1994 Volkswagen Jetta GL review from North America
"Good reliable car, I would buy another"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The exhaust rusted out, well was rusting out when I bought the car. Replaced it with cherry bomb turbo. Added a few HP and didn't change the sound which was nice.
Solenoid. the cable from ignition to the solennoid broke. I got it fixed twice, then when it broke the third time I rigged up a push button to send power to my started. Works great ever since.
General comments?
The car does not like to take turns at a high speed. Inside is very comfortable, I could drive for hours. Unfortunately I only get about 800km to a tank of fuel.
