1999 Volkswagen Jetta Wolfsburg review from North America

"Commuter's dream"

What things have gone wrong with the car?

I happened to buy this car with 98k/m so I had to do a few things that were sort of scheduled; such as, two belts, a full tune-up, changed the double muffler and that's about it. again, those things were kind of expected at 98k/m. besides that I had to change the ignition cord which wasn't all that expensive to fix. no major worries.

Oh, and I forgot to mention that my left driver window doesn't work, but I bought the car like that so it doesn't really count, but if you want to buy one of these be aware that their electric engineering is kinda daft.

General comments?

This is my favorite car ever!!!... although it's a 99' I have the older body style which I like much better.

Fun to drive, very quick for a 2.0 engine, comfy, full of features, great gas mileage, awesome gear-box, roomy backseat (compared to the IV generation), great looks, excellent 6disc-CD player with 6 speakers.

And it seems like they have corrected all the problems of the previous years, such as electric thingies, etc. the only thing they haven't improved is the way their dealers work, but I guess all dealers are the same way or at least that was my previous experience with Honda and before with Ford.

Not the best at all under heavy rain conditions or snow.

Great vehicle, I feel like I'll most definitely pass the 200k/m with this one and then I'm getting another one because VW are just the whole package.
