  • @Annihilator1111 why do you think everyone wants to know the engine line up for all of the cars ncap has tested

  • @renmeg3 well i only saying what engines does the cars have

  • golf suck and shit car

  • @MrFerraristadoc you know nothing about cars

  • the dislikers is now 21......... what the f@ck is wrong with you?

  • giulietta suck

  • @Golf5F i agree with you. i was between giulietta and golf mark 6,first i saw the giulietta but not only the funky looks but also the interior was unpractical and very cheap feeling,when i got to vw dealer and sit on driver seat of mark 6 i said to myself that is the car you will buy!

  • This should be a main-stream TV-show!

  • yes only two words: german quality.... there is nothing anything to say..

    

  • uuu babyy :D

  • Giulietta did better results

  • @Lanciarules

    Leopard 2 did better results....

  • are these tests executed with the engine running and the fuel system under pressure?

  • vw de los mas seguros!

  • Good stuff, I anticipate to see even more.

  • i hate that it had to be crashed for the test ,, poor baby car :(((

  • vw golf = chuck norris

    vw golf is beeing used to test crash test walls

  • Try an American automobile made past 2005 thier pretty good. If only people would give them a chance...

  • Astra is better .

  • @djufanfu fuck opel

  • @Turkish42 Shut up fucking Turkye

    Opel is the same good then VW. Assol No fuck Opel

  • @bennicool888 ok fuck you then dickhead. go fuck yourself

  • @Turkish42 THAN FUCK YOU WITH "FUCK OPEL"... PUCKEYE

  • @bennicool888 hahahah you mad you maaaaaaaaad

  • @Turkish42 Then say not "Fuck Opel"

    When the Man say Astra is better, is djufanfu SHIT, but not OPEL, OPEL HAS NOT SAY "ASTRA IS BETTER"

    Shut up

  • @bennicool888 you mad bro?

    AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAH

  • @Turkish42 Opel is no fuck !!

    Im not mad, but you bro ?

  • @bennicool888

    HAAHAHAHHAHAH

  • @Turkish42 Opel is GOOOOOOOOOOODD VERYYY GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOODDDDDDD!!!­!!!!

  • i wonder, what do they do with the cars after crash-testing it?

  • @Watcher1821 They send them to the Polish

  • @Watcher1821 In my country are repaired and sold at lower cost

  • @Neodymio that isnt a good idea actually couse the car has been crashed in the front so the whole engine is damaged , even though if they repair it, someone who would buy it would have many problems with the engine...

  • @Watcher1821 repairers ensure that everything is in order because are official repairers

  • @Watcher1821 what if they replaced it with a new engine instead of repairing it assuming if it was repairable

  • i had a carcrash last year with a golf VI. The other guy was unconscious and drove on my side of the road - i wasnt able to avoid a crash. Besides some bruises nothing happend to me! Thanks to these crash tests the cars are relatively safe!

  • Points off for the hubcap coming off. LOL

  • japanese and europeans cars are THE BEST....!!!! I like VW,audi,bmw, mercedes,toyota,honda and mitsubishi....!!!! BUT MY FAVORITE IS LEXUS

  • Funny: At 0:57min it looks like the dummy shows his teeth after the hit... :-D

  • @TriesPizza -_-" very funny

  • Hm, safest car for 2009! it is really safe inside this!

  • I don't understand the pole test.... Where in real life are you going to hit a pole sideways at 30km? :\

  • @ChadRobertHill One of my friends actually slid out going about 60mph after swooping to fast into the over lane, and he managed to take out 2 sets of traffic lights while going sideways, so yes it does happen

  • So that makes the car in Europe !! not in the U.S.A ;-)

  • I have this car

  • so is my car safe :P ?

  • Look cut the shit Euro cars number one. Buy yaself a jap car and get a free fucken Ipod then when ya dead she uses it and fucks the other guy. VW Das is Auto!

  • now that's what i call german quality

    VW-Das Auto

  • 14person who dislike this.

    Do you want to have not a safety at your car?

  • @chompon232 The problem is that many people hate VW & Audi. So do I. =P

  • @GamerAndReviewer Why they are hate it? it isn't worth to use?

  • @chompon232 If every VW breaks down 10 times a year, does it worth?

  • @GamerAndReviewer Really! I just know about that. I never owned a european car In my country A japanese car isn't easy to breaks down like that.

  • @chompon232  I never had a VW, but I 've seen many that were broken down...

  • @GamerAndReviewer all cars break down no matter what. european, american, domestic, japanese .. all cars are good, its just depends on the owner of the car

  • @chompon232

    No, they drive Opel!

