Thinking of ownership ane. Similar the handling on exam

I'1000 considering buying a 2003 Passat with 74K miles, for the price-betoken/budget. The engine looks clean, the interior & exterior are in pretty good shape for the year, no visible rust. Gonna have a mechanic wait at information technology tomorrow. I've read about sludge & maintenance cost

Ane of best VW ever built

Great legroom, great trunk capacity (who needs a gas-guzzling SUV) and some of the most comfortable bucket seats in the business concern. If you never drove a VW, so you lot should try one onetime. This car has fantabulous power and cornering ability, and the 4Motion system (or Quattro in the Audi) is the best on the market, bar none. The only drawback for me - in this day and age the fuel economy is surpassed past more mod cars. With oil prices increasing again (nobody taking "credit" for the increase?) I need to allow it go.

I bought my Passat carriage in 2011. I've had it for vii years now. I admittedly love the 4motion. I've gone through snow that pickup trucks got stuck in. I live on top of a mountain and have never had a problem getting upward. There is so much room in the back I utilise information technology like a truck. There is enough of leg room both in front and in back. The gas mileage isn't too bad...near 22mpg city and 26 hwy. Only trouble I take is the darn engine low-cal keeps coming on. It drives crawly though.
