1986 Volkswagen Cabrio cabriolet review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Clutch cable has broken twice in four years.
Pedal assembly weld broke at approximately 200,000 miles.
Radiator has been replaced once in four years.
General comments?
The car handles good and is extremely reliable for a high mileage car.
The only thing is you should only have mechanics with a knowledge of german cars service the car.
