1999 Volkswagen Cabrio (new) Consumer Reviews

I love ❤️ Cabrios. Standard has more power than automatic and better gas mileage. I currently have two 2002 models that are both automatic and a 2000 that is standard love my standard.

Mileage okay. It’s really a two seater, and a big guy fits comfortably. By using the garage the top,

Fun to drive, great gas mileage low cost to fill up, great horsepower, anti theft system, heated seats , Bluetooth audio.

I have always loved older Volkswagons and I thought I'd look cute driving one. I bought this car 5 years ago with 86000 miles on the odometer and it hasn't given me a reason to not trust it to commute. I commute about 40 miles total a day (20 to and from work) and only recently it started giving me problems. The roof is starting to become a bother due to the new leaks and my fuel pump is starting to fail. I just had to get it towed for the first time due to an unexpected shutdown of the car. At the time I didn't think about what could be wrong with my car only that it stalled and wouldn't start. The man who towed my car home said that he drove the car onto the bed of the truck. Soon after the man at the shop said that it was my fuel pump and that they sometimes do that when they start to fail. I knew something was bound to go wrong when you have a car that is 19 years old and hasn't broken down in 5 years. The car is very fun to drive due to the fact that it is a convertable. The 2.0L I4 engine is excellent on gas getting 30ish miles to the gallon highway. The interior is very well designed other than the fact that the center console is a little close to the E-brake handle and over time it slowly works its way loose. I have the Monsoon audio system and love it. The treble and mid-range are great but the bass isn't as good. The seats are heated and are nice in the winter. The AC hasn't given me any other issues other than adding coolant here and there. I did go the cheaper path with my catalytic converter. I just smashed out the cadmium and reinstalled the empty pipe, I need to fix that right soon. The trunk does seem tiny in pictures but is a lot bigger than what meets the eye. The only con with the trunk is that the opening to the trunk, It is hard to fit many things bigger than grocery bags through that opening.

Great little car. I would not want to have this as my only transportation but it is fun to own and drive. High mileage makes me question making long drives I enjoy tinkering so enjoy this car.

I bought my 02'cabrio after my divorce and before my mid-life crisis.Lol. I always wanted the volkswagen rabbit convertible back in high school, and now I finally have my car. Several expensive repairs later, I really should consider selling it, however, the minute I get in my cabrio, it makes me happy!! I love to drive this car along the beach roads at sunset. So, that being said, since it is my second vehicle, I guess I will keep it around awhile. I asked the cabrio to please just give me 6 months in between repairs. The deal seems to be holding up so far. Lol
