Tons of features for next to nothing money.

Insurance is cheap (4years no claims only), good return on long runs (mpg)

On the road
Driving
A bit wobbly on the corners, hopefully new alloys & sports suspension sort that out
Performance
Not the quickest but for something that weighs 1 1/2 tons, not bad. Best suited to cruise at 80 on the motorways.
-
Living with it
Reliability
No probs at all.
Image
Sophisticated working man. (So my missus tells me)
Comfort
When I first bought it I said it was like going to bed and driving. Masses of space and really comfortable. Climate control is a doddle to suss.

Security
Deadlocking. VW have this as standard across the range.
