In a daring quest to uncover the true waterproofing capabilities of a £950 Golf Cabriolet, the intrepid team at Car Throttle embarked on a wet and wild adventure. What they discovered was nothing short of a deluge of disappointment. Despite the British summertime living up to its soggy reputation, the convertible proved to be about as waterproof as a paper bag in a monsoon. The team's suspicions were confirmed as they found moisture and dirt inside the car, hinting at troublesome leaks.
To put the Golf Cabriolet's waterproofing to the ultimate test, the team bravely drove it through a car wash. What ensued was a watery catastrophe of epic proportions. The roof seals proved to be as effective as a sieve in a rainstorm, allowing water to gush in unabated. The car wash turned into a water park adventure, with the team getting drenched as if they were caught in a torrential downpour.
Despite their valiant efforts to clean the car, the water intrusion persisted, revealing the convertible's woeful lack of waterproofing. The roof leaks were so severe that it seemed as though the car was actively inviting the water inside. As the team tried to dry off and make sense of the aquatic ordeal, they humorously noted that while the Golf Cabriolet may not keep you dry, it does offer a unique two-in-one cleaning experience for both the interior and exterior. In the end, the test left no doubt that this convertible was more suited for a car wash than a rainy day drive.
