Perfection on a budget
By 17Jetta on Tuesday, November 15, 2022
I have owned for 6 years and 150k. On 2nd set of tires and only replaced rear brake pads and oil changes. Runs smooth and accelerates amazingly with 38mpg. Best car I've purchased in a while. Very reliable and fun to drive. - 5.0
Great Car!
By Rich on Tuesday, October 17, 2017
Im very happy with my 2017 GLI Manual. It feels solid, handles great, has plenty of power and is very refined. I love driving it and would make the same choice if I had it to do again. Fuel economy is better than expected. I cant speak to the reliability, but build quality is great! - 5.0
35,000 miles on VW's 1.4 turbo/5M
By ezshift5 on Monday, April 12, 2021
Purchased when VW was confronted by the diesel emissions legal proceedings. This situation resulted in deep discounts - - -both manufacturer and dealer. So I paid an extremely low price and have experienced zero defects since 9/2017 purchase. The small turbo - driven carefully - gets stellar MPG. Fuelly dot com calc just under 41 MPG in 65/35 city/highway use.
