1993 Volkswagen Golf CL review from Mexico
"Lovely"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The alternator makes so much noise so I have to replace a pice made of iron, and send it to be made bigger so it could fit like it has to.
Spends so much gasoline.
In winter the was a time here smoke came out from the starter, I really never knew was that, but it scared me at first.
I accidentally crash it 3 times, bad luck.
Spend so much gasoline.
In winter the alternator makes a funny noise before it warms up.
General comments?
Very comfortable to be in the back side.
Nice to drive in highways.
0 to 60 in 7.5 second, is my best.
The price for services with the dealer are extremely high and please take a moment to consider that here in my country (Mexico) Technicians usually sont do the full service, even if you pay for it.
Replacement pieces are extremely expensive, sometimes I had to pay almost $50 U.S. for a part.
If you put a Sound over 135 dB the car makes the perfect resonance.
Women love to be on the back side.
