        Love love love it! Will miss it terribly.

        I have owned various Rabbit/Cabrios since 1978 and have loved every one! The one and only thing I would improve is to have an automatic top. The only reason I'm trading it in is because I'm in a wheelchair since 1977 and can no longer get my chair in and out with worn out shoulders. Will miss it so much. Miss the easy parking, great gas milage, comfy leather interior sporty feel etc.

        This is a great first car, or a fun summer car

        I had one of these for about 4 years as a daily driver. It is probably about as fuel efficient as you can get for a convertible. It has adequate power to get around, and is very easy to park. On a cold winter day the convertible top doesn't seem to hold much heat, so I'd recommend having a winter car if you live in a cold climate, or invest in a good pair of driving gloves if it's going to be below about 10 degrees F. However aside from the heat, I've been pleasantly surprised how well it's handled in snow. Any maintenance problems I've had have been routine expected problems with a nearly 20 year old car (ignition coil, new convertible top, tune ups, brakes, etc...) These are well designed solid cars that should be worth more than they are selling for!
