stand out is particularly important, then disregard doors to biggest economies, china and the us the vw golf one is the most successful cause in the world. extraordinary ordinary. but what's so special about it? nothing. there is nothing exceptional. everything fits the and i conic gym and call this remains to to itself to 50 is spectacularly spectacular. i'm going in

a golf and it's mary is generations was always recognizable as a golf. i came by. we knew what you had, the, the goals, the most successful german car, whole time appealed to young and older like it's time told, and 35000000 by as well as wide across the schools that she'll come. this is the senior dr. drew up to the clinic and a golf the letter carrier drove one to work in the morning and then deliberate is letters and another golf. no matter your social class or your job, it's just a normal car. mine is all to the gulf is come, cut the whole world from brazil to south africa in many places. it's become part of the national culture and survived political people during our but a baby doesn't accessible to a lot of the old products. but then after that then we got our free domain. it was

accessible to a new one. volkswagen means a lot to visit in culture and especially the goal ma, those that we have here and what's next to the gulf. that's heated divisive debates about that. on the sixty's, but that was because the challenge now is to continue the success story and also the you don't have to revolutionize everything if you think what's there isn't that bad the, the goal is in a way a symbol of the tragedy activity happening in the motive industry the people's beloved receiving the size of using them go yeah they, they, they did a good job. they those that are boost name kind of design. and this revolutionary style design that comes from the city with southern european flag to a jet to,

to jot or broke, or conventions in the early 19 seventy's to create a sensible come. com the to go there still it's form architecture and technical and functional framework are like the harmonies of a hit song called the counselor there. well matched notes that create a harmony when you put them together. you see a man, you're not moving on. to joe, who is vice a designer of the century for creating unique and legendary vehicles for a wide variety of comic has was commissioned by volkswagen to develop a success to to the b team made it radically different from the perennial best seller angular instead of round front instead of rear wheel drive was the cold instead of at the gulf was smaller than the beat me outside. much room

yet on the inside stood up the 2nd feature of the golf. i'll show you here an email. it's sloping a pillar and the slope in good shape. while the belt line is lower, delta you bozza, so they are the facets of these notices, like those used to compose music. most of the brand may surprise those who look at it with a harmony, as that's not perceived with the conscious mind. and so the people just feel that that's and and people immediately felt the benefits of the call. vw su, launched the gulf gti for drive, it seems like 246, then the gulf is consistently being the best selling caught in germany,

frequently in europe. and in some years, even worldwide takes over. that's a big well yes, i believe that the gulf actually managed to bend the site guide of the industry and to sheet metal nice to a proven technology that was very solve. i'd say that you could rely on you see a so lead the last few months, each for less than 20 the gulf is now and its 8th generation call that change the industry and even established a new vehicle category. the golf club. as it's called the gulf, it's not really changed in 60 is the, it's not someone's gonna have actually managed to change the golf very gradually, slowly and then evolution every way. so that's what a new generation is. very reminiscence of the old one. the noise do not see one. see i'm the customers have now been scared off by

a completely new design or the installation noise design. this meeting is that's why there is a very strong customer loyalty to this car because you knew what you had. most of us might have to the best of, as he lives accost development can be found in the world's largest private goals collection in the austrian town of chicago. use if use a has brought together a 114 gulf ranging from the most unusual with sliding doors to the fastest cubes. gti models, the, it's the go fans life slack. tech goes is a gulf because it was the 1st vehicle where everything really was just right. i used to drive all brands, almost all brands. when i was young, the 1st time the gulf really was the car you sat in and everything was just right. the perfect car as if it had been built for me. just bank of america baldwin,

the other many go fans, homes, clubs to cultivate the passion. i'm the own is if the 1st model series from the 1970s gather at the meetings of one such great cold, original goals one but people from all walks of life come together here the him on the senior doctor drove to the clinic in a gulf, the letter carrier drove one to work in the morning and delivered his letters and another girl now and the secretary and the factory drove a golf and the boss, his wife may have also had a golf. as a private car. it's a class this car under stated, reliable, practical, in a sense that offers everything you still need to get from a to be today to the one . i'm not, let's come there. even some gulf. one own is to vote that causing the former east germany. in 1978. volkswagen delivered 10000 goals that in exchange for seat metal teaching, oil and tires. it wasn't easy for people to to get the hands on the gulf sign hot.

