Elegant, understated. Nice color.

Punchy, feul efficient 1.8 liter turbo. Had a 2010 Golf with inline five cylinder 2.5 liter engine, fine. This is better.

Have you had any reliability issues, specifically regarding the infotainment and electrical systems? Does diesel ever get on you and then the smell get stuck in the cabin? What about wind/road noise? I've read several reviews that state road noise is very pronounced.

No issues so far. Have had just over three weeks, just over 1,000 miles. Mine is gasoline, however my brother has a 2011 Golf deisel, and he comments on the smell, and messiness at the fuel pump. I haven't noticed any road noise. I drive primarily back roads to, and from work, 18 miles one way, five days per week. I have the Hanhook tires.
