1998 Volkswagen Jetta GLS review from North America
"I love it"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I purchased my Jetta GLS and within 5 years of owning the car I have replaced the brakes, engine fan, right ball barring and the wind shield wipers. Repairs always cost $500, but as a Jetta owner, it is expected.
General comments?
I love my Jetta! This is the best used car in the family! I bought my Jetta in 2003 as my first car expecting it to be a beater! I hoped it would last me 3 years. I am sad to say I have inherited a new car and the Jetta is for sale. I originally paid $5,500 for the car and it is currently for dale for $2,900 with multiple callers at the reasonable price! I would purchase another VW in a no time. I even convinced my sister and friend to buy Jetta's!
