    The 2018 Volkswagen Jetta GLI for buyers

    CarmaCars rents cars and does not sell the 2018 Volkswagen Jetta GLI; this page helps you judge it before you buy one elsewhere. Here is the 2018 Volkswagen Jetta GLI for buyers: fuel use, size, recalls and a test drive that lasts a week.

    A buyer's checks

    Look at the tires, brakes and battery; they are costly to replace. A pre-purchase inspection at a shop you choose is money well spent. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered. NHTSA has 31 owner complaints on file, mostly about unknown or other, air bags and fuel/propulsion system.

    Engine and fuel

    Under the hood: the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo and front-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. With front-wheel drive, the weight of the engine sits over the driven wheels, which helps in winter.

    A combined rating of 8.7 L/100 km works out to about 26 litres per 300 km. In money, 1,000 km costs about $134.90 at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

    When the Jetta makes sense

    It suits commuters, couples and business trips. It suits a stretch between cars, by the week or the month.

    The Jetta in everyday use

    Being a compact car, it is easy to park and comfortable on longer drives. The EPA lists 453 litres for luggage, roughly a family's bags for a long weekend.

    Drive it on your own roads

    Drive the Jetta on your commute before you commit to it. Try the Jetta on your commute, then decide. A test week in the Jetta tells you more than any review.

    Which one to look for

    A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Look at a few listings of the same year and trim to get a feel for fair prices. Set a budget that includes tax, licensing, insurance and the first set of tires.

    The cost of driving it

    Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Ask what a set of tires costs for this trim; sizes and prices vary. A 1,000 km month costs roughly $134.90 at our price setting.

    The Jetta and Farmbrook

    If you are starting from Toronto, rent the car here and drive it to Farmbrook. CarmaCars is based in Toronto, about 509 km from Farmbrook, and does not deliver there.
