actually since you can afford a mondeo on RM198k, why you don't consider BMW 316 or audi A3?? pricing very similar but brand is different...

I'm getting a pre-reg Mondeo at RM151, 1 year old car with 4000km clocked. RM190k is beyond my budget. nod.gif

Hi Jetta owners,
Have thought to replace my Myvi with Vios, but then recent VW ads "
Drop Everything’ Sale"
Jetta selling at RM88k years 2014, the deal sounds good to me. Have a test drive Jetta, totally falls in a first test drive, very impressive with acceleration, stability and handling compare with vios. After Google it, the things that Malaysia feedback negative on DSG transmission. That why directly drop into forum asking real opinion Jetta owner's on the reliability of the car before making any decision on invest.

I would honestly tell you that you won't get your answers on this. The only way is to read all the old post and see comments and make your own judgement. This thread starter mozart89 ended up buying jetta sport and based on his feedback so far he don't encounter much issue after driving more than one year. You also need to understand what he did in order to maintain his car.

Alot of people complain about the problem they faced when driving their car but they never tell you what they did on it that cause the breakdown. This is important. Some can be really design issue but other might be not following instructions, some just purely badluck and got a defective product. There is no one universal answer. Alot of them also heresay or never own one volkswagen so you don't know. trying to get more and more this kind of answer is wasting your time.

Volkswagen do not do this kind of huge discount sale everytime. My cousin got his polo GTI on this kind of sale last time and that was in 2007 or 2008. Only after 8 years I encounter this kind of sale again. For me if I don't get one now I will regret forever. Honestly ask yourself when can you get this kind of pricing for a volkswagen car.

For those people who think volkswagen doing this kind of sale is because their reputation is stake therefore they need to dump price then you are wrong. Because they did this sale before in 8-9 years ago.

a number of years ago when I asked an old wise man about continental cars, he answered me the following

"if you can accept that the spare parts and labour is 2-3 times more expensive compared to proton or perodua, then you are good to go"

what he mean is outside workshops, not service centres

by the way, he owns one BMW and one Mercedes. both old models
