2003 Volkswagen Jetta - Starter Vehicle

I bought this car from a certified dealership. The car was used, with 32,000 miles on it when I bought it. Upon test drive, the car ran smoothly and comfortably. I loved the leather interior and ice cold air conditioning. It was an automatic with "trip-tronic" gears that I could shift myself. The sporty aspects of this car sold me the most. During the test drive, the moon roof kept opening by itself, which I didn't like too much, but I bought the car anyways once they assured me the moon roof would be fixed.

Story

I would take this vehicle to the beach everyday after work. Not always did I take it to the same beach, as everyday was a new beach adventure. It got tons of sand and salt smell in it, which made the vehicle that much better to be in. It always got me to the beach, and it always got me back home.

Pros

The vehicle fits 5 people, has a great body, and included moon roof, cd player, air conditioning, heated seats, roomy trunk, leather seats, tape player, tinted windows, ABS brakes, V6 engine, and low mileage. The car is fast, and speeds up to 65 MPH in only a few seconds. Great handling on curves and around corners.

Cons

The vehicle's engine is made up of primarily plastic parts. The hoses and coolant consistently leaks. The vacuum hoses have broke, needing a full repair. The cars fuel injector has failed, and needed to be replaced. All of these repairs cost over a 1,000 dollars per repair, because it is a German vehicle and parts are more expensive. The interior of the car was falling apart, with door handle trims falling off, and knobs on the radio player falling off and breaking.

2010 Volkswagen Jetta -

I absolutely love my car. It is good quality at a reasonable price. I've been driving it for over 5 years and I cannot complain.

Story

Shortly after purchasing the car I went on an impromptu camping trip with some neighbors. I folded both the seats down and emptied the trunk, and had plenty of room to sleep inside the car.

Pros

The leatherette interior looks great and is easy to clean and maintain. The exterior color is great and the special extra treatment (I forgot what it is called) that was recommended by the dealership has kept it very shiny. I like that this trim came with 17in wheels, they are a great touch! The trunk is very spacious and the fold down rear seats come in very handy. The fold down center in the rear seating area is nice because I don't have to break down my fly rods. This car also handles very well in the snow for being a 2-wheel drive vehicle, especially with good snow tires. I also really... (more)

Cons

The blue tooth system broke relatively quickly, in under a year. You have to find a dealership or automotive shop that specializes in German autos for maintenance. Low-profile tires to fit the bigger wheel size can be very expensive. There seems to be a lot of blind spots, and my significant other has made this observation as well.
