To say I am satisfied is an understatement, I didn't think for one minute that it could surpass my standard for comfort and all round driver satisfaction, but quite amazingly it has on nearly all counts. The deciding factor initially which drove me to go for this model was the reduced price from a local VW dealer. My best friend's dad used to have a Passat also and I was already quite familiar with the model but when I heard of the local dealer's special I decided to go for it. It is a wonderful midsize car, has good economic fuel consumption and has a very good acceleration and a powerful engine. It is all I could ever wish for in a car.

My first car was a used Passat. My parents were comfortable with my driving it because of how safe it was rated. I liked it because it meant freedom!
