50,000 trouble free miles
Autumn 2017 purchase - and with manufacturer + dealer discounting - this brand new car was only $14,000 or so. Great on fuel (41 MPG City 60/Hwy40) Easy to use 5M, light clutch, good disc brakes. At 50,000 miles I've had ZERO issues

45,000 mile 2017 Jetta S (base model) owner revue
Late summer 2017 VW factory and dealer discounts made this 2017 Jetta "S" 1.4L turbo 5M available for $14337 out the door. After about 45,000 miles I've been trouble free - not one issue. Fuelly has me just under 41 MPG in 60 City/40 Hwy use The little turbo accelerates well and complements the easy shifting 5 speed manual - aided by smooth synchros which permit easy shifting. Light clutch action aids in the easy handling and "planted" road maneuvering...........

Very reliable car.
This car is more comfortable than any car I’ve owned. It is good on gas as well. I’m glad I took the time to research this car. It looks as though I’m getting a good bargain for my money spent. My previous car was an Acura TL.

Fun to own
My Jetta is fun to own but has a factory recall for the fuel rail. Tried to get it taken care of at Brandon Tomes McKinney dealership but they have horrible service in their service department. So I am currently still working on getting it repaired in hopes of not have a fire issue.
