1997 Volkswagen Jetta GT review from North America
"Great car and Very affordable"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The only thing that has gone "wrong with the car, is that the engine light went on because it was low on oil. But I suppose that was my fault.
The driver's side seat has worn on the edge closest to the door because it's where I sit in the seat.
General comments?
I love my car it handles very well at all speeds, it also handles every thing I have thrown at it. The fit and finish on this car is the best I have ever seen.
