Hi everyone! I have a '97 Jetta vr6 and im trying to learn as much as i can about these cars. This is actually my second vr since my last one was stolen a few years back and its been great having another vr.

The A3 Jetta was called the Vento in Australia,and was only sold as a 2.0 GL.
It was sold from mid 1995-early 1997,and only about 400 units were sold new.
Good luck with your VR6.
It was a very popular car in South Africa.

i see. so thats why they put the vento emblems, because of its rarity?

It was also called the Vento in Germany - so you'll probably find the rebadging as Vento in the US is trying to make the cars more "Euro"...
