having owned 3 Saabs and 5 VWs (though all quite old), Saabs are more fun and actually more reliable, but repairs on VWs when needed are cheaper (I guess we knew that). Old VW biggest irritations are the leaky sunroofs and doors that don't open from the outside (general lack of interior quality). The simplicity and 'straight-forwardness' are nice for a cheapo.
As far as the new ones go, the VWs are nice but incredibly common (I live in yuppie north side of Chicago); I guess kudos to VW for building cars that finally look as cool as they drive, and for improving overall quality, both make all the difference. Still for the bucks, I don't know that I would choose any new VW over competitors. Saabs, definitely.
