2014 conv light blue bug.

2014 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible 2.5L 2dr Convertible (2.5L 5cyl 6A)

My wife bought this used VW in 2018, (its the same color as the1970 light blue beetle which was very cramp and uncomfortable inside) pros: This car has plenty of room in front seats and then some, it rides like a Cadillac and handles like a sports car, I love the automatic, manual or sport mode transmission, heated seats and mirrors, 3 led colors for speakers and door molding, the top and windows go down in 12 seconds even while moving, (under 20 mph) the Fender stereo w/cd player is the absolute best oem stereo system I have ever heard, the trunk space is a little small but you can fold down the seats to fit bigger stuff in the trunk, and 27 MPG. cons: no room in the back seat, and you cant park outside in the winter, the windows freeze, they wont open. other than that this is a fun car to drive

Love the look but breaks down constantly

2014 Volkswagen Beetle Convertible TDI 2dr Convertible w/Premium (2.0L 4cyl Turbodiesel 6AM)
1 of 1 people found this review helpful

My car has a little over 79,000 mi on it and it seems like every few months something breaks down requiring fixing. Whether it be the battery, certain parts, the engine, or the FSC, it seems like things stop working more than the car is worth. It seems to work a lot better in warm weather (places above freezing). The windows freeze and sometimes make it hard to open or close the door properly in winter. The rubber rim for the trunk had to be replaced after leaking all over and causing mold from rain. (I had to select a model to enter this review but I’m not sure which model so I randomly picked one. It’s a 2014 yellow convertible vw beetle)

Beetle R-line front seats are not comfortable for those of us with "larger bottoms" and legs. Also, expensive for a car in this segment.
