2005 Volkswagen Jetta GLS review from North America
"I love it, for what I paid for it I couldn't be happier"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing major has gone wrong minus when taken in to the dealership they adjusted my fuel gauge. I had to take it back in to readjust it.
General comments?
I find the car fun to drive and it corners well.
During the winter with all the construction and ice where I live the car handled very well.
The heated seats are nice and the interior is comfortable to me.
Not super comfy for people in the backseat though (especially taller/heavier set people)
LOVE the milage. Diesel is cheaper than gas here so for me it's a great deal.
