We've already brought you the story, but we just could't stay away from this video. After all, how often do you read about a car that's been produced in 30 million examples. But the popular VW Golf has managed to do just that after 40 years of loyal and uninterrupted service to the compact segment.
The landmark car is finally shown in the video, a olf TDI BlueMotion powered by a 1.6 TDI engine welcomed by VW employees and CEO Martin Winterkorn.

The story of the Golf and its seven generations is best seen, not explained, so we'll leave it to the Germans. But remember, our comprehensive database has everything you'll need to know about the old models and our test drive fills in the gaps with comprehensive information about the Golf 7.

Editor's note: Das Auto. Dat There Golf… it's good!

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
