Discover The Top Used Volkswagens

Since arriving in the UK in 1953, Volkswagen has been a big presence on UK roads, and it’s thanks to its consistent production of quality, stylish cars that their popularity has endured. It's a brand that keeps its finger on the pulse of modern motoring, and the models that you can find on the used car market offer that new car feeling at a more affordable price.  

Why buy a Volkswagen? 

Solid build quality 

As a German manufacturer, Volkswagen is a brand renowned for making cars that you feel safe and secure in, making for a much more enjoyable drive. This tends to come hand in hand with reliability, making a Volkswagen a car that you can trust on long journeys.  

Versatility  

Even if you go for one of the smaller Volkswagens available, you’ll still feel like you have a lot of space inside to play with. Your solo commuter car can transform into a small family vehicle if necessary  - and if you love Volkswagens as much as we do, we wouldn’t blame you for not wanting to part with it, even as life changes. 

Safety 

Volkswagen has invested a lot in making its models as safe as possible, so you’ll find plenty of safety tech onboard, backed up with 5-star Euro NCAP ratings for extra peace of mind. 

What are the top used Volkswagens? 

Now you’re sold on the idea of a Volkswagen, it’s time to find out what used models are available. Here are the top used Volkswagens that you’re likely to find on the market… 

Volkswagen Up 

Marketed as Volkswagen’s answer to the city car, the four-seater Up has proved itself to have a lot of that versatility we talked about earlier. It may be small in stature but it’s attractively boxy in style and feels rather spacious inside. The cabin feels sturdy and well-made, and it can easily turn its wheels to longer drives when necessary. 

Volkswagen Polo 

Moving up to the first of Volkswagen's five-seaters, the Polo is a hatchback that has stood the test of time - it was first launched in 1975! Now, it’s still a firm modern favourite, offering those that travel in it a smooth and comfortable ride. You’ll find a variety of trims on the used market, which means it appeals to a range of budgets. 

Volkswagen Golf 

The Golf is another VW classic - both in the traditional sense, and the modern sense. Since 1974 it’s been serving families as a reliable hatchback, but some models, like the GTI, appeal to those that like a sportier runaround; that’s the beauty of Volkswagen. Newer models come with the driver convenience and safety tech that we’ve come to expect, such as Apple CarPlay and Autonomous Emergency Braking. 

Volkswagen Tiguan 

As a compact family SUV, the Tiguan makes drivers feel like they’re in safe hands without the bulkiness that some larger cars are prone to. Volkswagen has combined practicality and style to produce a car that’s been going strong now for 15 years, with larger engines onboard that make long commutes and family trips a breeze. 

Volkswagen Touareg

The Touareg has long been a favoured SUV from Volkswagen, and its popularity shows no signs of slowing. It's spacious, well-equipped and luxuriously comfortable, making it the perfect larger family car - or one that you can easily fit golf clubs or mountain bikes in!
