    Keep up on maintenance and they're very reliable cars. Problem is, most people don't keep to the maintenance schedule.

    i know they are very reliable, however the older models weren't without there problems. my mate has an 04 bora, everytime he sneezes inside the car it cost him $100. j/k it is a fanastic car though, one thing VW do well (at least in recent yrs) in build great engines, the V6 in his bora is something else...

    here, late model saturn SCs make good first cars, they are easy to handle, good space for a high schooler, great idea for the first driver.
