Re: 2011 Volkswagen Jetta Highline AT I haven't really done justice to updating this thread, but here goes a parting shot... Its been more than 7 years, 82k km, and its been an absolute pleasure. The power and DSG always brought a smile. The size and space in the car was perfect. The looks havent really aged. Over the years, I have realized that there is very little that this car doesnt offer. So upgrading has been tough and a nearly 2 year process. The successor is from the same family, a Q5.
A few niggles did come along the way, though nothing major - the speed sensors all had to be replaced within a month of each other a couple of years back, the battery died on me once very inconveniently, but apart from that, its been a pretty hassle free ride. None of the initial worries panned out - DSG, ground clearance etc.
The family is really attached to it but also looking forward to the new vehicle. Thank you, Jetta, for everything! Also, thanks to everyone on this forum, who have contributed generously to every decision I have to make along the way, from small things like getting a bluetooth module to big things like actually finding the replacement.
PS: The car is up on the classifieds if anyone is interested. I would rather sell it to someone on this forum than a general dealer. |
