10 yr review this car stoped working once because of a $2.00 20amp fuse. Ive litteraly replaced almost everything it even has a 2008 vw engine now but its a 2004. VW said there transmition is fine it slips I can accidently slide into any gear with just a nudge vw rips people off with cheap parts sold at high prices. The beetle it a lawn ornament once again in 2019 cant even sell it with out a tow

A Car With Personality

I picked it over the BMW and Mercedes CLK convertible. It says, "I'm fun and I'm happy" whereas the other convertible say, "I'm a snob." VW is one of the only convertible that doesn't strive to something it's not. It's not trying to be a luxury car. This car has so much more personality. Being a former BMW driver, I surprised myself when I picked the VW (fully loaded). I live in California, so I have the top down all the time. I can't even begin to tell you the number of people that give me compliments on it...while I am driving my car. My whole family loves it and sometimes I find my car missing because someone else borrowed it.

I got my VW Convertible as soon as they were fairly available and I have to say, this is by far the most fun car I've ever had. Top down or top up it's zippy and styled so well. You would never regret owning this
