This car is a very all-rounder, good ride, it handles well, build quality is great, and theres tons of space even for a 2 door hatch. enough room to carry a dresser in the back. For a car this small you would expect it to feel light and nimble, and it is. The steering is weighted perfectly for a car this size, and you feel very confident when you fancy driving as if your pants are on fire. Reaching into the back from the front seat is a little tight, but theres miles of room in front of you, so it makes up for it. The seats hold you in on tight turns, and it never gives you any sense that it is anything less that great to drive in any weather conditions.

After almost 100,000 miles I still don't have almost any complaints regarding this car. Engine, brakes and steering are great. I have done all the regular maintenance schedules and repairs at VW dealerships and they were very resonably priced, honest and never tried to upsell anything or charge for unecesarry repairs. Unbelievably, the only things I've had to change during the past 100,000 miles were tires, a couple of light bulbs and the battery. Everything still feels as tight as when I bought it. I suspect I will never have a better and more reliable car after this one.

This car has been fantastic since we purchased it in 2012. We are the second owners and have never needed any maintenance on the car in this time. The car has more get-up than most people think, and is the smoothest clutch i've ever driven. All around a great car and has held its value incredibly well.

G reat for all ages. Built strong and looks clean. Performance wise, this car handles great and it pretty quick. The cost of this car is around 18,000 out the door. this car is very fun to drive. i recommend it to anyone.

The Rabbit is a great car. While not as powerful nor performance driven as the GTI or the R32, it definitely gets the job done and is a fun car to tool around in. The cornering is really impressive, even stock. Second gear is where the power kicks in. I've found that you get slightly better MPG performance with the ASR off - which is their anti-skid protection. I will say that bringing it into the dealership for it's check-ups can be pricey, but, I haven't had any mechanical issues with it at all for the past 2 years.
