Suspension is crapping out at 80k, but I think driving over a bridge to work and back didn't help (those damn expansion joints on the bridge are rough).
The locks freeze up in winter. Same problem on my last Volks. Totally sucks.
I like my car. It's got great highway speed performance, had nice handling (gonna get the suspension redone soon), and seemed pretty reliable overall.
Interior is great and doesn't wear out.
I think I'll keep it as a winter car when I get my next one (BMW, SAAB, or a Corvette :)
Far out dude. Have you driven a 60s Beetle or Kombi? Bulletproof reliability, easy on the environment. That's what its all about, man. BMW? SAAB? Vette? Think of the flowers and Dolphins dude. Don't you think? Chill out man. Peace man. (Cue: puff of smoke)
Some wd-40 works for the locks.
Can y tell me a little bit about the performance, horse power, top speed acceleration etc.
