1999 VW Convertible Cabrio ?

As a mechanic I would say to stay away from it. They tend to have quite a few problems, especially with check engine lights coming on left and right. Where I work we have a joke that they come from the factory with the check enging light on, lol. In all honesty though, they handle nice and are a decent ride if you take care of them but can get pricey as the mileage goes up. I highly recommend a Toyota or Honda, they have very few problems and will run for hundreds of thousands of miles with plain old normal maintenance. I would say if you aren't worried about putting out money for repairs then the Cabrio isn't a terrible car, but there are better choices out there.
