I'm sure it was just a US Jetta that someone slapped a 'Bora' emblem on. You can order them online.

Yeah when I went to Merida, Mexico they had Boras instead of Jettas. You older Bug fans would love it there. Most popular car by far down far. They also had some hatchbacks that were not made in America. And a VW truck actually.

Hey LeftLane, You to get on the VW of Mexico web site and the VW of Brazil web site. You will see VW stuff that will blow you away. We get all the junk.  The only VW's ever built in the U.S. were the Rabbits '80-83(?) and later the Rabbit P.U. (Caddys) in Westmoreland PA and control/ ruined by the U.W.A. VW closed the plant due to the very poor quality of product. Now we have the new Passat (Camery)  made here. I hope this car is better than the early ones.
    I think most of the Bugs were on Taxi duty and still are. I don't think VW ever will make a car that is more loved and dependable than the old faithful Beetle. You young dudes driving Watercools will never understand that.

Lefty, don't take offence to Ret.BugTech.  Some people as they age become hard of hearing, he is so old that he is hard of reading...

We are a pretty laid back bunch,
Glad your here  - Cool story.

That has nothing to do with being from North Georgia.  It's his A.D.D. kicking in.  He's still trying to decide what he wants to be when he grows up!    Maybe after he gets that figured out he can figure out what kind of VW he wants to drive.  One day he shows up at work in a Passat, the next in bus . . . today he showed up in Rabbit convertible.  And a while back, he couldn't even decide which side of the car he wanted to drive from!   

Seeing how KC is N.Ga's Arab Trader and $5.00 a gallon gas  right around the corner. I  wouldn't be surprise if he showed up on a Camel. The problem is, would it be a "one humper" or a "two humper"?

Tell me more about the diesel.

RBT: You'll hopefully be spotting me in either the '82 Wabbit vert, or the soon to be new to me '83 4 door Wabbit Diesel.
I was gonna throw a "you got a pretty mouth" joke at you, but then I figured you had heard that before and it wouldn't yank your chain....

Go ahead and throw it and see what happens.   The forums are getting boring again I sort of been looking for a decent Rabbit Diesel myself seeing that I have 500 gallons of fuel in my basement

Megan and I could probably figure out a way to do something with 500 gallons of anything flammable!!! I'll go fire up the back hoe and trench my way over
