1987 Volkswagen Cabriolet Review
ProsStrong car (unless you get hit from the front and bend the 'shock absorbers' frame ie: unibody) ConsThe seating (and shifting) isn't the most comfortable, but that may just be me because i like the feel of a sporty car.

87 Vw Cabriolet — So solid. Everything on this car was mint and tight. Good on gas. Handled amazingly. Nothing beats leaving work, popping the top down and hitting the highway for some all natural air conditioning :D I bought this car off a dealer my Dad knows and it was a one owner! The roof was 'triple layer' and was just as warm inside as a regular car. If you ever get a Cabriolet, look for this type of top! |

ProsVery dependable! I have never loved another car! Most fun, comfortable, (cute) quiet, sturdy, economic, classy. Very few problems the first 20 years. ConsSome problems with locks. Heater knobs pull off. That's nit-picking!

Perfect — It fit me perfectly and was fun to drive. For work, it was extremely dependable every day with 100 mile commutes. The motor purred. I always felt safe and in control, as it handled well. Still gets looks everywhere it goes! I found it to be a very unique car-my lifetime car! Primary Use: Commuting to work |

ProsA blast to drive, Quick and nimble, turns heads (everybody knows someone who had one) ConsBack seat is for storage or pets, has a little quirky shifting for manual tranny but once you learn its not bad

Fantastic Car — I have had the car for three years now and it has been the best investment I've made in a long time. Very dependable and fun to drive, great gas mileage and a real head turner! This auto is a keeper. Primary Use: Family transportation |

Very Good — good acceleration, not so good brakes, handling could be better, roof rattles in bad quality roads... does not need too much money to maintenance because its an old car and it parts is very cheap! I run it on TNG so I get great mileage, dont known how many exactly. great fun on summer. Primary Use: Family transportation |

Prosfast little car ConsNo point for the rear seats

Awesome First Car — great on gas also fun little car for the weekends says it can seat 4 but i reconmend 2 rear seats good for storage and for a cabriolet it had a great sized boot. The only down side was the age of the car there were some obvious repairs that had to be done Primary Use: Commuting to work |

ProsFun to drive, solid engineering. ConsPerformance parts quite pricey if available.

1987 Vw Cabriolet — Very nice car that i would like to keep forever. With 300K miles on it still runs strong, solid body and suspension, 25-30 mpg. An outstanding testament to German engineering just like the 1972 VW Beetle I used to drive in the Philippines. |

Mk1 Golf Cabri 1.8 Gti — mk1 1.8 gti, possibly the worlds best car ever, karmann edition, absolutely gorgeous!! handles well, no faults with car at all. was cheap 2 buy due 2 no T/T but you wont find one very cheap. couple of thousand is about right. V fun car! love it loads!!!!! i would reccommend this car to anyone who likes classic cars. its not for the faint hearted or shy, as u will be getting a lot of looks, and the ride is a little bumpy. but put up and shut up, because u only need 2 look at the car and it will all be ok!! |

ProsI love this car! Looks get 5stars all the way! for the age of the car I get really good gas mileage (23 around town); handles great; feel safe and in control driving; bonus: its a fun car to drive ConsLeaky seal where windows and top meet; cant find a repair shop anywhere near me who will even look at any problems I have, they all say they dont want anywhere near a old vw that it is too much of a problem car and good luck finding a mechanic (thanks...really encouraging); slow acceleration

Love The Car Too Much — Even though I have problems with the car, that at times are very frustrating; I love this car too much overall to get rid of it. Problems: Leaky seal where windows and top meet; cant find a repair shop anywhere near me who will even look at any problems I have, they all say they dont want anywhere near a old vw that it is too much of a problem car and good luck finding a mechanic (thanks...really encouraging); slow acceleration Favorite Parts: Looks get 5stars all the way! for the age of the car I get really good gas mileage (23 around town); handles great; feel safe and in control driving; bonus: its a fun car to drive I would recommend this car to a friend as a weekend or going to the beach car (I live at the beach so it would be a short trip). But for an everyday car or for use on long trips, I would not recommend this car. Primary Use: Commuting to work |

ProsFun, Fun, Fun ConsRoof leaked and repair costs on the flex pipe exhaust

My Seventh Car — My first convertible car. This was a ton of fun in the sun. Fun to drive and fun to put the top down. Repairs on it were a little expensive with the flex pipe exhaust and problems with the cruise control. The roof did leak on the drivers seat that nothing really prevented during heavy rain. |
