COLOUR AND UPHOLSTERY
Volkswagen Citi Golf
Volkswagen’s Citi Golf is pure nostalgia in traffic, especially if you grew up in an era when the roads from Joburg to Durban were thick with them. Built in Uitenhage, this was the hatch for South Africans who wanted basic, honest motoring without the headaches of fragile electronics or expensive spares. Now, with only a single example on the market at R104,500, you’re not exactly spoiled for choice. That’s a 2009 1.4i petrol with a semi-auto box—an oddity even back then. The rivals have faded too: remember when a Corsa Lite or Yaris was a common sight in Bellville or Mamelodi? Those days are gone, and so is the segment. Entry-level now means something totally different, with airbags and touchscreen infotainment that would have seemed like sci-fi to early Citi buyers. This lone CITI Xcite 1.4i, clocking 112,000 km, tells its own story. Either someone babied it, or there’s a bit of creative odometer history—on paper at least, that’s low for a 2009. No hybrids, no lane assist, no app to precondition the cabin—just a 1.4-litre engine that any backyard mechanic can keep ticking over for another decade. If you live in rural KZN or the Northern Cape, that’s the point: you want something fixable, not finicky. Only finding one for sale nationwide says it all. Hunting down a decent Citi Golf is a waiting game now, but if you pack smart and have a bit of patience, you’ll get why it’s what the Citi should have been from the start.
