Only problem with that is that repairs for VW's are coooooooooostly!! Mucho mucho bucks my friends, and for that reason I will never own a VW ever. Everything is expensive, and overengineered, which makes labor even more expensive.
IMO, stay away from the VW's and all German cars unless you have the bankroll to support the upkeep.
damn right they are costly. my cousin blew the tranny in is jetta and the estimate was over 2000 bucks! i hear every part is almost special order and its just so damn tight in there, along with confusing german engineering that quite a few shops wont even work on em.
