1997 Volkswagen Jetta TDI review from North America
"An Excellent Buy! Affordable and Beautiful!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing has gone wrong. I just recently replaced the timing belt, timing belt tensioner, water pump, fuel filter, cabin air filter, engine air filter, and all belts. However these were just repaced as a precaution to make sure future problems don't arise.
General comments?
I love the car, great handling! Enough interior room for me 6'2, my wife, both kids in car seats and one in between them. The trunk on this thing is HUGE. Bigger that any other car I've owned even more cargo space that my Lincoln Town Car!
