Mmmm but still the same model name, a Golf is a Golf whatever year and the same applies to a Beetle.  I doubt there is much that can be swapped over between a late 40's Split and a late 70s 1303.  Different engine, different suspension front and rear, different brake system different body panels, different glass, just to name the obvious stuff.

I think its a bit of fix then if you look at it this way then... Toyota Corolla at 35 million - The first car to achieve thirty million sales. ford escort over 20 million, fiat uno over 8 million.  and all these figures inluding the golf vary depending on where you look!

Yeah I seem to remember the Beetle production figure being surpassed a while ago but couldn't remember what or when.

Also forgot about the 'new' Beetle, should that be included on the production run or should it be in the Golf's figures :undecided:

Why is life so complicated  :grin:

It's info like this that should be easily found on manufacturers websites as surely they know the correct figures and we can decide for ourselves how we read them?

This is on MSN today, the Top 30 Cars Produced.
All 4 Golfs in there!

Mk 1 = 6,986,458

Mk 2 = 6,301,000

Mk 3 = 4,805,900

Mk 4 = 4,888,426

Wonder why the Mk 5 hasnt made it into the top 30?
Does this mean the mk3 is the rarest out of the 4?  :shocked:

Yet somehow it once managed to claim the title of European Car Of The Year!  must be due to some of those classic special editions they released.  Who can forget the rare versions like these:













Pure class... plenty more where these came from.. at least another 6 or 7!  :grin:

Do you not think it was worth the 'European Car Of The Award'? What do you think should have claimed that title back in 1992?
