1990 Volkswagen Jetta GL review from North America
"It's good for getting somewhere, but not in style."
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The interior upholstery has started to fall down.
The exhaust system has fallen to pieces.
A fuse blows just about every week.
The glove compartment has fallen apart.
The drivers side window has quit working.
The crank on the sunroof has broken off.
General comments?
I bought it off of my uncle for 300 dollars. I didn't know it was a broken egg on wheels. He bought it off another uncle, who, quite obviously, didn't take care of it.
