  • Living with it

    Reliability

    1 out of 5 1.0

    The VW reliability never found its way into the model I ended up with. despite low milage i've replaced alternator, brakes (flexes, pipesl, discs, pads, rear boots) exhaust, starter motor, rear shocks, clutch, rotor arm, that's what i can remember.
