If you so much as mutter the letters "VW" on here, a lot of times there will be a lot of disgruntled (and often misinformed) knee-jerk responses about how bad the brand is, etc. My experience has been great - my mother has a 2000 Jetta TDI that has over 200k on it with hardly any problems, and so far my GTI has been trouble free as well.
