Fantastic build quality with proven reliability and solid diesel engine, mated to a 5 speed gearbox. Economy is awesome and never fails to start, even in the middle of winter. These pickups can also be lowered and given additional styling parts to help improve the street cred of these very popular and practical vehicles.May 17, 2010

This truck was my baby. I bought it for $600 out of a field. It didnt have a ton of rust on it yet. Just the corners of the doors. I swapped the diesel engine for a 1.7L Jetta engine and put a 2 barrel weber carbuerator on it. This thing accelerated like it was going to rip the halfshafts off. I had it painted some type of GM blue with a chrome pinstripe. It had a cherry bomb muffler on it that sounded pretty good for a 4cyl.Oct 28, 2009

badass. fun to drive, decent to work on. just being an older car it had tons of problems. i swapped in a 2.0L I4 from a 96 GTI, full motor swap and all wiring after the stock motor started to crap out (terrible injection system). everything that i hadn't already replaced began failing on me and being a NY car it was falling apart. bitter sweet seeing it go but alas...moving on...Sep 29, 2009
