Bought this car , 2016 Jetta GLI in ‘19… 39000 miles. Now has over 140000. Nothing but oil changes and new tires. I’m 58 and by FAR the best vehicle I’ve ever owned!! Wondering if I should trade up to a lower mileage car but it still amazes me every time I drive it. Fits like a well worn glove. A++ rating for me! Dec 13, 2024