  • Dont know if I should get a jetta or a golf, lol

  • Two words: German quality 

  • @JENSDONT german Volkswagen quality is the best but also german in general. greetings from italy

  • @croterius That's correct! Greetings from Belgium :)

  • @JENSDONT le pays avec la bonne bière :)

  • @croterius Bien sûr :P. Your country has the best pizza and spaghetti! I can't speak italian, i'm sorry :(

  • @JENSDONT don't worry.. italian is a useless language:) speak french or english. I can understand you.. yes my friend, in italy we all love pizza and pasta.. especially pasta:) italians eat pasta at least once a day.

  • @croterius I do speak german too, which also a very important language. A lot of european countries speak german, it's a very 'economical' language, if you know what I mean. But what does this conversation has to do with a crashtest... :P

  • @JENSDONT LoL.. nothing to do..:):) anyway golf is the best car in the world :)

  • @croterius I is probably the most reliable car in the world. I think the really best car is the Golf GTI... :P

  • @JENSDONT hell yeah.. have you got a golf??

  • @croterius No. My brother has a golf 4

  • Comment removed

  • @JENSDONT I've got it too.. I don't like golf 5 but golf 6 is awesome. 4 and 6 my favourites

  • @croterius Yeah, I also like the Golf 3, but it doesn't look modern enough for these days. Golf 4 looks still modern, even after 13 years... :)

  • Comment removed

  • Comment removed

  • @JENSDONT I fell this as you:) I like golf 3 as well but it's too hold nowadays but 1.9 GTI model is still a great car. I have golf 4 TDI 130HP 6 gears but it's better than shit alfa romeo 147 JTDM or more recent 130HP models.italian cars suck except Maserati, Lamborghini and Ferrari but I don't like even these. for me car=Volkswagen

  • @croterius Yes, Alfa Romeo (or Italian cars in general) aren't reliable and the quality isn't 'german' enough. But still, they look very nice, and because of the looks they are popular on our roads. And off course Lambo, Ferrari, etc. these are great sportscars. But please don't forget the Audi R8: great german supercar!!

  • @JENSDONT Yes Audi is my favourite after VW. the interior are fantastic and they are strongly reliable. fiat and alfa romeo are unreliable, in italy there is plenty of there but luckily there are a lot of Audi, BMW, mercedes and VW. golf 4 and audi A3 particularly

  • @croterius Yeah, VW and Audi is also very popular in the USA these days. Especially the VW Jetta and the Audi A5. Not everything in America is GM-shit... :P ("plenty of there": LOL) plenty of THEM is correct, I guess :)

  • @JENSDONT Yes my friend, it was a distraction mistake:) thanks for correcting me!!!! in U.S.A. if you have an European Car (especially Ferrari, Audi, Mercedes, VW) you are rich and powerful:)

  • @croterius Yes, because they are also more expensive than the korean and japanese models. European cars are becoming very popular in the USA. Because of the crisis americans now buy reliable and strong cars. European cars have a 'longer life' than the American shit cars.

  • @JENSDONT american cars suck.. luckily I'm european so I can easily buy european cars, oh sorry, GERMAN cars:)

  • @croterius Haha, yeah. German cars are the best. I really like Audi's. My favourite cars!! We can easily buy european cars because they are made in here :P it's very normal in europe to have a quality car. But also japanese cars are good quality... but i wouldn't buy one that fast :)

  • @JENSDONT German quality, but not for VW...

  • @GamerAndReviewer Why not? I think VW has better quality than Opel (GM-product).

    But Opel has actually also a rather good quality... a lot better than 10 years ago.

  • Am I seeing this right? On 24th Nov 2008, the new Golf MK6 was shown in this video?

  • Very impressive, makes you question why you'd buy anything else.

  • @KoopaKabana

    Because...what you're seeing is budget-level protection and there are plenty of safer alternatives, including other VAG cars.

  • @kirkey99 The Q7 would not be one of those. That vehicle has serious structural issues.I suppose the Phaeton would cause damage to the wall and rolling vehicle not vice verse.

  • german reliability is no longer..too many breackdowns for the new german WV ..they r interestless now

  • @remp...

    I can live with breakdowns, it's the ridiculous pricing of the spare parts and forcing you to use vw repairers that pisses me off the most! They use freaky ass bolt and nut patterns, for which only vag makes tools that they don't sell to the public. VAG also quickly raise the prices for the parts that break down the most, including those with inherently shitty designs from the factory.

