Which model year of Volkswagen Golf is the most reliable?

I've been thinking about buying a Volkswagen Golf, but I've heard mixed opinions about their reliability. Can anyone share their personal experience with a specific model year? I don't want to end up with constant maintenance and repair costs.

In my experience, the 2016 Volkswagen Golf has been the most reliable. I purchased mine brand new and have had minimal issues over the past four years.

I've had good luck with my 2018 Volkswagen Golf. It's been a solid car with no major problems so far.

I've owned a 2015 Volkswagen Golf for six years now and it's been very reliable. Regular maintenance is key!
