I've been looking at cars for over 4 months, test driving dozens of models and researching them thoroughly. I pretty much decided against getting a new car because nothing I drove impressed me. That was until I test drove the Golf. This car put a serious smile on my face when I drove it and equally important, it was the only car that seemed solidly built (for under 30K) and just had an air of quality that the others lacked. The interior materials are particulary well done.
what a relief

I test drove my brother's 2001 VW golf and loved it and decided to get a 2002 gls golf. Within the first year of having it i have had a lot of minor probs: all 4 doors completely freeze shut if there is freezing rain/snow, making me climb through the trunk and do power kicks to open them (and i am no weakling either), i had a faulty air intake boot clamp causing my car to completly stop running at rush hour on a highway exit ramp, an ABS recall, and lots of extra noises.
so so

I just bought a GLS a week ago. The check engine light was on 2 days later after I took it home. The dealer said it was caused by loosed fuel tank cap and fixed it. A week later, I added more gas into the tank and tighten the cap, the check engine turn on again just in 1 day. I have to take my car to see dealer for 2nd time in 9 days. I heard that VW would replace the car if the same problem appears in a year/10,000mile, I do wish this is true, but who knows?
