Built in which country?

[Flipper Dog]

Can some one confirm where the Australian delivered Golf VI is built? Is it now in Wolfsburg, Germany or still comming out of Sth Afrika?

Thanks

Thanks,
now with also checking the VIN coding i'll go back to that "salesman" and see if he might rethink what he knows.

One think that really P's me off is salesmen who don't know the product they are selling.

Hi Guys,

I am just wondering where are the Golf's actually built? I have read some are built in South Africa and some in Germany? Or is it all in Germany now?

Thanks

The GTI MK6 is built at Worsburg plant in Germany so is the rest of the other Golf variant.

the 11th character of your VIN number tells you where the car was Built. W for Wolfsburg is the one to look for.

There is a VIN decoder here if you wanna see other options

How accurate is that decoder?

It says my Mk6 09 is a Mk5 built in 1980

The Jettas we get are now built in South Africa, as opposed to Mexico, and the new Golf 6 wagons are built in Mexico.

VW have probably changed the model year designations because they got to 10. previously it was the 10th character. Maybe they have started from the start again? The rest of it should be accurate.