    I wish I didn't own a golf, but the cost of fixing it up properly for sale would be more than the car

  • Scirocco has a stiffer chassis

  • OMG!!!  even windshield not broken!!!

  • Good car reason though i would never let my family buy one is because they keep the same design for like 5 years. Well in the uk they do.

  • That's great!

    but I think it's just like the golf V

  • Comment removed

  • in 64 Km/h

    good,but Renault is way better

  • the japanese and germans make the best and most reliable cars

  • Excellent result. But in real life, any number of things can happen, as we know. These dummies won't necessarily have survived any of these crashes. Scary stuff.

  • @dialyt55 there would have been definite survival unless a safety feature failed to work properly though.

  • @whattheheck1000 I don't think anyone can say there would ever be definite survival. All sorts of things can happen in an accident, there are so many variables, and human life so fragile, that even in the best of cars, people can die. Princess Diana was in an S-Class Mercedes Benz, one of the safest cars at that time, and she died. Drive safely my friend!

  • @dialyt55 The S-Class of Princess Diana had an offset impact into a concrete pillar at 105 km/h (65 mph). Thats much faster than the NCAP standard (remember: twice the speed = four times the energy). And no one in the car was wearing seat belts (!). Trevor Rees-Jones, her bodyguard, even survived this massive impact. And this was in 1997 - when the most cars achieved 2 - 3 stars. Considering this facts, the S-Class W140 is one of the safest cars ever built...

  • @whattheheck1000 Disagree to that, when a 12 wheeler hit u on the speedway no matter what u drive will just be crushed to nothingness...unless u're driving an Oshkosh MRAP armoured ATV, that's another story.

  • @kopial I was speaking of definite survival in a crash just like the one shown in the video, but if a 12 wheeler hits you on a speedway... even in a 5 star... you're a goner.

  • @whattheheck1000 Ooh...sorry, my bad. Cheers! :-)

  • Maybe u will buy a Japanese car because you will think its reliable

    Maybe u will buy a Koran car because you will think its more value for money

    Maybe u will buy an American car because you will think its fast and comfy

    BUT BELIEVE ME ,,, NO ONE CAN BUILT CARS LIKE THE EUROPEAN CARS!

  • jrd476: I am from Slovakia and GOLF/ Toareg/ porsche Cayenne are made in BRatislava Slovakia.... not in Germany

  • I'm a student, and my car is a Volkswagen sirocco R :)

  • @100hcap I HATE U... im stuck with a GTI... still... i love it.... the states could use more hot hatches like these.

  • @100hcap

    yabnel lazina!

  • I love the VM Golf, but I am student and I haven't the money to buy this is, so i think my first car will be an other one,.. I am sad, but that's life

  • @MusikLehrling lol same here

  • @MusikLehrling My driving instructer has one of these. I loved it and it had the nice TDI engine, but of course I can't afford one and the insurance would be crazy for a 2 litre diesel. It is the safest car rated by NCAP in 2009 though.

  • I love how you can see at 0:58 where the seat belt tightens up automatically when the Golf is about to hit the pole .. Volkswagens are very safe !

    Volkswagen for life =) !

  • What a waste of a car!!! Haha!

  • FANTASTIC!

  • Golf Adolf :=

  • Glad I'm getting the two door GTI now :-) Sort of expected it though from Volkswagen

  • I buy this car

  • i was always wondering about that what r gunna do with cars after crashed. i dont think all cars r fixed and sold. am i using one of them?????? scary hey :))))

  • one more example of the german safety! great!

  • this is pretty impressive..i was watching the kia soul crash test and i saw someone deemed THAT safe..ha!

  • Europe's safest car!

  • @pumpplow2 world's now ;)

  • a pretty safe car i have to say im quite surprised good job vw

  • That looked pretty impressive!

  • That's quality :D

  • Very interesting, but why don't let the sounds ?

    Think would be more interesting...

  • The difference is Quality!

    Somthing that VW has recentlly been lacking.

    Now I know for a fact European cars can be very reliable. I have a 1987 Volvo with 689K. you cant tell me thats not a good car.

  • too bad German cars are not as reliable.

  • its okay to cheat on your car.... LOL

    PLEASE SUBSCRIBE

  • Volkswagen are awesome!!!

  • FACT: No one can build cars like the Germans, so any debate is pointless.

