Through no fault of its own, the front was backed into, bent steel front engine mount enough for timing belt to run slightly off-center. Lost belt, bent valves, took apart, new valves, re-sized pistons (100,000 miles) . Took to road, up to 55, lots of smoke, started acceleration running on its own and had to apply brakes to slow it down. Probably pulling oil from breather. Loaned car to guy with instruction not to over 55, he did but belt came off and bent valves. I towed it 20 miles home and gave it to some neighbor kids.Nov 13, 2012

First off they don't have the catagory for my car. !980 Rabbit Convertable 2dr sport package. The first year VW made it! awsome all the way. Fun to drive, great on gas, sporty as all get out! Will take a honda crx off the line while the guy girl is staring at you all the way!Sep 10, 2008

This was my first car which my mom got for me when i was 16. So I owned her from 1986 untill she died on a levee road in Lodi early in a summer morning in 1994 or 1995. I was very sad to see her go away and shed a couple tearsApr 23, 2008
