It was a horrible rustbucket, after a year the whole rear axle was rusted and the fuel pump was defective (among other things). It lost Diesel and oil at the same time, there was always a large puddle under the car when you had it parked for some time. The German TÜV does also consider these cars as very bad and more prone to rust than the Golf III.

Ingo ◊ 2011-08-17 13:14	This is true. All cars from the Lopez-times, either VW or Opel, have to be strictly avoided. This rule-of-thumb is not new, it's known since that times.
