1981 Volkswagen Jetta Reviews, Pricing & Specs

I work in the petroleum industry in Canada and take this car off road quite a bit down logging traiis. I now own a pickup for work, but; this car has endured so much for rough roads and I received it quite used and it still holds. The mechanical diesel engine is easy to repair and runs like a top, not necessarily good for racing, but INCREDIBLY economical on fuel and the engine is reliable. The only quandary about the car's mechanical system is the cable breaks, I had a couple of issues with the break line being tight, they still functioned, but gave fair warning of any potential failures. The door handles feel a bit cheap and same with some of the interior.Feb 24, 2009
