Hi

A friend of mine who is a senior citizen and want to buy a new car to
replace her standard old car. She is very good driver with very clean
driving history. Her current car is Volkswagen golf. She is thinking
of buying a new Volkswagen golf but automatic of course (easier to
drive). Do you have any other recommendation on which car (brand
name) she should consider. Too many options and technologies are not
really required, just basic stuff but most be automatic.

Thank you in advance.


avoid any VW vehicle their resale value will probably take a big hit
for a generation.

besides all auto makers need to watch vw go nearly out of business so
they dont try to pull stuff like cheating on air pollution


VW may be the best buy at the right price. Depending on the buyers age,
resale may be meaningless. If the car is never sold, who cares?

Good chance it can be had a a large discount just to move it.


If she were my mother I'd buy a Subaru Impreza for her.