  • Even Ford's Focus is not as well-made. I worked for Uni-com & was trapped it. Don't believe all this Ford have same qualitymore reliable then VW bullshit. A Focus TDCi might look very solid to look at on the outside but inside it falls apart & everything cracks/snaps/splits down below if you are not careful. Diesel engines are made of chocolate & during rain-fall you often find water droplets running over the inside rubber-seals. Something you don't get in a Golf

  • @1ns4ne1d10t I agree with you here, a TCDi engine is a PSA Peugeot Citroen engine that has been 'suposidly fettled' by BMW engineers, but its still a PSA engine and would never beat BMW or VW for supreme quality. Fords have the MORAL value as it is seemingly cheaper.

  • TDCi (excluding 1.8 ED) - Is a PSA engine that is developed far worse in terms of reliability than a normal PSA thanks to Ford's own venture using rubbish companies like Delphi. I can believe that some of the PSA engines are fettled by BMW but that is probably only for the units that are going in the 1.6D Mini Cooper. Basically the bottom line is... You pay for what you get. Ford Focus is cheaper more equipped than a Golf but be prepared for the bad Cust/Serv & DMF/Injector/PCM/Clutch Bills.

  • I know, my girlfriend has complained about a dealer ''sales executive'' who was magnetising his eyes on her very nice body when she took her RS for its first service, a pervert working for a car dealer!!! There was also a fault with the air con, it was spraying gasses into the car; the dealer said ''a seal has probably sprung a leak''. Tell that he was lying about it.

  • Ford will employ any idiot as a sales executive, as long as they are a good liar. My cousin Dan worked there as an agency valet for the Shirley branch. I was picking him up one evening from there after his shift. I was parked with 2-wheels on the kerb & one of the staff walked upto my car & said to me "get your shit off the entrance now" I jumped out of my car & squared up to him, we were both right up in eachothers faces nose-to-nose. If it wasn't for the PCSO I would have torn out his lungs.

  • It just goes to show you who's wages & bonuses you are paying whenever you buy a Ford. For a well-dressed sales-man to come marching up to a shaven-headed guy in tracksuit bottoms sat in a Seat Leon to start swearing at him & speaking to him in a bullying manner instead of asking him to politely move because he may not have realised he was causing an obstruction, makes you wonder. Thing is... He didn't care that anyone was around watching. What a professional attitude to have.

  • @jrd476 damn right the best car i ever rode in was an audi a8 and that thing ROCKED ON ALL LEVELS!!!

  • @whattheheck1000 i own one xD

  • @songer885 that kicks it :) i only got to ride in one once... you lucky lol

  • @whattheheck1000 unlucky mate. i know how you feel. once you get in one you can't get out. i once slept in it overnight lol.

  • @songer885 i feel decently lucky i got to ride in one at all. it was just recently, in march. and i did not want to get out of the thing. it was the best car ever.

  • @whattheheck1000 you can still get a second hand a8, doesn't cost too much.

  • @songer885 i am 17, sorry :( maybe when im 25. i dont drive yet.

  • @whattheheck1000 kk lol

  • @jrd476 if only their reliability could just be that tiny step further onto the plane with the bland but indistructable japanese cars, then they woulod be perfect

  • @jrd476 I think that germans and the swedes make the best cars, Mercedes BMW Saab and Volvo

  • @Carfreak1177 Saab? Saab is one of the shittiest cars around today. Its got nothing to do with Saabs of the old days. Since it was taken by GM, they've started making crap cars that seem like american cars. Its a shame to ruin such a badge.

  • @jrd476

    Built By Germans WITH "Cuore Italiano (Walter De Silva)"

  • @jrd476 I think the same, but have you thought about swedish cars? Volvo or SAAB

  • @jrd476 Germans are IMMENSELY able to do incredibly high-quality cars. This is 100% correct.

    That -no one- can build cars like them is 99.999% WRONG.

  • @Shacklebound OK then name a non-German manufacturer who can make something similar to a BMW or Merc and who has taken a significant share of the market?

  • @jrd476 I'm Italian and I HATE italian cars, fiat and Marchionne, it's breaking down italian economy and employment subsystem. But look at the Alfa Romeo MiTo crash test, if you will. It's SAFER than this golf and it's B-segment, not C as golf. Then, let's see: PEUGEOT. Or Renault, which has made of quality standards in safety its identity. HONDA and TOYOTA have the highest manufacturing quality ever, in facts their engine are the least exposed to failures and wear.

  • @Shacklebound It's not safer than a golf. Get your shit right. Golf is much safer. Go check euroNCAP's site before posting shit like this. Also the golf got the "safest car of 2009" award beating volvo xc60. I am not a fanboy and I don't suck any manufacturer's balls, I choose which is best for me. Toyotas hondas and ALL french cars are crap IMO. As for Alfa romeo's they produce very few models so they had to be the best, they stuggle to beat VW when VAG provides 20 times more models than alfa.

