I haven't driven the current generation of VWs, although some friends have them, and a neighbor just got one. They are generally happy with them. Service, though, seems expensive for a moderate-priced car.
One thing to consider, depending on how tall you are... I went to look at Jettas and Beetles maybe 3 years ago and found they had gone to seats with short seat bottoms that gave almost no thigh support. And although the seats adjusted lots of ways, I could not find a comfortable driving position...so I didn't even go for a test drive. I was OK in a Passat, though. Strange. I'm 6'2", but felt like the seats were made for people about 5"9". Don't know if this has changed.
Try to take one out for an hour or so to see how comfortable they are.
