Piece of garbage!
General Comments
I bought one of these Volkswagen Golf Cabriolet 2.0 Avantgarde Sports Cars because of how it looked. How dumb do I look now? It's a piece of rubbish. It spends almost as much time in the shop as it does parked behind my apartment! I've spent thousands on it. I wish I had bought a hardtop of something else instead. It leaks all winter - which is fine if you don't drive in the rain and have a garage to put it into. You cannot keep the water out. The dealer told me I would have to spend $4250 on a brand new top for it if I wanted to stop the leaks! Keep in mind I bought it brand new in 2002, this is the GLX convertible Cabrio. Total piece of trash, avoid at all costs!!!! They test drive fine but all the little problems add up ... why do you think so many are for sale used. I have to get rid of mine, want it?
