Hey !
I currently have a MK IV Jetta GLS, and the lease is coming to and END.
I'l looking to possibly get a '02 1.8T.
Do you guys know exactly what has changed from my 99 to the new ones ????
I know some basic things, but I would like to get a complete list... and you guys know what you're talking about

I don't know what to do.... I kinda feel that if I trade my 99 in, it's kind of a waste of money... what do you guys think ???
Ideally I want to get the new A4... but it's just a bit too much.

Better cupholders!!

Other things that come to mind....cruise control indicator light, different cruise control operation (either buttons on steering wheel or rocker switch on end of turn signal stalk, depending on if you get leather or not), double-DIN head unit with CD and cassette, 180hp on 1.8T, no rear cupholders, and I think that's about it.

wear indicators..... is that TRUE ???
