Volkswagen Jetta 1994Change

I'm the second owner of this car, having purchased it from my parents when it was about 14 years old. A lot of love and care has gone into it, but it shows. Only now is the body starting to show some wear; some key components will be needing replacement in the near future. Still, my biggest complaint about the car is a lack of features (e.g. air conditioning) not its performance. From a fuel efficiency standpoint, my manual Jetta gets nearly the same KPL as a 2005 automatic Civic! Add to that rock-bottom insurance rates, and it's a package that's hard to beat!

As an end note, my relatively poor rankings on comfort and exterior styling are only due to techonologic and stylistic progress. Were you to compare it to cars of the same vintage, they'd be 5 for 5.

The VW Jetta is a reliable fun to drive car. Lots of room instide and in the trunk. Great on fuel. The Jetta also looks good.
