Cute but terrible - 2001 Volkswagen Cabrio
By Brittany - August 13 - 10:46 amI got my 2001 VW Cabrio as a high school graduation gift two years ago. My dad was so proud that he could get it for me, but now we are very very upset! Its been one thing after another with this car! It may be cute, but the upkeep and all the money going into it is an awful lot of hassle. First both front window dont roll down or up. My AC doesnt work. Timing belt wore before it should have. My seat is broken, my shifter shaft is completely worn. I took it to the dealer two days ago and the price to fix the AC and the shifter shaft was 1900. Youd think because it was German designed you get what you paid for, no. You dont. Dont get this car. it is cute but you are naive if you do.

Cabrio Fooled Me - 2001 Volkswagen Cabrio
By Meliz - September 29 - 7:40 amDont be folled by its cute appearance. There is a reason why VW no longer makes these. It is strange how all the problems started to occur on mine right after the 25,000 mile factory warranty was up. I have never had a car before that has needed a new exhaust system at 25,000 miles, not to mention new brakes immediately after that. In addition, be warned that you can only get engine coolant for this car at a VW or Audi dealer service departments, which can also lead to expensive repairs and a long wait to even get an appointment. For those of you who are winter drivers, the Cabrio for sure is not the car you want to deal with snow and slush in.
