1998 Volkswagen Golf GTi review from North America
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Blinker light failed.
Inside leather trim on the passenger door bubbled and was replaced.
General comments?
Really quick car, fun to drive. Wondering if the car will last a few more years without serious problems?
