We’re heading back to Ireland this week and I’ve rented a VW Jetta here in California.
Interesting as I’ve never had a European car as a rental here before in more than 20 rentals.
It’s basic with cloth seats, 6 speed auto gearbox, hard plastics everywhere including above the armrest on the doors...
Sound system is good and handles pretty well.
Engine is turbo charged, sounds like a diesel but revs to over 6000 and is very keen to get into top gear.
I’m about to drive it over 200 miles today so will have a better idea what it’s like then..
Funny thing is, it feels so good to be in a German car again. There’s just something about them that makes them stand out from the ordinary car.
