Rummage around the average Canadian’s pantry and you’ll find plenty of things that look like this: We love No Frills grocery store and its disconcerting plain yellow packaging. While Americans buy Accords, we buy Civics. Don’t worry, I’m Canadian - I can say that. Traditionally, Canadians are quite cheap. Here’s how the iconic Mark IV Volkswagen Golf and Jetta lived way longer than you might’ve expected. Not in the U.S., mind you, but in places like Canada, Mexico, and Brazil. In fact, Jason Torchinsky called that generation of Jetta “ The Platonic Ideal of Small Car Design.” It and its Golf sibling were so good that they stuck around on the new car market forever. Combined with reasonable pricing and plenty of engine options, it’s no surprise that they sold by the truckload.
When they burst onto the scene around the turn of the millennium, they were markedly nicer than any other compacts around. The Mark IV Volkswagen Golf and Jetta are a pair of beloved automobiles.
