Buying Guide for Used Volkswagens

Founded in Germany in 1937, Volkswagen, which literally means ‘people’s car’ in German, has gone from strength to strength.  As a result, the range of used Volkswagens for sale on the second hand car market is extensive and their popularity and reputation for quality continues to grow with each new generation, making them ever more desirable.

The iconic Volkswagen Beetle and the Camper Vans that were built before the 1980s are now so popular that to purchase a very good one second-hand would set you back considerably more than if you were to buy another make of car of the same age.  However, if you are looking to buy a VW, but your budget won’t stretch far enough to get you a classic model, there are plenty of other used Volkswagen models on the market for you to choose from.

Two perfect examples are the Polo and the Golf.  Both are fairly small cars, with varying engine sizes and specs.  There are literally thousands of used models around so the available choice is huge.

In 1994 the venerable Volkswagen Beetle was completely redesigned and introduced back onto the market.  Although it has never gained the iconic status of the original car it has remained a popular model and has now been in production long enough to be gaining a foothold in the used Volkswagen market.  The Beetle has come full circle and is once again popular, but a good used example is not cheap to buy.
