OK, Here you are, I have an '85.

performance: a little underpowered, but all other performance aspects are
excellent!

Maintenance costs: Wasn't Consumer Reports talking about pre-85 Golf's and
GTI's? If so, ignore it, because '85 and '86 are almost completely different 
cars. I have 15,000 miles. The only problem I've had was a bad fuel gauge.
Otherwise, NO problems.

Price: The sticker on my car was $11,800. I paid $10,300. Be persistent.
Especially at this time of the year, you get the good deals, because
nobody sells a lot of cars in the winter.

You won't be sorry.
