ok my sister just got her license and needs a car to drive, she has her heart set on a VW new beetle, probably in the 04-05 year range, she has about 8-9k to spend, we know what miles range we have and whatnot, but what are the problem areas of these cars, and what should we be sure to check on before buying???? any advice is great and appreciated, (o btw it WILL BE a gas powered car w/ an auto trans as she cannot drive stick and is unwilling to learn)

Thanks in advance
