We specialise in solving VW Golf soft top convertible problems

Volkswagen is one of the world’s most successful producers of cabriolets and this is largely down to the success of the VW Golf Cabriolet. From 1979 to 2002, VW sold 684,000 cabriolet models and after a 9 year gap relaunched the ever popular convertible returning in 2011.
The electrically operated soft-top roof is one of the most impressive aspects of the vehicle and can be lowered and raised in around 9.5 seconds, which is quick compared to some of its rivals.
The option to go for a soft-top convertible over a heavy hard-top means the car is lighter and despite the choice to go with the material roof, there is no compromise on refinement in the car whether the cabriolet roof is up or down.
