2001 Volkswagen Bora GLS review from Switzerland
"Superb value and reliability, lacks power"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Check engine light for minor things I suppose. problems were fixed in a day and cost free. armwrest clip broke. 0 major problems. Burned oil a bit, told it was normal.
General comments?
Superb Value! Excellent Gas mileage as for about $5 a gallon here in Switzerland it is a nescessity. Wish she had more power however. Handles like a dream on the motorway. Used the vehicle mostly for travel throughout Europe. Perfect car for the motorways and fit in with the traffic on the autobahn just fine. Great in snow and mountians. Only sold her because I moved back to the states, otherwise would have kept her for sure.
