2015 Volkswagen Passat

by HenryS on 09-18-2020
Good Service at Capital-Cars dealer
I bought my Passat from the Capital Cars, The dealer service is very good and professional, the sales introduced with very details and experienced, this car is very clean and nice with auto service, it has the safety certificate for my car when pick up. I am very happy with their service and I have droved my car for about three weeks, and it is so far so good. I would like to refer this dealer to the buyers and thanks for the Capital Cars Dealer to allow me reached my car dreams, I would thank having such a good deal with surprise.

2019 Volkswagen Jetta

Trim: Highline w R-Line Pkg
by TroyBoy on 09-14-2020
Few glaring faults, keep good sedan from being great
Wanting a sedan with a manual transmission + a sunroof (my only must have requirements) narrowed the field of possible new cars depressingly quickly. But the Jetta was a compelling offer regardless; providing great value, decent performance and impressive fuel economy in a very handsome design (when equipped with the R-Line package). Though many reviews I had read praised the Jetta's ride, I don't find this to be the case. It is very harsh and even jarring - on two occasions, the glove box/sunglasses holder have popped open when hitting bumps. Passengers have also commented on the "metal on metal" feeling of the ride over even the slightest rough roads. Wind noise at any speed about 60km/h is beyond intrusive. The interior looks and feels much more upscale than many rivals, though there is a lot of hard plastics and glossy finishes that appear to scratch quite easily. The carpets also seem to just trap dirt and already look more worn than those in my 2007 Civic (280,000kms). Frequent cleanings are necessary to preserve the newness. The most impressive part of the Jetta is the fuel consumption - averaging around 6l/100km, and even going below 5 on longer hwy trips; easily getting 800+kms a tank (mixed driving + heavy foot). The engine is adequate - gets the job done, but you won't win any drag races - and the 6 speed manual is silky & very easy to drive smoothly. So far, aside from 2 sets of absolutely garbage factory wiper blades, the car has been problem free (about to hit 25,000kms). I'm quite happy with my purchase - just very disappointed with the ride quality & excessive wind noise - both of which keep me from loving what is otherwise, a very good offering in the compact car segment.

2017 Volkswagen Golf R

Trim: Manual
by ParkerM on 07-31-2020
The perfect blend between sensible and fun
This makes a great daily driver. It's pretty quick and fun, it looks good, it has a great sound system, android auto/apple car play, the interior is nice, the suspension is sporty but not super stiff and uncomfortable. It's good on gas for a sports car, and has lots of room for cargo. My 6'7" friend sat in the back for 8 hours pretty comfortably.

There is tons of aftermarket support for this car. You can make it look and drive however you want relatively easily.

The only complaint I have is the clutch is garbage. If you plan on adding any power at all you'll need an upgraded clutch first.

2001 Volkswagen Cabrio

Trim: GLX
by Shakka on 12-06-2017
so versatile and fun...
This and the Boxter are the only convertibles I know with roof rack options, and the Cabrio has so much room for such a small car to carry sports gear - deluxe trim, quality design and manufacture, sporty and fun to drive, insulated top and front wheel drive for good winter warmth and traction. The Cabrio has more room for passengers and gear than either the Beetle or Eos convertibles by quite a margin... If they still made it I would buy another (I've owned three), and have enjoyed my last one running in top shape for over a decade...

2010 Volkswagen Eos

by LDB on 11-25-2017
Best Vehicle Ever
I purchased this vehicle as a one owner leased vehicle in 2014. It had 50K on it and I have now had it for 3 years and the maintenance costs have been almost nothing. Best car I have ever owned and I used to have a brand new 2007 GM and it cost me more in the first year to maintain then the VW has cost in years. It is sporty, lots of instant power for getting on the highways and gas usage is reasonable. I'd buy another one anytime.

1987 Volkswagen Vanagon

by Enaan on 11-17-2017
Great Vehicle For Touring
Everything about my Vanagon experience was great expect for the fuel economy because I was getting roughly 15 miles-per-gallon on the highway, that can get frustrating but for an 87 what can you expect. Great adventure vehicle I used for going into logging country quite often.

2012 Volkswagen Tiguan

by Richard-LY on 11-11-2017
Reliable and affordable SUV
I believe purchasing a VW Tiguan is one of the smartest decision of mine.

The car is reliable and safe. I drove my Tiguan from Toronto to Quebec City this summer. Tiguan is very comfortable for long-distance driving. The seat space inside provide more than enough room for family. The cargo space is also great for family bulk purchase.

Will take you where you want to go
The car is a little dated now, but still runs terrific. I've had no issues with any of mechanical components. Just requires regular oil changes and runs smoothly. Has a surprising amount of jam for the 1.8L turbo engine. Would recommend it as an entry level car. It is standard and fun to drive

2003 Volkswagen Golf Wagon

Good ride, lots of maintenance though.
It has proven reliable if you have the money to keep up with the work, runs like a beauty when she's taken care of. Wouldn't suggest buying if you want something that basically takes care of itself though.

2017 Volkswagen GTI

by kyuss420 on 10-31-2017
2017 GTI Sport DSG
Like most people in this segment who are shopping for a fun to drive affordable sport car, it was hard chosing btw the GTI and the WRX as both car diving dynamic and performance are excellent. I chose the GTI for its quality interior and DSG as a daily driver over the WRX CVT. However, if you need awd, then get the WRX.

2010 Volkswagen Routan

Trim: Comfortline
by -ROUTAN- on 10-11-2017
Handles great, very quiet great stereo and dvdcdystem
I love this van. I have had 4 Caravans and they don't come close to the comfort, styling and ride. The VW suspension makes it a pleasure to drive, sorry....fun fir a van. Styling us way better than Caravan or Town and Country. I drove from Toronto to Frederiction and only filled up twice at $70/ tank. $140 for the entire trip. The 4 ltr engine runs at lower rpm's so engine doesn't have to work as hard. Can't say the same for city driving though. I had stow n go seats and for long trips they are really uncomfortable as the padding on the cushions are so thin. Routan does not have second row stow and go but man are the seats comfy. Much more cushion so much better for road trips.
It's too bad they stopped making these as I am looking to buy a new van even though mine still runs great.

2000 Volkswagen Beetle

Very economical car for comutting purposes
The car is extremely reliable. Cost effective with respect to gas mileage. The only downside is the fact that the interior is a bit cramped when you have more than 3 people in it and the cost for repairs is expensive. Overall it is best for daily driving to and from work.

2007 Volkswagen Rabbit

Trim: Comfortline
by Steve8552 on 10-07-2017
Not Fast but Bulletproof con't
I thought I'd add an update to a review I provided below. The car now has 193,000 km on it and still runs like a train, highly reliable with low maintenance costs. At around 175,000 km we had to replace the rear wiring harness as the loom wires had fatigued where the wiring goes from the body to the hatch. We bought the part from the VW dealership and did the job myself which wasn't very difficult. The car is very smooth and comfortable and feels like a much bigger car from inside. My comments about its speed, engine noise levels when revved and fuel economy were from the perspective of someone who's other car is a BMW335d with a Stage 2 Tune. I would have no hesitation about recommending the Rabbit/Golfs with the 2.5 litre 5 cylinder engine. While the engine may not be as refined as a BMW engine but its very strong and the car in general is extremely reliable (no unusual or expensive breakdowns/fixes to date). Over the 7 years we have owned this car the maintenance costs have been orders of magnitude lower than on my BMW.
