I bought a '85 GTI in October of last year and I love it!
It handles great, it accelerates quite nicely, its comfortable to
sit in (even in the back seat), it even has a "trip computer" that
tells you your average speed and driving time, as well as the outside
temperature. I've been getting about 28-32 miles per gallon.

My only real complaint is that the trip computer doesn't display the 
average mpg correctly; my dealer says this will be corrected "soon"...
