1999 Volkswagen Cabrio GLS review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Heated seats relay stopped working. Airbag ECU went out. Little electrical problems, and latch for glovebox attached to dash and had to replace whole glove box because latch broke.
General comments?
Fun, sporty car, but could use an extra amount of HP. Leather interior is nice, but too many electrical components/accessories, which make it expensive to repair. Power top a plus, also, but expensive if electrical problems stop it working.
