1998 Volkswagen Jetta Wolfsburg Edition review from North America
"Awesome car, close to perfection"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear left window quit working.
One door lock knob broke off.
Everything else was general scheduled repairs.
General comments?
Super safe, solid, powerful. The New Yorker Magazine rated it among the safest of cars, noting that it is certianly for proactive drivers.
Reliable, high quality, like a BMW for a fraction of the price.
Best car I ever had.
Fog lights help tons in humid climates.
Sound system fantastic.
