Living with it
Reliability
I had a minor prob with carb getting mucky and the FEAD belt disappeared once.
Image
Super cool for a seventies sleeze junkie like me!
Comfort
Not great for back sufferers and mind your head when you get in! If you are 5 ft 10 tall it's hard to get your legs under the (unadjustable) steering wheel, I adopt a sort of frog posture!

Security and Service
Security
Easier to lock yourself out than to break in!
Service
I never really used VW as they were expensive.
