Utilitarian with fun

I have driven a TDI for 4 years now and still enjoy driving it. I live in Colorado so snow tires are neccesary in the winter but she is still fun to drive 4 years later. It could use a few more horses but for 50mpg it is hard to beat. Make sure you get the additive for the winter because fuel line freeze up will happen with the diesel.

VW - Service is Horrid

Fun car to drive, 5 spd, Diesel - real miser on the fuel - HOWEVER, once your warranties expire, nobody will help you. You become a leper. Electric window broke twice to $300 a pop. Electric trunk lock $180, Glove compartment $180. Cheap Mexican trash. I bought a Santa Fe - It Rules.

this is the most fun i've had driving a car since my old GTI. upgrade the turbo with a simple 10 minute chip upgrade and now you've got 200hp in a $19,000 car.

I'm sold on diesel.

The diesel model of the Jetta gets about double the mileage of its gasoline counterpart, and performs better! 45mpg in mixed driving after 4 years. Great with hills, passing, and cold mountain conditions. ABS works well in snow. Rugged interior components.

I'd Buy Again

These little cars are perfect for commuting. I've put on 60,000 miles since I purchased it and have only had to service the timing belt and clean the intake system due to diesel soot. I was unsure what to expect for maintenance with a diesel, but I've been very satisfied. This car is too small for a family, but has great pickup when driving solo. Get a manual transmission if you are considering this car - the autos are much slower!
