with the density of the rain. Even the rear view mirror dims if the headlights of cars behind you are too bright. The ...

This is probably the most underrated car that VW currently make. It's looked upon as a Golf with a boot but that's unfair because it's streets ahead of the Golf. Although it shares the same floorpan and interior with the Golf it's refinement is one up on it's hatchback brother. Ride and handling are tighter with more of a sports feel. Build quality is simply amazing. Close your eyes and think Audi. In fact, unless you're a badge snob, then buying an Audi is a sheer waste of money. This does it all superbly. Excellent equipment levels and amazing residuals. ...
