| 2004 | 2dr Convertible 115-horsepower 2.0L I4 6-speed shiftable automatic FWD |

| 2000 | 2dr Hatch 115-horsepower 2.0L I4 5-speed manual FWD |
I bought this car as a "Certified Used". I replaced the main computer twice in the first 3 months. I have replaced 02 sensors every year, sometimes up to 3 a year. Repairs are expensive and required often. full 2000 Volkswagen New Beetle review |
