AW Astro 4.0.6 Final

very sad to see the little guy die out was one of my first mods but he is slowly getting dead <3 hope it gets a remater like the maluch

Great mod, I love racing it against the other 2 AWs.
Openables would be nice tho

Great mod for its age

Aw Astro (or Etk A) is a mod made with love, and you can feel that from the first driving experience to the small details, configurations, and the numerous parts you might not even need—but they make you feel so good knowing you have infinite possibilities when it comes to modifying this car. The backstory is well-structured and well-defined, creating a pleasant sense of familiarity.

Slightly boxier than the real-life Mk1 Golf it’s inspired by, it still retains its proportions and feels like a car you could genuinely consider buying in the 1980s in the BeamNG universe. (I’m a sucker for lore-friendly mods.)

What truly saddens me is that, according to Nekkit, he won’t be working on this mod anymore, which is understandable considering that it has received 28 updates since its launch in 2021.

-Nevertheless-

This mod could have been so much more than it is. Sure, both the Cabrio and Country variants were warmly received by everyone, but it makes me wonder—where is the 5-door hatchback and the Rabbit Pickup? (I could also mention the Citi Golf—in Brazil, this car was so beloved that its production lasted until 2009. I would have loved to see such a configuration.)

In my futile attempt to spark Nekkit’s imagination and desire to work on this mod again, I want to thank him for the countless hours I’ve spent with this mod, which has been close to my heart from day one.

Negatives:
-The inability to transport cargo boxes is something I genuinely mourn.
-The 2024 standard for mods requires that all doors open, which is unfortunately missing here.
-Small spikes in the inner fender areas of the rear arches—but only a crazy, obsessive, and overly meticulous mind would even notice these.
-The inability to mount temperature or turbo gauges in the lower dash, or swap them for an ashtray, is a missed opportunity—and where did the gloveboxes go?!

Overall: 4.5 stars—but because this mod is fundamentally from 2021 and Nekkit never stops evolving in modding, I’ll give it a well-deserved 5-star rating.

This car must be part of your repository if you love lore-friendly campaigns and roleplay—flawless choice.

What was once great is now an outdated, below-average mod with no openable fixtures and missing materials.

My last review was a 4/5 because of the missing glass textures. These issues have been fixed with the final release, so this final version gets a 5/5 from me. Fantastic work Nekkit!

R.I.P. best car mod on BeamNG, it was one of my first mod, its sad seeing this die slowly

Does not deserve a 2 star rating

its awesome but fix the no texture please (favorite golf mod o :D

It was a good mod, but it's missing new features like openable doors and shifter animations and as of right now, it seems like its abondoned and there are already some textures breaking.

Love it, but there are missing textures on the lights and when the windshield is broken

Please add openable doors and dynamic mirrors

Openable update when?

Truly;y one of the mods. Of all time

cool it looks like a volkswagen golf from the 80's.

its a good mod but sadly there are broken textures.

Nice lil hatchback mod :)

the most not safe car

Fantastic!
