1994 Seat Marbella review from Germany
"Very basic, but reliable and cheap on gas"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Fuel Intake got clogged, causing the car to stall. ADAC fixed it on the spot for about 40 euros.
Moon-roof leaked sometimes.
General comments?
Very reliable car that got great gas mileage. It's a very cheap car, I bought it for about 200 euros in 2000. Very basic, kind of a cramped feeling. It won't go over 120 km/h, which is a real pain on the autobahn, sometimes if I drove down a hill it would go up to 140km/h. The stock stereo was awful, very weak speakers. But it got the job done.
