1995 Volkswagen Golf GL review from North America
"Not worth the price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
First of all, exterior moldings do not hold to the car. Lost many pieces will driving on the highway; reflectors, door moldings, and part of my muffler.
The engine is still going great. No problem with the transmission either.
Problems with the interior: dash lights are burnt. Horn, cigarette lighter stopped working. Sunroof squeaks.
General comments?
Generally, the car runs well and is dependable, mechanically that is. Other things like accessories and moldings fall off too easily. Good on gas.
