Volkswagen Golf (Germany, 1985-1992)

The second generation of the Golf would be launched in August 1983, as a slightly bigger and somewhat rounded version. Both interior and exterior dimensions, as well as the weight and the wheelbase length, were a little bit higher.
With this generation’s launch, the North American “Rabbit” was standardized, changing its name to Golf, the way Volkswagen originally named it.
This was the first Golf to have four-wheel drive versions (the Syncro) and there were a lot more diverse engine options to choose. From 1986, it was started a 16-valve version, which provided a slightly lighter and more agile drive.
Nevertheless, no Cabriolet Mk2-version of the Golf was made, thus the Mk1 Cabriolet manufacture was continued.
In 1992 (February), the Mk2 Golf officially stopped being manufactured.