martinez got lucky because he'd registered with the also rich. he's for an east german cars long before and so he was able to get to west gym and cox that he could work on. and he's got the most for the interview at the time. i worked for an intern for the i guess a test engineer readings, but it wasn't to conrad in, so i approached it up domestically. i know i just you have to get your hands on this car. so of course i gave up the lot. i had registered for 12 years earlier in order to get it a lot of goals. all the rage necessarily in east germany, but so incoming, if you could smell the foundations to the gulf. enthusiasm in the balkans were laid back in the 19 seventies and remain in place today. then volkswagen produced the 1st gulf models made in. sorry, eva today the buzz, me and capital has cost of a joint venture. is like a circle closer to the dream of every average yugoslavian was to own

a gulf. of course you had to wait for a golf if you had the money for it to him. oh no, that's not. i don't know. the weight was up to 6 months. i was able to save some money so that i could make my dream come true. it was a big deal for me as a young man on top of my generation, we'll get what i'm talking about is opposite to the seconds production facilities with knowledge he destroyed and the pulse me in full between 1992 and 95 gulf production was discontinued, but people's in use yes and for the german call has the volume. the same email address is i'm most most peaceful and i the whole this home it's emotions about that see years for this,

about survival. and often that was the tendency for the people to feel themselves. again, like to normal again, that some lights in south africa to the gulf has survived a change in political systems and is now part of the country's culture. like a witness to history. it joined the long journey of the black population from the oppression of a pol tied to the present day. the evening i bought the doors in accessible to a little bill price. maybe it was still expensive. those ones who is comprised, but then after then we got our freedom. i think i think it became accessible to yeah. to almost everyone. a very special golf model was even built in south africa because the gulf to which replace the one in 1994 was too complex and expensive for

south africa. the gulf one simply continued to be built that in a slightly modified form under the name city gulf is that my 2007 c to go feed was a base motors and that's how it looks from insight. i can go outside and show you the old site as well. from the m k. one too busy to go. this is how you differentiate them, just letting you. so the, that's how you differentiate those. c, a m k one doesn't have a deadline, but the c 2 gloves have been the wind production of the city gulf was finally discontinued in 2009. the whole country bid farewell to this favorite. com with emotional outgoing the i think you don't remember what day you saw the belfry paid will never die because there's people who look up the them, it will live for

a. i'm going to save one for my son. he's built 2 years old. yeah. so you'll find it maybe when he's 18 or cleaning london using testbed deals, whatever is owned by they use loading tests. they about tickets for myself, the, the brazilians got a specially built model. the vw go, one is the country's most popular calls between 19802022. although it had audi 80 and vw percent dna, it came with body styles reminiscent of the polo and gulf wagon means a lot to brazilian culture expression. we for like the goal models that we have here, the created goal to be a cheaper car for families from our simpler people, which is the base off of versus, you know, the admin york useful. yeah. whether

it's the small goal or the think a gulf sup resilience, volkswagens, and much more than just cause they created the then the timeless car issue. be a 1994. both. it's do a nice car to have the culture of this, the, the, the way they will, it's producing the lines that they use it the, the engineering, all, all of these created this timeless piece. you know, so both means more than just the car. it's like a culture and even in from people take the hats off to the goals, a special exhibition at the restroom. the bill classic co show in paris commemorates the gulf history. probably the only foreign call this is ever managed to seriously compete with the french, like whole favorites of what you

a car from abroad that left its mark on the french, you were suddenly driving a car that was incredibly young situ, onto a cd, for example. it was a comfortable french car this but none of our cars had that dynamism. wow. so i mean, if i do not need you to speaking of dynamism, the gulf gci which hits the market in 1976, the full version of the gulf with a 110 who the gti was soon in high demand, including on the race track. and that'd be $850.00 kilos. it made the tax to a 119 kilometers per hour in telling sign load of up to speed a g t i find from the very beginning and has remained loyal to the little speed stuff to this day. for me, the g t i is the common mans porsha because of course it was financially out of the question and i'm not going to stick to what you know and don't try to rise to heights, right? you have no business being the g

t i was affordable even in terms of whatever maintenance was needed to give up. it's all about all the signs of disposing goals get together at the annual g t, i mean find hold to provide just being a regulatory at one of the world's largest vw, me since 1993 as opposed to use it took place at the bus as the in austria, in 2024. it will be held for the 1st time in regards to a fans from the wells make the pilgrimage to showcase best favorite gulf enables. i've driven it down here over 20 times and i love it. it is the 1st of all in terms of performance, it has $136.00 plus horse power as a hot can on a hot meant exhausts himself. unfortunately, no longer exists is not possible. it hasn't been saying sound, but everything by the book that draws you in the smoking on the home and the phone with the spend, the time. the health family from some bug gemini, has

a special connection to the g t. i made selma and fred method, the gulf meat versus a and then regularly came back they were met the summer of 1987 especially fondly. how time needed the cause use such as a as a count woke. there was also a beauty contest for women, and that in my house was crowned miss g t. i the committee some of the goes, although that's a bit the guys has a good cause. that's how we complimented one another. it's the main found the is a screen to f in noise and it's a 1982. we have the brilliant idea to hold a spectrum counter event for d t i n c z s p. if you help the admin fee, we had a flying go from the loading job and stream is agreement going. okay, no,