  • @neofyt05 WV Golf 6: Adult: 97% Child: 61% Pedestrian: 61% Safety Assist: 71%

    Alfa Romeo Giulietta : Adult: 97% Child: 85% Pedestrian: 63% Safety Assist: 86%

    I took the Giulietta result instead of MiTo beacuse they are same segment (C) and they both have the new EURONCAP test scheme.

    You Idiot.

  • @Shacklebound For once again get your shit right. It's

    WV Golf 6: Adult: 97% Child: 84% (not 61) Pedestrian: 61% Safety Assist: 71%

    Alfa Romeo Giulietta : Adult: 97% Child: 85% Pedestrian: 63% Safety Assist: 86%

    And we were talking about the MiTo not the giulietta. I just corrected you because your comment was wrong and misleading. So golf IS safer than MiTo.

  • @neofyt05 Mito is a smaller car (microcar class), the good design deceives it ofcourse and let it look like a sportster.

    The reality: it is much smaller as a golf and even smaller as a Polo, the safety standards of the Mito however are best in its own class

  • @neofyt05 ...Ok... There must be something wrong with you. 1-The %'s you repeated are the same as mine. What is the meaning of 'get your shit right'? is it your way to say "ok, you are right?".

    Unfortunately youtube disabled writing links in comments, otherwise I would link you that EuroNCAP made TWO (2, can you read?) tests of Golf6, one before the new testing scheme, and another after the new scheme. in the OLDER scheme, MiTo and Golf were comparable and MITO was safer.

  • @Shacklebound Dude are you high? You said Child: 61% and i said child: 84%. And no the MiTo is not safer, the Giulietta yes, the MiTo no.This is the last response to you.

  • @neofyt05 at least you didn't use the word 'shit' for once :) this is so good.

    Anyway, check the euroncap website, I swear, Golf VI made 2 tests, one in 2008 and one in 2010.

    No response needed. Bye!

  • @neofyt05 you Forget that fiat group provides the bodyworks/shells or monoqoques what ever you call them for: Fiat Bravo; Alfa giulietta, and also Opel Astra and in 2012 also for Chrysler so they had to be the safest because they are used for more than 1 brand

    I really think they are slightly safer than golf mark 5 or 6 but that is discutable; anyway Italy makes at least same safe cars as german ones and if not safer too and if you know the first Golf was designed by an italian

  • @215alessio i didn't say anything about italy and italians. They have my respect, really. Check euroNCAP for ratings. Btw the new golf is designed by an italian too. Just FYI the golf mkiv (1998) has a rating of 4/5.

    Find me a safer car cheaper than golf.

  • @neofyt05 okey, but to find a cheap car with same safety standards, New opel astra Fiat Bravo Renault Megane, 

    Safer I dunno it is all discutable the differences are minimal

  • @jrd476 And I forgot: type on google 'Reliability chart for automotive industry' or something like this. Scion, Honda and Toyota are the first ones. VW is number 21st and BMW is 26th. Even Ford, Suzuki, KIA and Mazda are more reliable than VW. But LISTEN, I like German cars very much, I'm serious. But it's no sense to idolize them as the best in the world. I don't really care if they are gonna become the first global car manufacturing country. Quality is one thing, market share is another.

  • @Shacklebound

    It's almost ridiculous how right you are!

  • @Shacklebound Reliability is boring. Buy a French car.

  • @KoopaKabana Ahahahahaaha actually I got a Peugeot! 206. The best car for me. And I must confess: also reliable. I'm at 215.000 km!

  • @jrd476 Tha Japanese ain't that bad at making cars!

  • id rather crash in a 2009 but still prety decent protection

  • There the same thing. If I had to be in a EuroNCAP crash, this would be one of my top choices.

  • CBS stats that Ford surpassed Toyota and Honda in reliability and quality.

    Please look it up!!!

  • Taking car advice from CBS? Theres a reason more then 50% of cars are imports. In rural areas where I live there was nothing but American cars, now their imports, even the old people have switched, they all drive accords and old people are always less likely to change.

    Attention to detail is terrible on Fords, they are a nightmare to work on, going under the hood is like walking through a mine field. And now with eco boost thats so annoying, its called turbo charging and its OLD news.

  • OK then why did consumer reports say the same thing?

    Ford's 90% reliability to Toyota's 86%.

    Not much but still it's more.
