Getting this car was my first time buying a car on my own. Prior to this I was driving a 2007 Chevy cobalt coupe and I hated it. Wanted a refresh and got all my money together for this and I was inlove with the Jetta immediately. Granted it was a huge step up from what I had, and there were much better cars out there, but it’s the peoples car for a reason. It’s reliable, fun, and nice to look at. Were my oil changes $85? Sure. But better than driving a Corolla.…

VW - in response to a world wide emissions issue - offered to buy my Jetta diesel.
The amount they offered - - - well it was similar to the "Godfather" film. (I took the offer)
I drove home in a brand new 2017 VW Jetta 1.4L turbo.
That was in late 2017. Since then I've not had one single issue.
The price I paid was heavily discounted - (both the dealer and
the the manufacturer offered deep discounts..............
About fuel efficiency: since new my CALCULATED (miles driven divided by gallons pumped) stands
at 40.1 in 65City/35 Highway.
My last comment deals with "Fun to drive"......a: very light clutch take-up and positive acting 5-speed transmission synchros make for pleasant operation (LA traffic aexcepted!!)
The car is "Pure White" (VW-speak) - and does well during hot summers in CA…
