Paddie 3rd Gear July 25, 2014 Share July 25, 2014 maybe it's not GB problem, fuel ran out also need tow lah think positively I know for a fact that VW tows cars to and from their paint shop in Tuas for any bodywork or paint repairs. A couple of years ago I got my car's fender repaired after a scrape, they towed my Golf from Tuas to Alexandra after the repair to return it to me. One of my friends still spotted my car and WhatsApp me the picture, he thought I had a breakdown 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Camrytron 6th Gear July 25, 2014 Share July 25, 2014 I know for a fact that VW tows cars to and from their paint shop in Tuas for any bodywork or paint repairs. A couple of years ago I got my car's fender repaired after a scrape, they towed my Golf from Tuas to Alexandra after the repair to return it to me. One of my friends still spotted my car and WhatsApp me the picture, he thought I had a breakdown I see. I think the 2 jetta I saw being tow must be free car wash by VCS so in order not add in mileage so VCS use tow for car wash than return back.VCS thumb up man. No AD will do it.

Yuan 6th Gear July 25, 2014 Share July 25, 2014 Hearing horror stories is one think. Being part of the horror story is another, esp if you are the murdered victim. Unless you don't mind taking 120k to play tikam, go ahead with the car which has known problems. The Japanese cars are boring and dated but they seemed more reliable, although it's also depends. The only version of the Jetta I would consider is the GLI. I would also consider the GLI. Wonder why it is no longer selling. Although Jetta GearBox's negative impression, but its sales figure don't lose "sell like hot cakes" Mazda 3 and Altis I would seriously consider the new Mazda 3. Having said that, I do not regret owning and driving a VW. Despite the mechatronic unit failure which I had experienced, it is still a good driving experience. My 2 year old VW is clocking close to 90,000 km in mileage. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
