Faulty distributor cap, if you go through a puddle the wrong way, water gets in the engine and stalls the car.
Driver & passenger side window motors have gone bad since I have purchased the car.
I personally really love my 2001 GLX. It is expensive to own in the sense if it breaks down, but I have had pretty decent luck with mine. The Cabrio is one of the quietest and most comfortable convertible I have ever ridden in. The features are very nice and it is comfortably seat a family of four with plenty of room to spare. The size makes it perfect for city driving, and you can expect around 24-27 city, and 28-32 highway, depending how you drive. The trunk is bigger than it seems, and can store a lot of gear. The stereo system in it is very loud and crisp, and the styling on it is very nice. I was in a car accident in my old 1998 Cabrio, and I can say it is a very safe car for the size of it.
The car itself is pretty slow. It should get better gas mileage for how small it is, but you still won't be let down.
With Volkswagen, it's either a hit or miss. You either get a great one with minor problems, or a headache waiting to happen. I have been really happy with both Cabrios I have owned, and yes, I will be getting a third!
I would be very appreciative if a perchase price was posted for these comments. If there are purchase prices posted for them that I have over looked, then I apologize for the inconvenience.
