Is the Volkswagen Golf a reliable and durable car?

I've been looking to buy a new car and I'm considering the Volkswagen Golf. I've heard mixed reviews about its reliability and durability. Can anyone share their personal experience with this car?

In my experience, the Volkswagen Golf has been a very reliable and durable car. I've had mine for 5 years now and haven't had any major issues.

I had a lot of issues with my Volkswagen Golf. It constantly needed repairs and it was quite expensive to maintain. I wouldn't recommend it.
