Question:
i had a 2000 nb for a while and when it started giving me too many costly problems i sold it and bought a very reliable nissan.
now i'm in the market for another car, a used one. and i keep seeing beetles and they're just so cute. i'd really like to get another one, but from what i've heard from other new beetle owners they have lots of problems as well...so it wasn't just the one i had.
i was wondering if there's a particular year/style that wasn't so bad for the new beetle. i'm a student and i can handle normal upkeep costs but i cannot afford to replace lights, o2 sensors, windows and gas release switches every few months. not to mention whatever it was that kept turning my check engine light on.
any input/advice/experience would be great.

Well usually VW are reliable cars with good quality. Like all others, they might have some problems but VW dealers should solve them, often for free. Try buying a newer model, the second and third year of production of any given car are usually much better than the first series.What can i do to make a 1996 mercury mystique anything close to a street car?
I had a 2001 new beetle, i never had a single problem with it, it was an amazing car. The only maintenance I had done was regular oil changes. I just sold it a couple months ago, and up to the day I sold it i still had no problems! It was a very reliable car for me. I now have a 2007 new beetle convertible. and have also not had any problems with this beetle either. I think Volkswagen's in general are great cars. As long as I drive, I plan to purchase only Volkswagen's.More Questions & Answers ...
