Volkswagen Passat Saloon (2005 - 2010) 2.0 SEL TDI (170ps) 4d DSG Owner Review
Want to know everything there is to know about this car?
In their own words
having, over the years, driven the best of the best, i was amazed at the quality of this car, the looks, the finish, the comfort, above all the instantly responsive speed, in that alone it is the fastest i have ever owned !! what a pity vw are falling down so completely o a legitimate warranty claim. i detail my own cars, and this one gleams ! making me angry at vw for palming me off even though the 12 year corrosion warranty still has 3 years to run ! laying aside the corrosion issues, this is " one hell of a car " !! on the possible trepidation of depending on a dsg gearbox, dont even give it a second thought ! it is wonderful, and hurtles the car along seamlessly , leaving most other cars for dead ! could go on ( might just buy another one ), but suffice it to say "the germans build great cars, but , if anything goes wrong they will drop you like a bad habit !!!!
How reliable do you find the car?
one of the best, and fastest cars i have owned, pity that vw to date are failing to resolve a corrosion problem on the bonnet, causing me to consider another car makerDoes the car do everything you expected it to do?
apart from my corrosion issues, mechanically the car is beautiful in every way, the dsg box is a dreamAbout their car
