Ah, my first car was a 1987 VW GTI... only the 8v, so it wasn't *technically* cool.
And not having a fuel gauge made for some exciting times in high school.
If you didn't notice the little "oh shit" light that came on when you were about to run out... well, I ran out of gas a couple of times before I realized what that meant. 😅😩
‘87 Jetta GLI for me! Silver. 8V. Wolfsburg Edition with sweet Recaro cloth/pleather seats. Heater smelled like maple syrup. Always hungry for waffles on my way to school in the morning.
Underrated? The Golf was literally on every hatchback comparison in the 80s and won a significant number of them.
It is the hatchback car noobs think of when they think 80's hatchback. I'd say it's a lot closer to being over rated than under rated.
