2001 Volkswagen Passat GLX review from North America
"Great car, No complaints, a must buy"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Nothing really. CD player has bugs, but works. No big deal. Easily fixed.
Rubber coating on interior door handles is peeling, not a big issue.
General comments?
First half of the production year 2001.
My first car.
Great car, handles exceptionally well and has ample power.
Comfortable ride and well laid-out interior, for a car with almost 100,000 miles, it looks and drives like new.
I read some of the reviews on this vehicle on this site before I purchased it, and I believe that they are rare occasions of problems. If you are looking to buy one, don't judge the car on most of these reviews, because if I did, I wouldn't have known how pleased I am now with the car.
