Thing I hate about the Golf is if you have your window down and there is any water on the roof you get soaked the first time you hit the brakes.
Yeah, put some wind deflectors on and the problem goes away.
Look naff IMO, plus shouldn't have to. Many things were thought out pretty well, but this is reasonably fundamental & not great, again IMO.
Apart from that, seats are a bit could have been, media unit Vs a phone that costs at most same or 50% (but that's not just VW), missing heated windscreen just now & gearbox/clutch that's a long way from the best.