it never actually flew the tape pulled one up with a parachute the good say it was an insulated go. dore, gold and silver. over the course we had all kinds of things. people when water skiing, there was a water ski valet discovered on the start button made in the weather and cars were last. not the tongue just, i don't know if it was a bishop, but there was something like that, spread his hands and said, i bless you or something like that. but i feel like c legal, the 0 to speak if i have a proper, as a bless, just the cars, the all those give it dozens of times. fred, how i drove his pirelli g, t i from from back to the to z. but now the over 40 year old car is starting to show its fest sites of age. the guy out of the site gets

them and started leaking oil yesterday and it comes good. i can't quite pinpoint where it's coming from. yeah, to the thoughts dry on top of it, it's leaking quite a bit of oil underneath it rolls the pep rally g t. i was a special edition with distinctive rims and was built only for 5 months and 1983. many of these cards no longer exists today the, the wasn't couple of the game show that yeah, you know, wrapped around trees by young guy and not any are left because it is usually the golf t, t a is also an object of desire in the tuning seen many people he wants to make that cause more powerful as inc modify that g t eyes. the small one go from 1979 has been radically changed from its origin. that parents,

the i, the original as the body, the rest is completely rebuilt so far was we've got it and retained to like the golf to g. 60 engine was installed, various modifications were now and about $225.00 horse power from 5th to anton mccully cough invested $8000.00 euros and a modification that announced his needs to be hydro unlikely, lowered down close to the pavement when even and when the road is on even you can raise it and 1st, you know, when it's not moving, you can completely lower emphasis on it does turn hands especially when you go shopping somewhere and then lower the car in the parking lot or less often partner . that's pretty cool. so, so one of the quote is of the gold d t i is a multifaceted teacher, a couple of gaps that is found in using f 6 follow as in a wide variety of things you'll get to do data to create to us the gulf has

a call and he's got rise among his fairies and maserati that he particularly enjoyed driving up black g t i media b by remember how much fun it was that my friends went crazy for a little bit, even though they were driving much more expensive and technically superior cars i'm in a gulf really is more than just account. go stands for a way of life, almost the profession of the live with an identified with them. so in a way, the expression generation golf makes sense. volkswagens marketing department,

also adult kids, that catch phrase which also floating on alias chose as a title for a novel published in 2000 that sold over 6000000 copays. and it's, he describes the people born in germany between 1970 and 85, most of whom drive goals. you cannot see what it is. it's interaction gulf is actually also the generate. shouldn't have an average citizen who is slow to change. so time who is not radical to new? yeah. who doesn't rock the boat? id call is to and to a certain extent, that's what the golf stands for. of your son interested by the close the golf stance in the middle. spencer, the middle in a very nice way with the emission to be the best of them is the human lead might have to pull the conversation between these, the cfo, shopping of a nice hive,

then not these from these a cause tilio and didn't, i was gonna come in, this was the vehicle couldn't seats before the public me and i took a coffee. i need, you know, i don't necessarily think it's a flaw that a generation isn't revolutionary. i probably also marks me as belonging to that generation because you don't always have to revolutionize everything. we do think what's there isn't that bad? tough to 50, low me in the days of the gulf looks like they would numbers as volkswagen proposed for new age of mobility. electro mobility with the development of the id model in series. but don't count the goal file just yet. i just wanted to see got that has now been a change in product strategy. a volkswagen, the id 3 which has positioned in the same vehicle classes the gulf was unable to build on the goals success because based on a now volkswagen, he's going the other way and taking these well known performance characteristics of

the gulf and transforming them into electric mobility home, yet the in india, electron mobility it once the i know is to build on it side conic history and continue the success story with an electric car on to that 1st cuz she's development, i'm electrical alta like at this time. and this is what it could look like. the goals, 9 was electric drive, which will be launched, the earliest in 2026. the gold pieces in a way. assume all of the tragedy actually happening in just the motive industry. we are changing over to new engines, namely the electric engines that completed different parameters and stay in the car, maintains exactly the same shape as before. so when veto became goals, changing the engine, the change also the shape. now 50 is often the 1st goal. i believe we have to understand that the way we use cause it's a scholarly change. and so it's quite

a tragedy that's read them just as we keep the goals forever. the we by the goes because of the meaning of it. and in a new words, which is the one we had approaching, this should be new meanings. could it be times that you'll get to java or to radically redesign v w 's best selling model? doesn't v w need a little revolution? every 50 is likely the italian now really works with chinese call make has ended his collaboration with volkswagen in 2015 in design. it's not democratic. you understand how people do you. i didn't have the freedom to propose the things i wanted to do when i agreed to join that large corporate group . recently i'm bigger but they don't have any courage because they're the men in charge and they don't want to put their positions of power at risk or thrown. they

don't take risks, they do things more or less the same as ever in order to avoid risks. because they don't have any vision up, but you stop either. their vision is what led georgette to job to, to create, to milestones. and oh, to my teeth design, the only so i have limited and bill the career out of my absolute freedom. because when i made my 1st cars, i had incredible freedom to do. the best time during the day dw, go a symbol of freedom and creative a team in college design. because everyone which people and young all over the world have embrace the com which has become the flagship of the gym and automotive industry. it's tough, it's low risk as opinions
