1997 Volkswagen Cabrio review from North America
"Expensive not reliable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Cabrio top is the biggest problem. It is not easy to clean, has become sticky and there is a pungent rubber/plastic smell coming out of it. That smell makes the driver sick.
General comments?
It was fun to drive, but.. now it is noisy, smelly and is not at all good for commuting. Door handles have chipped too.
