This article is very informative, but poorly written(or translated). I would much like to see the language improved.

I've reworked the "Export to Europe" section, but left the copy-edit tag in place because much of the rest of the article also needs attention. The article is also a bit short (considering its length) of references. I'll try to revisit when I have some more time. — Ched : ? 11:02, 18 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

Also, the As of 2011 the Volkswagen has only two different keys: A master key (which now has the same ribbon finish already seen in the Rabbit/Golf) which opens the passenger doors, the engine cover and the car's ignition; and a smaller second key that opens the fuel tank The hubcaps (which are once again series equipment) currently have a matt grey finish... is either in error, or placed out of continuity. I did change the "Now" to the "2011" as I understood the sentence, but I'm not really sure of the accuracy. — Ched : ? 11:05, 18 April 2011 (UTC)Reply

I also tripped across the above and copyedited it as follows without paying attention to the year: As of 2011, the Volkswagen had only two keys: a master key (with the same ribbon finish used on Rabbit/Golf models) for the passenger doors, engine cover and ignition, and a smaller second key for the fuel tank. The hubcaps, re-introduced as series equipment, featured a matte grey finish. An emergency light button, which was previously unavailable in Mexico, was added to the dashboard, and halogen H4 headlamps became series equipment. While interesting, the details on the keys and the rest aren't important enough to warrant a tag regarding the confusion (they're too confusing to stand because of the darn year...vandalism?...Freudian slip?), so I removed the sentences until someone can determine what was originally intended. BTW, I've made an additional pass over previously edited material, making style improvements of what must have been a real mess before other editors came to the rescue.
