Built from 1998 to 2014 with a 115 hp 2.0L inline‑4, as a hatchback with a manual or automatic gearbox.
The Volkswagen Golf Mk4, sold from 1999 to 2006 in the US, represented a significant move upmarket for the nameplate. It introduced a level of interior quality previously unseen in its class, featuring soft-touch materials, precise panel gaps, and distinctive blue and red backlighting. A wide range of engines was available, from the base 2.0L 4-cylinder to the turbocharged 1.8T and the unique narrow-angle VR6.
Today, the Mk4 is a staple of the modern classics scene, largely thanks to its role in the tuner culture of the early 2000s. Collectors focus on performance trims, particularly the GTI with its tunable 1.8T engine and the later 24-valve VR6. The ultimate Mk4 is the R32, which combined a 3.2L VR6 with Haldex all-wheel drive and a muscular body kit, making it the most sought-after and valuable model by a wide margin.
