  This is a Harlequin Golf. A limited number of these were produced, but they actually did come this way from the factory with the different multicolored body panels.

  There used to be one running around a few towns over from me a couple of years ago, but I haven’t seen it for a while.

    last time i’ve seen one was 8 or so years ago, one of the guys in our neighborhood drove it. but i haven’t seen it since then. must have broken down like most german cars nowadays.

    There’s one in my neighborhood in West Philly. It’s a wagon version which is pretty sick in person

    In the motherland, they only sold the Harlekin Polo. I always liked the silly idea and am glad that after 20 years of white, silver and black cars on the streets, some colours have finally returned.

    Some backstory: there were display cars like this to show all the possible colours on the golf (or polo?) at the time. People liked it so much they wanted to buy it and VW decided to sell them.

  More car dealers should do that. Then I might actually find a car I can afford.

    Sorry, best I can do is 8% apr for 96 months with a fee for paying it off early. And I’ll throw in a free car wash with each service visit. And even if it’s electric, the service guys will still advertise our $49.99 oil change to you, by mail, 4 times a year for the rest of your life. You know you want one.

    Best deal in the industry, take it or leave it.

  I was about to comment saying how I saw this exact car in Hannover Germany a month ago but now I see it’s actually built that way. Dang.

  I’m one of the seven people on Lemmy old enough to understand a Partridge Family reference!

  Looks like a scrapped idea for a car The Wiggles would drive.
