    Cheers

    It's pretty much the same as the Golf but with a boot instead of a hatch and built in Mexico afaik.

    So look out for usual Golf issues, avoid the basic old 1.6 litre 8 valve engine, try and get a 1.4 TSi or one of the diesels. Like the Bora and Vento before it VW try to pitch the Jetta as a more upmarket saloon which brings it very close in price to the bigger Passat. In that price range people tend to go for the Passat.

    I can't see the point of buying a 07 Jetta 1.6 petrol? For similar money you'd get a brand new Skoda Octavia 1.9 tdi in July. Its the same car except its better built, the road tax will be €150, you'll get 55mpg out of it in real world driving to offset the current higher diesel prices and it would be a much nice car to drive.
    The cons: badge snobbery.
    If you don't want to go for a Skoda, look at the 1.6 diesels in the Focus, Mazda 3, Citroen C4's, Kia C'eeds ranges. You'll be able to buy a new one of these for approx ,€21k in July.
