Used Volkswagen Routan for Sale

We currently have a black 2010 VW Routan. When you first look at the car it looks great. The interior is all leather. Both of the front seats have two levels of heating for cold days. There is a large screen navigation, color reverse video view, aux inputs, CD player, as well as front access DVD player. There are two drop down screens for each of the rows. The second row of seats are two large captain chairs. The sliding doors open at a touch of a button. There is also a pull down screen to block sunlight. The back row can accommodate two adults comfortably and 3 children comfortably. The car looks great and has wonderful amenities. However, the drawbacks are all with the structure of the car and maintenance of the car. We have had several flat tires and getting the spare tire is extremely complicated and requires specialized tools to lower it from underneath the car. Additionally the tire pressure monitors frequently erode and cause the tire to become flat. Additionally we have had to replace the brakes and related parts several times. Our mechanic has told us that this is common in this model.

I like that the car seats a lot of people without sacrificing too much in terms of handling and power. The van has a lot of power, good acceleration. It is also fully loaded with lots of different entertainment features -- I wish we had been able to pick and choose only the things we wanted versus having an all or nothing approach, however. My favorite thing about this van is that we can bring our entire family with us, including the dog, with plenty of room left over for cargo. We use the van on road trips a lot, and drive over seven hours at a time in the van. While it doesn't have the best gas mileage, it is certainly cheaper to use the van than to fly to visit far away relatives. This is the main family car, so it gets a lot of use, but has held up pretty well with only one major repair (beyond normal maintenance). It is also very easy to clean, with leather seats and plastic mats.

I Love my VW Routan!! We have five kids between the ages of 10 and 3 years old and this van has made my life so much easier!! We had an SUV before we bout this and the first thing I fell in love with were the power sliding doors and the power rear lift gate. With all these little kids opening a door with a push of a button is awesome. There is plenty of room for all seven of us and all of our things. We took this van on a 12 hour road trip and everyone had enough space and the double screen DVD system was a big hit. I don't think we would have survived with out it. We can fit three bulky car seats and one backless booster with no problem. We live in a state that has cold winters and the four heated seats has been great to have. My kids fight over who gets to sit in the heated seats in the middle row. I feel like it gets good gas mileage for the size of car that it is. We really haven't had many maintenance issues. One of the sliding doors broke but that was a simple fix. I would recommend this van to anyone with a few kids.
