Tested
“Imagine driving a silver metallic Volkswagen Golf that combines agility with practical everyday comfort. Manual gearbox gives you full control on the road, while cruise control and air conditioning make longer trips comfortable. Equipped with engine heater and start/stop function for smarter driving.”
The Tested range is a wide selection of used cars which, depending on their age and mileage, may require some maintenance and servicing, as well as possible repairs. However, each vehicle is unique with its own history, so it is important to read the description and any comments in our test to understand its condition.
What do we notice in the Kvd test?
Our vehicle technicians have tested the car on more than 170 points and noted both approved points and eventual remarks. This gives you a good and fair picture of the car.
Since the the car has had a previous owner, some signs of use may be present, which we consider normal wear based on the car’s age and mileage. This is not indicated in the test results, but is a natural part of a used car.

Uneven idle. Insulation mat under hood damaged. Engine does not run on all cylinders. Leaking injectors
The drivetrain should work but requires ongoing maintenance and replacement of components. The drivetrain is noisier than on a car that has driven a shorter distance. Traces of oil in the engine compartment are very common and oil consumption is higher than when the car was new. The range on electricity is limited.
