  Air con bills rise as the weather warms up 20 Jul 2010 (News)
  Too many drivers leave the system dormant for long periods of time, particularly during the winter, so we highly recommend that it's used at least once a week to avoid causing expensive repairs." Volkswagen Golf owners could be hit with a bill of £713, and Ford Focus drivers might not get off lightly either, with the highest claim paid by Warranty Direct as high as £650. Repairing the air con is a labour-intensive job, requiring on average 2h37m of a mechanic's time to put right.

  Fiat Panda 2022: New Panda to stick with petrol engines 22 Dec 2021 (News)
  While it would be wrong to say the current Fiat Panda (on sale since 2011) in unsafe, a zero star NCAP safety rating means it's not as safe as rivals such as the three-star Volkswagen Up. You can expect the Fiat Panda to get around 40 miles per gallon.  More On New Cars See All Cars Coming In 2022

  E-types are top sellers at British Heritage auction 19 Jun 2018 (News)
  A 1997 BMW Z3 1.9-litre made £1100 – although it was a four-pot with eight owners and limited service history. And tidy but useable Mk3 Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet made £350 – a perfect summer bargain. As was the 1998 Ford Scorpio 24v Cosworth – fully loaded but with tired paint, it will make someone an excellent everyday hack, if they can afford the fuel.

  Second Preview Brightwells Classic Car Auction, Leominster, Wednesday 26th November 18 Nov 2014 (News)
  1973 Volkswagen 412LE, no reserve.  A mate of mine had one of these in London in 1973, but nowadays you won’t find a rarer mainstream VW. This one has the 80PS 1,679cc Bosch D-Jetronic fuel injection (like my mate’s car), but the model was the last new air cooled rear engined VW before the K70 and the Mk 1 Golf took Volkswagen into front wheel drive.

  Used 3-drs Worth More Than Used 5-drs 3 Apr 2007 (News)
  ” Paterson continues, “With other cars in the C-segment, such as the Peugeot 307 and Volkswagen Golf, the visual differences between the three- and five-door models are more subtle and consequently the differential in residual values is less marked.” Another factor influencing price differences between some three- and five- door models is supply.
