It works well for daily driving, and for transporting R/C model airplanes. As might be expected, there will not be a hatchback version of the next Malibu. I'm hoping there will again be a Passat TDI wagon by the time I am ready to replace my Malibu. I get OK mileage, but would get 50% better with a TDI. Before you start flaming me for talking about a Chevy on this group, I have a VW, an '86 Cabriolet, which is why I am here. The Cabriolets were made in Germany in '86, while the Mk II Golfs were made in Pennsylvania at the time. |
