2002 Volkswagen Jetta GL review from Mexico
"It's less than what the salesman offer"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
- First of all the dealer give me the car with some scratches in the paintwork, one week later they fix it.
- When the day it's cold or in winter when I start the engine it fails for the first kilometer then when get warmer start to run smooth.
- The sound it's very nice for the cost of the car.
- The car it's very slow even if it has the 2.0 Liter engine.
- The seats get dirty very quick (obvious it's not the leather kit)
- It has very nice handling in the curved roads.
General comments?
It's a nice car, good looking, even pretty, but the performance has a lack of punch. The handling it's just fine and can effort some mistakes of the driver.
The interior it's not so roomy, but quite comfortable.
For the price I pay for it, I think I won't buy again a Jetta, maybe a Beetle or a GTI, but not a Jetta.
