Volkswagen Golf 
2014 marks a year of transition for the Golf line-up, with the current generation about to make way for the seventh generation in May. We already knew that the R would be disappearing this year in order to come back stronger in 2015 and that the three- and five-door versions will be only offered as Wolfsburg versions and in limited quantity, which goes for the GTI as well. The wagon isn’t undergoing any changes and keeps both of Volkswagen’s traditional engines – the five-cylinder and a diesel.
Pros
- Great DSG gearbox
- Precise manual transmission
- Engines that deliver
- Direct and precise ride
Cons
- The R isn't back for 2014
- Resale value has dropped (6th generation)
- Some trims are costly
- Three-door model is not very practical
