Here is my new to me MKIV Jetta. I picked her up back in October with only 38,000 miles on her. I've done the 40k tuneup and replaced a few pieces of interior trim that were beat up. All in all shes gorgeous inside and out. My first ever car was an 86 GLI and my second was a 92 GTI. I moved away...
