2002 Volkswagen Beetle GLS review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
VERY expensive to replace lost key or lost remote/alarm key. (in my case, both. I purchased this used car with only one key available: the valet key. to replace the remote/alarm key, at VW, it cost me $250 + tax!)
General comments?
Would you have REQUESTED the used car salesman to pick up this $250 cost (knowing you'd paid over 1,000 less the market value on the car)?
Other than that, so far, so good. I love the car!
