1987-1993 VW Fox Wagon (US/Canada)
Ik ben fan. 
Fox and Fox Wagon was also the name of a subcompact sedan and station wagon built by Volkswagen do Brazil and sold by Volkswagen in North America as an entry level model. It was a North American version of the Gol range, produced in the late 1980s and early 1990s in Brazil. It was a design unique to South America, although it bore a family resemblance to the Volkswagen Jetta. After 1990 the Wagon was discontinued from the North American market; it was the last two-door wagon offered in the US. However, the Fox sedan and coupe lasted until 1993 in the US. Early models (1987–1989) feature Bosch Jetronic electro-mechanical fuel injection known as CIS-E. The CIS-E system used an Oxygen sensor to assist in fuel management to meet emissions requirements. VW offered a standard 2 and 4 door sedan with a 4 speed transmission and a "GL" sport model with a 5 speed transmission. In Canada the Fox from 1987-1989 was offered with the simpler Bosch CIS fuel injection system. The CIS injection system did not utilize an Oxygen sensor as part of an engine fuel management system. The Fox sported a longitudinal mounted 1.8L, 81 hp (DIN) engine, sharing components with the VW Golf of the era. VW never offered the Fox of this generation with an automatic transmission in the North American market. The Fox had a squared off front end with rectangular sealed beam halogen headlamps, while the final U.S. version (1990–1993) had Bosch Digifant electronic fuel injection and a more modern styled front end with glass headlamps. Volkswagen did not sell any subcompact cars in Canada until 2007, when the Volkswagen City Golf and Volkswagen City Jetta began sales.
In South Africa, the Volkswagen Fox was a model based on the original Jetta, but featuring the front end of the Citi, a facelifted version of the original Golf Mk 1, which was in production in South Africa until late 2009.
In the United States and Australia the Audi 80 was badged as the Audi Fox during the 1970s. The Australian version was assembled locally by Volkswagen Australasia Ltd.
Echt spijtig dat dit model enkel in Amerika te krijgen was, want vind het best wel vet, een 3-deurs stationwagon. Die kofferklep vind ik zalig.
Laatste (veel) te laag naar mijn mening maar wel leuke wielen eronder.
Ooit wil ik er nog een in huis halen... ooit.
Er bestaan trouwens ook sedan versies van de Fox, maar die vind ik minder interessant, die lijken op de Jetta (en vind de Jetta zelfs mooier).
