I've had a Golf since 2001, and have had loads on hire. With a Golf you know exactly what you will get. They all feel 99% the same. A very capable and competent design which will eat up the miles effortlessly. Our GTD is a fantastic car, and I love it.
But getting back into the Golf after a long journey puts it into perspective. It's a cocoon of insulated comfort, arguably better than our sofa. The ride is quiet and smooth, and an idiot could drive it easily...................
Our Polo GTI is actually much better dynamically than the Golf. Sharper all round and a much sportier drive, it's amazing.
But compared to the Morgan, neither come close, and we will always use the Morgan if we can...........journeys should be part of the fun, and modern cars just don't deliver.
