2006 Volkswagen Jetta review from North America
"Awesome power and fun to drive!!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Squeaky front shocks at 5000 km, covered by warranty.
General comments?
The car is really fast and handles really well.
The only "negative" thing I got to say is that it's too thirsty (and it's Premium also). I get about 450km per full tank driving normal, and 350 km per tank driving fast, but I still LOVE it!!!
