2001 Volkswagen Beetle review from North America
"Good looking, but bad running"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I bought an 01 VW Beetle about 2 weeks ago.
I have to say, I noticed the crayon smell right away.. but I guess being blonde, I thought they waxed the interior or something.
My battery (so they say) broke the NEXT day I bought it.. but a different mechanic is telling me it's a Computer Chip. It's back in the shop again to fix this "battery" problem.
Either way.. VWs are nice, but run like junk. I don't recommend it at all.
