Volkswagen Passat Saloon (2000 - 2005) 2.0 Trendline (130ps) 4d Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
Very good car, worth buying. Powerful depending on the engine you've chosen. Economical and very comfortable. Lots of extras and safety features. Easy to drive and park even though it's a big car. Also doesn't look that bad from outside. No major issues specially if the car is maintained properly such as servicing.
How reliable do you find the car?
Strong German Engineering. The only issues that I really had with the car was a thermostat. Due to the engine being more advance that the previous models, it was more electronically build, but the part price wasn't too bad. The suspension is strong so are the other components.Does the car do everything you expected it to do?
It's very nippy for what it is and the way it pulls the 2 tons of its weight is great. It's full of features such as cruise control, electric power steering, ABS, traction control that can be turned off, fully electric windows all round, heated mirrors and indicators build in within mirrors which I personally think looks great. It has trip computer that pretty much tells you everything you need to know, from MPG to the distance you've covered and how many miles you can still do on the fuel you've got. Quiet engine and good sound system as well. Comfortable on long journey and very spacious. Mainly the boot, into which I've been able to fit full set of 4 wheels and still have space for other items. Fairly sized car, but parking is easy in it once you get a feel of your car. Safe as well due to side air bags and other safety features.About their car
