The VW Golf mk1 was the replacement for the VW Beetle. It was announced in 1974, and featured front wheel drive and liquid cooling, making it very different than the Bug it replaced. The Jetta, introduced in 1979, became the best-selling European car in the United States, Canada, and México.
Good luck Matthew with your new site. I loved my old VW, Leroy was his name. He was named that by his previous owners and I just couldn't change it. lol Cheers mate!
